A rare two-bedroom barn conversion set in a small, tucked-away development surrounded by Burroughs Woods and rolling countryside. The detached property offers generous living space across two floors, high ceilings, an 18ft living room with a wood burner, and a dining kitchen with utility area. Ground-floor underfloor heating and double glazing add comfort, while large windows and roof lights flood the interior with daylight.
Externally the house sits on a very large plot with wrap-around lawn, driveway parking and electric gates to the development. The site feels private and semi-rural but remains close to local schools and Forest Hill Golf Club. There is scope to personalise and enhance the gardens and grounds to maximise the setting and views.
Practical points to note: the property uses oil-fired central heating (boiler and radiators) and draws water from a borehole. Waste is handled via a shared septic tank (shared responsibility with three other properties), and there are shared costs for the gated entrance and private roadway. Broadband speeds are very slow in the area. EPC rating D and Council Tax band D.
This home will suit buyers who prioritise privacy, character and outdoor space over urban convenience — ideal for downsizers or professionals seeking a rural retreat with potential to update and personalise.
