Three-bay cart lodge and traditional stables included
Detached bungalow with countryside and Stour Valley views
Modest internal size ~851 sq ft despite very large plot
Double glazing installed from 2002; mains gas boiler and radiators
Offered with no onward chain; freehold tenure

Requires updating and potential extension to increase living space
Set well back from Crown Street and approached by a private gated drive, this detached bungalow sits within about 1.77 acres (STS) of mature grounds, lawns, hedging and a trio of traditional stables. The site offers excellent seclusion, expansive Stour Valley aspects and practical outbuildings including a three-bay cart lodge — ideal for car storage, workshops or hobby use.
Internally the bungalow provides flexible reception space with multiple rooms overlooking the gardens and countryside beyond. The accommodation will suit families seeking single-storey living close to village amenities, or buyers wanting a country base with scope to reconfigure and modernise. The property benefits from double glazing (fitted from 2002 onwards), mains gas central heating and freehold tenure; it is offered with no onward chain.
Buyers should note the home’s relatively modest internal size (circa 851 sq ft) compared with the very large plot — the house footprint is small for the land it occupies, so significant extension or remodeling would be required to create substantially more living space. Some areas will benefit from updating rather than full refurbishment. Council tax is noted as expensive. Mobile signal is average; broadband is fast.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a private, characterful property in a favoured village location with space, stables and garaging. It will particularly appeal to families who value outdoor space, buyers with equestrian or hobby interests, and those prepared to invest in sympathetic modernisation to realise the site’s full potential.
