Set back on a double-width plot in a sought-after semi-rural village, this deceptively spacious detached house extends to about 2,400 sq ft and suits larger or multi-generational families. The ground floor offers flexible living with an open-plan kitchen–family room, separate reception rooms and a versatile 4.8 x 4.5m room off the garage with annexe potential. The property is offered chain free.
The gardens are a defining feature: extensive flagged patios, a large curved lawn and an uninterrupted outlook over adjoining fields. Parking is generous on the wide driveway and there is integral access to a 7.6m garage for storage. Many principal rooms benefit from dual aspects and countryside views, creating bright, sociable living areas.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important. The home was modernised to a good standard, with double glazing installed post-2002 and a mains gas boiler with radiators. However, broadband speeds are slow and the neighbourhood is flagged as relatively deprived; the house is on cavity walls where original insulation is assumed absent. Council tax is described as expensive. Buyers should also note an ambiguity in construction records and confirm exact build details as part of due diligence.
Overall this property will suit families seeking roomy accommodation, outdoor space and the option of ground-floor annexe or home-office use. The combination of plot, flexibility and rural outlook represents strong long-term appeal, balanced by a need to check energy/insulation and connectivity for modern working-from-home requirements.
