The PropertyHaddlesey House is a grand old Manor house steeped in history and full of character and period features. The property dates back to the 1660's when the wing was built, the main house added as an extension in 1789 and has up to seven bedrooms, four bathrooms and a range of versatile reception rooms. The property occupies a good sized plot with mature gardens, circular driveway entered via remote gates and a double garage. Used as a hospital during WW2 for wounded officers, one of whom loved the house and location so much returned after the war and purchased it. Capt. Wayman wanted high ceilings and a ballroom so gutted the house, added the ballroom, grand staircase, larger rooms (including a panelled library, which is now a bedroom) and 'state of the art' bathrooms. The house is built on the site of an older house, where Cromwell and his troops stayed, the night before the battle of Marston Moor, in 1644. In the 1980s, it was lived in by pop-star and producer Bill Nelson (of Be-Bop Deluxe fame). Many music stars stayed at the house and Bill's recording studio occupied the room above the kitchen. The massive window in the main hall is of both stained and hand-painted glass and contains 2 crests - the village crest (the village is in the Domesday book) and the family crest of Capt. Wayman. His crest is also carved in stone in the wall above the orangery.The property is ideal for entertaining or for hosting events such as weddings etc. There are too many character features to mention here but include carved oak doors, high ceilings, detailed ceiling cornices, huge stain glass window, some antique cast iron radiators, bolection moulding panelling, various fireplaces and wood burning stoves.
