Wealthyton House and Shop is an attractive package offering huge scope for further development, and would suit a purchaser wishing to run a business from home. Wealthyton House is a substantial granite family home which has been comprehensively upgraded by the seller including replastering, newly fitted pressurised hot water system, up-graded electric distribution board and new flooring throughout along with one new W/C on the ground floor and two new bathrooms on the first floor. The property has double glazing throughout. The adjacent Wealthyton Shop is deceptively large and could suit a variety of uses as retail or commercial premises or alternatively there is currently planning in principle to convert to three residential townhouses.

Wealthyton House is a detached two storey family home dating from 1804. The seller has comprehensively upgraded the property throughout and it is now a very comfortable family home. The property has been re-plastered and has new flooring throughout along with having the water system and electrics significantly upgraded. Included in the sale is an adjacent former shop building.

A shared, tarred drive leads to double entrance gates allowing access to the walled front garden. The drive continues to a parking area adjacent to the shop building with a pedestrian gate to the front garden, following the drive to the rear of the property leads to a double garage and parking at the rear of the property also. The solid wood front door with glazed panels either side opens to the vestibule which has coat hooks and laminate flooring. There is a part glazed inner door to the hall and a side door to the sitting room.

The hall has a beautiful staircase with hardwood handrail, wrought iron spindles and features a runner carpet.

The sitting room is a square proportioned bright room overlooking the front garden. The focal point is a tiled fireplace around an open fire with arched alcoves either side with low level storage cupboards.

Across the hall is the dining room which is also south facing and has a marble fireplace and hearth with wooden mantelpiece around an electric fire. There is an arched alcove with low level storage. An opening from the dining room leads to the kitchen which has an extensive range of wall and base units. Integrated appliances include a four ring gas hob and two electric ovens. There is a stainless steel sink with mixer tap, a freestanding dishwasher and American style fridge freezer.

A rear hall connects to the kitchen, utility room and the cloakroom/WC. The utility room has base units with ample work space and there is plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer.

A generous bedroom at the rear of the property completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor landing leads to three generous bedrooms, bedroom 5/study and the family bathroom. The south facing principal bedroom is a lovely bright room overlooking the front garden. The large, recently upgraded en suite is beautifully presented with a large walk in shower with rainfall and handheld shower and a vanity unit with twin wash basins.

Bedrooms 3 and 4 are generously proportioned double bedrooms with front and rear aspects respectively. Bedroom 5/study is ideal as a study or single bedroom. The family bathroom has also been recently upgraded and has a roll top freestanding bath and a large walk in shower.

Garden:
The walled front garden is laid mostly to lawn with mature trees and conifers. A sweeping granite chip drive leads to the front of the house. The back garden is also laid to lawn and has a garden shed. The tarred drive continues past the shop to the rear of the house and onto the double garage. Adjacent to the house to the west is a paved area which has potential for a further double garage or car port.

There is a double garage with a sliding wooden door.

Wealthyton Shop:
Built in the late 1700s, this two storey, former village shop, post office and associated stores is a fantastic opportunity for a purchaser to create a home-based business or work premises. Alternatively, there is currently outline planning permission to convert the buildings into three residential townhouses, each with a garden. The stone and slate village shop closed in 1984 and the seller recently operated a pet shop from the premises. The shop has newly insulated walls and ceiling and at the rear is a large store room. The first floor has two large stores. Adjacent to the shop is a former warehouse. There is a lean to former post office which closed in 1996 and a lean to former worker's bedroom.
