Set in just over half an acre on a quiet village lane, this detached four-bedroom home combines generous indoor space with extensive gardens and outbuildings. The bright sitting room with a multi-fuel burner and an open-plan kitchen/dining/family area create a welcoming family hub, while a conservatory/utility and downstairs cloakroom add practicality. Two double garages and broad parking suit multiple vehicles, hobbies or storage.
The plot offers real scope: sloped lawns, an orchard, vegetable beds, a summer house and garden features that could be revived or redesigned to create distinct outdoor rooms. Inside, original fittings and exposed floorboards give character and a clear opportunity for updating and reconfiguration to suit contemporary family living.
Important practical points are factual: the property currently has an Energy Efficiency Rating of F, oil-fired central heating, and mostly single glazing with some secondary glazing. Broadband is slow and council tax is above average – factors buyers should budget for when considering improvements and running costs.
This is a family-ready rural home with strong potential for modernisation. It will suit buyers looking for plenty of land, garage/workshop space and the chance to personalise interiors and landscaping rather than someone seeking a turnkey, low-maintenance dwelling.
