Set on a large plot in a quiet no-through lane, this five-bedroom detached house delivers flexible family space across about 2,561 sq ft. The home opens with an inviting entrance hall, a very large double-aspect living room with a recessed snug and separate study, plus a 24' lifestyle kitchen/dining room with quality quartz surfaces and many built-in appliances. Bifold doors and generous windows bring natural light and a direct connection to the extensive rear garden that faces attractive farmland.
Practical comforts include ground-floor underfloor heating, first-floor radiators fed by a gas boiler, a pressurised water system and a useful cloakroom. The house offers scope for multi-generational living or home working with five bedrooms and three bathrooms, including dual basins in at least one bathroom. Driveway parking is generous and the plot size supports play areas, gardening or future extensions subject to planning.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property has an EPC rating of D, double glazing fitted before 2002, and cavity walls that are assumed uninsulated — upgrading thermal performance would improve comfort and running costs. The house dates from the 1930s–40s so some maintenance or modernisation may be needed to bring systems and finishes fully up to contemporary standards. Council tax is moderate and the location is very low crime with fast broadband, making it practical for family life and remote working.
This home will suit growing families seeking a roomy village setting with excellent local and independent schools nearby, strong community amenities and easy access to surrounding countryside. It balances immediate liveability with clear potential for energy improvements and updating according to buyer priorities.
