Set on the edge of Alford with uninterrupted south-facing views across the golf course, this substantial, highly versatile detached house offers nearly 5,000 sq ft of living space arranged over two floors. Built by the current owners to a high specification, the property combines modern performance features — underfloor heating on the ground floor, high-performance glazing, solar panels and storage batteries — with traditional finishes such as oak joinery and decorative cornices. Triple garages, a car port, workshop and two fully lined rooms above a garage increase practical capacity for vehicles, hobbies or small-scale business use.
Accommodation is arranged to support multi-generation living: a principal wing with three reception rooms, a large kitchen/dining/family area, utility and principal bedroom with en-suite, plus a side wing with an additional bedroom, shower room and a large study/office with turret sitting area. There is further potential in the fully lined rooms above Garage 3 and in the landscaped grounds, which include dedicated outdoor entertaining space. The house sits in immaculate condition and has been well maintained by the owners, presenting immediate move-in comfort.
Important practical notes: broadband speeds in the area are currently slow, which may affect heavy home-working or streaming without alternative connectivity solutions. Council tax is very expensive. The broader locality is rural with limited nearby services; however, there is excellent mobile reception and easy access to parks, woodland and local amenities including golf and rail links. Flood risk is reported as none.
This property will appeal to purchasers seeking substantial, flexible accommodation with strong garaging and ancillary space — ideal for multigenerational households, those needing home-office facilities, or buyers wanting room for hobbies and vehicles. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, layout and south-facing aspect over the golf course.
