A substantial five-bedroom detached period home set on a very large plot with a self-contained studio annexe and separate commercial barn. The barn has existing B1/B8 planning (Ref: CR/1998/0446/COU) and is currently let, providing immediate rental income alongside flexible accommodation for extended family or multi-generation living.
The house retains character features such as exposed timber beams and traditional window panes but has a number of dated elements—most noticeably the kitchen—and will suit buyers prepared to update finishes. Heating is by oil-fired boiler to radiators; the EPC is rated E. Broadband speeds are slow in this location.
Outdoor space is a key asset: a generous lawned rear garden backing onto open countryside offers privacy and wildlife interest. Practical outbuildings include a double garage/workshop, detached barn with commercial use, and ample off-street parking. Council Tax Band G applies and local crime levels are recorded as very high, which prospective buyers should consider.
This property will appeal to buyers seeking a character home with income potential and space for flexible living. Investors can value the existing commercial letting and annexe rental options, while families will appreciate the large garden and proximity to several well-rated schools. Necessary modernisation and energy improvements are realistic next steps to increase comfort and value.
