A substantial five-bedroom period house set well back from the lane on about 0.38 acres, offering generous, versatile accommodation across about 2,610 sq ft. High ceilings, exposed timbers, parquet and wood floors and several fireplaces (including two log burners) give the house strong character and comfortable reception spaces for family life.
The kitchen/dining room with Aga and central island opens to the garden and folding doors lead to a family room, creating a large informal hub. There are three bathrooms, a study/office and a utility room; the utility could form part of a self-contained annexe with its own entrance, offering multigenerational living or rental potential.
The grounds are a key asset: a very large, level rear lawn, paved terraces, mature trees and well-stocked borders provide privacy and scope for extension (subject to consent) or landscaping. Off-street parking for several vehicles is provided by a private gravel drive.
Important practical notes: the house is timber-framed and appears to lack wall insulation (assumed), so energy performance may be below modern standards. Constructed before 1900, it will require ongoing maintenance typical of older properties. Council tax is quite expensive. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, and local schools and village amenities are close by.
