A generously proportioned four/five-bedroom detached house set on about a third of an acre, Berkham Ridge combines modern upgrades with genuine country living. The property has been redecorated throughout, with three newly refitted bathrooms, a fitted kitchen and separate utility, and flexible living spaces including an office and conservatory. South-facing gardens back onto open countryside and include a newly relined heated swimming pool, pool house and outbuildings totalling 423 sqft.
Practical, energy-saving features include fitted solar panels (generating c.£2,500 pa) and an EV charging point. There is a garage plus ample driveway parking for several cars, a soundproofed insulated garden room ideal for a home office or leisure use, and multiple paved entertaining areas with a koi pond and greenhouse.
Buyers should note material negatives: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, double glazing installed before 2002 (older frames), and council tax is described as quite expensive. The location is semi-rural — peaceful and set back from the road behind hedging — but the nearest mainline station is 2.5 miles away, so a car is practical for daily commuting.
This home will suit families who want space, home-working facilities and outdoor leisure, or buyers seeking a turn-key country house with scope to personalise. Viewings will show a well-presented house with significant outdoor amenity; prospective purchasers proceeding without a physical visit should make additional investigations to satisfy themselves of all requirements.
