Hunters Lodge is a 17th‑century stone detached home that retains strong period character and offers a large, flexible family layout across approximately 1,510 sq ft. The ground floor provides a sitting room with exposed beams and fireplace, dining hall, separate study and a private enclosed patio; upstairs are three bedrooms including a master ensuite and a further shower room. Driveway parking for several cars plus a car port and generous, divided gardens add practical outside space and privacy.
The house sits in the centre of Acton Turville, within easy walking distance of the village primary school and pub — a rare combination for village living. The plot is notably large for the location, with mature hedging and a secluded patio area ideal for outdoor entertaining or safe children's play. The property is being sold chain free, making it straightforward for a buyer to move quickly.
There are several material things to know: the EPC is rated E and the heating runs from an oil-fired boiler; the external stone walls appear uninsulated and glazing is secondary only. The interior shows character but will need modernization in places (kitchen, some woodwork and general updating) and the property is likely to benefit from planned energy upgrades. Council tax is described as expensive.
This home will suit a family seeking a village base with character and outside space, or a buyer wanting a period property with scope to improve energy efficiency and modern comfort. It is not a turnkey, low-maintenance home — budget for upgrades if energy performance and modern systems are priorities.
