Spacious family house set in extensive private grounds with pond and parking.
Grade II listed 17th-century wing with original period features
A rare Grade II listed wing of Scott's House, set within extensive private grounds, this semi-detached period home combines 17th-century charm with practical family living. The property’s original features — high ceilings, stone exterior, conservatory and mature gardens with a pond — give a distinctive, welcoming character. The house is chain free and offers generous parking for up to four cars plus a separate single garage.
Accommodation includes a garden room, lounge, kitchen with dining room, ground-floor bathroom, and three first-floor bedrooms (master with ensuite) alongside additional cloakroom and storage. The large plot and enclosed front gardens provide privacy and attractive outdoor space; a rear courtyard adds a low-maintenance area for everyday use.
Important practical points: the listed status brings historic interest but also regulatory restrictions and potential extra costs for alterations or repairs. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average. Crime levels are recorded as high locally, and Council Tax sits above average — all factors buyers should weigh alongside the property’s charm.
This home suits buyers who prioritise period character, outdoor space and history and who are comfortable managing listed-building responsibilities. For those seeking a tranquil semi-rural setting with space and original detailing, the property offers strong appeal; buyers wanting immediate modern connectivity or unrestricted renovation may face some compromises.
