Summary - Sanssouci, Straight Road, Bradfield CO11 2RA
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large south-facing garden and gated driveway on village edge.
Four bedrooms and two shower rooms across two storeys
Set on a generous corner plot on the edge of Bradfield, this four-bedroom detached house offers spacious family accommodation across two storeys with a large integral double garage and ample off-road parking behind secure gated access. The sitting room opens onto a southerly terrace and private rear garden, creating a bright family living space and a safe outdoor area for children. Ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit modern home working.
The property was built in the early 1980s and retains a mix of early hardwood double-glazed windows and later UPVC units. Heating is provided by an oil-fired boiler serving radiators, with the oil tank located near the drive. The house has good bones and a practical layout — three reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and cloakroom on the ground floor, and four bedrooms plus two shower rooms upstairs.
This home requires renovation and updating throughout; the EPC is rated E and the council tax is Band F, so buyers should allow for energy-efficiency improvements and ongoing running costs. The driveway is currently shared by right of way arrangements and, while the neighbour has indicated willingness to discuss a separate access, any changes would be subject to agreement and planning consent.
For a family seeking a roomy house with a large plot, private gardens and scope to modernise to current tastes, this property offers substantial potential. No onward chain means a straightforward purchase path for buyers ready to take on refurbishment and create a long-term family home in a peaceful village setting.
