Generous 4-bed period house with large garden, summerhouse and separate insulated studio.
Double-fronted detached stone house on Whittingham Village Green
A handsome double-fronted stone family house set directly on Whittingham Village Green, offering generous living space and mature private gardens of roughly a fifth of an acre. The ground floor is arranged around two reception rooms and a large dining kitchen with island and Aga — a natural hub for family life and entertaining that opens onto decked sun terraces, a summerhouse and bar. An insulated external studio provides a useful home office or hobby room.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms, the principal enjoying an en-suite and green outlook, plus a spacious family bathroom with freestanding bath and walk-in shower. The property is presented with period details intact: oak flooring, stained glass inserts, exposed stonework and original fireplaces (log burning and open fire), giving character and a cosy feel.
Practical facts you should know: the house is stone-built with assumed uninsulated solid walls, fitted with double glazing installed before 2002 and served by oil-fired central heating (boiler replaced December 2022). EPC rating D and council tax in a higher band reflect the property’s age and running considerations. There is private off-street parking for 3–4 cars, mains services and full fibre broadband available.
This home will suit a family seeking character, space and village life, and buyers who value a well-presented period property but are realistic about ongoing running costs and potential improvement work (wall insulation/upgraded glazing) to improve energy performance.
