A substantial early-1900s family home that blends period character with extensive modern upgrades. The centrepiece is a large open-plan kitchen/diner with underfloor heating and direct access to an 8m x 4m indoor pool, while multiple reception rooms and a separate study offer flexible living for family life and home working.
Five double bedrooms are arranged over three floors, including a generous master with fitted wardrobes and a top‑floor suite featuring a two-person sauna and spa-style en-suite. Practical additions include a double garage with EV charger, detached studio/outhouse, pantry, utility and plentiful built-in storage throughout.
The plot is a major asset: very large private gardens, greenhouse, raised beds, three rainwater harvesting tanks and eight solar panels support low running costs and outdoor family use. Triple/double glazing and modern heating systems complement eco features such as solar panels and an EV charger.
Important practical points: the indoor pool and associated plant require ongoing maintenance and the detached outhouse uses an incinerator toilet rather than mains plumbing. Some parts of the house will benefit from targeted updating and buyers should budget for routine pool servicing and higher council tax costs.
