Spacious five-bed family home with large plot and flexible living.
Double-fronted Victorian house with large wrap-around gardens
A double-fronted Victorian detached house (built 1881) with generous wrap-around gardens, private driveway and detached garage. Inside, a bright open-plan kitchen with snug and three further reception rooms gives flexible family living and entertaining space. Five bedrooms, an office and two bathrooms suit a growing or multi-generational household. The property extends to about 3,445 sq ft and sits on a large plot in a quiet village setting.
The house offers clear scope for improvement and adaptation: the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, the EPC is rated F and heating is oil-fired (the specification also references a biomass boiler). These factors mean buyers should budget for energy upgrades and potentially higher running costs. Any change of use for commercial or guest accommodation will require planning consent (STPP).
Practical features include a workshop, utility, cloakroom, gated side access and useful outbuildings. The layout already supports a home office and separate ground-floor spaces for different household needs. Broadband and mobile signals are average, and local schools are small and rated Good — suitable for families seeking a rural lifestyle with community amenities nearby.
This is a characterful, substantial period home that rewards sympathetic investment. It will suit buyers wanting space, garden privacy and scope to modernise energy performance and internal finishes to create a comfortable, more economical long-term home.
