Description
The Reading Room is a home steeped in the rich social history of Waddington Village, dating back to circa 1880's when it served as a place for billiards and newspapers, later becoming a registered Working Men’s Club in 1912. Today, it stands as a beautifully characterful stone-built end-of-row cottage, positioned at the very heart of the village and enjoying a picturesque outlook across the gently babbling brook.
A short stroll leads to the village’s excellent amenities, including well-regarded pubs, a primary school, church and recreational spaces, making this an ideal setting for those seeking an authentic and connected village lifestyle.
The accommodation begins with an entrance featuring an original tiled floor and front-facing external door, immediately setting the tone for the period charm found throughout. The living room is warm and inviting, centred around an open fire with tiled hearth, brick inset and Edwardian-style fireplace, complemented by a sliding sash window to the front and a timber floor. To the rear, the dining kitchen offers both charm and practicality, fitted with a range of base and eye-level units with underlighting, SMEG cooking appliances including a gas hob and electric double oven, and space for a tall fridge freezer. Laminate work surfaces with tiled splashbacks, a tiled floor, two windows and a part-glazed door opening to the garden complete the space.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms, the principal bedroom enjoying sliding sash windows to the front and side, a cast iron fireplace and timber flooring. The bathroom is a standout feature, beautifully appointed with a 3pc suite including a freestanding roll-top slipper bath, pedestal wash basin, low-level WC, tiled walls and a chrome towel rail. From the rear of the principal bedroom, a staircase leads to a versatile attic space, ideal for use as a dressing area, occasional sleeping accommodation or a peaceful home office.
To the rear, a delightful walled cottage garden provides a private and tranquil retreat, with patio seating and well-stocked bedding areas bordered by mature flowering plants, shrubs and climbing greenery.
For those wishing to immerse themselves in quintessential English heritage and village life, The Reading Room offers a rare and charming opportunity and one that truly deserves to be experienced in person.
