Originally the Reservoir House, Waterside Lodge was
constructed in 1895 to exacting Victorian standards, and in
more recent years the house has been significantly
renovated, modernised and extended, with no expense
spared. The renovation work has enhanced the inherent
character of the property, including the re-fitting of the
kitchen with a fabulous Smallbone of Devizes kitchen
complete with Miele appliances. A former stone outbuilding
is now a smart detached self-contained annexe, ideal for
visiting relatives or for letting out, and the house has been
extended on the ground floor to provide a Cloakroom, Utility
and entrance area - Planning Permission has been granted
to further extend this area, and also to create an impressive
Double Bedroom on the first floor which would have a
magnificent panoramic outlook, with an en suite Bathroom
and Study Area.
Heated throughout by an oil-fired radiator system, the
accommodation is described in brief below using
approximate room sizes:-

outer door. Radiator.

Smallbone of Devizes handcrafted units with Italian black

THE ANNEXE Originally a detached stone outbuilding, the
