Sunnyside is a substantial early 20th‑century family home in the heart of Capel village, offering character features, bay windows and high ceilings. The layout works well for family life with a large sitting room, separate dining room, fitted kitchen, utility and ground‑floor bathroom, plus four bedrooms upstairs including a main bedroom with en‑suite.
A major practical advantage is the self‑contained annex with separate access from The Street: a sitting room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. The annex has been let successfully in the past (qualified under the Rent a Room scheme), providing a proven income stream, or it can be reconfigured and incorporated back into the main house to increase accommodation.
Outside, the west‑facing garden is a standout feature with a patio, level lawn, mature planting and a powered summer house suitable for a home office. The property also includes a double integral garage and off‑street parking, set in a quiet village location with excellent mobile and fast broadband.
Practical points to note: glazing was installed before 2002 and may not meet current thermal standards, council tax is above average, and integrating the annex would require reconfiguration work. Overall this freehold home suits a family seeking village living with flexible accommodation or an owner‑occupier/investor looking for rental income potential.
