Council tax described as quite expensive
Set back in about 0.34 of an acre, this double-fronted Tudor-revival detached house pairs generous plot size and period character with clear scope for improvement. Rooms are well-proportioned across roughly 1,804 sq ft, with a double-aspect living room, family room, breakfast room and a useful utility/boot area. Mature trees and far-reaching countryside views to the rear give a private, semi-rural feel favored by families.
The house retains period features — leaded coloured-glass windows, cornicing, panelled doors and a stone fireplace — but requires sympathetic renovation throughout. Accommodation includes four bedrooms, a study, a family bathroom plus a separate cloakroom; the layout suits family life but the single family bathroom is a limitation for four bedrooms and will likely need updating.
Practical strengths include a detached double garage, wide driveway, and established gardens with scope for landscaping or extension. A Eurocal oil-fired boiler is installed (located in the utility), and the property description notes boiler and underfloor heating elsewhere; buyers should confirm servicing history and heating fuel arrangements. Planning options have been referenced for potential redevelopment of the garage plot, presenting scope for extension or ancillary accommodation subject to consent.
This is a genuine renovation opportunity in an affluent village setting with very low crime, fast broadband and good local schools. It will suit buyers seeking a character home to update, those wanting a large private garden, or developers able to take on a sympathetic refurbishment.
