Set on a generous, southerly 0.2-acre plot in the higher part of Hale Barns, this individually designed 1930s detached home blends original character with family-friendly practicality. Tall ceilings, an inglenook fireplace, hardwood floors and a wood-panelled staircase give the principal reception rooms a traditional feel, while PVCu double glazing and gas central heating provide modern comfort. The house is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain.
The ground floor layout suits family life and entertaining: dual-aspect sitting room opening to a stone terrace, separate dining room, family room, fitted kitchen and utility with convenient cloakroom. Upstairs, a generous primary bedroom with fitted furniture and en suite sits alongside three further bedrooms and a fully tiled family bathroom. Loft access offers scope to create extra living space (subject to consents).
Outside the property impresses with mature planting, a large lawn, raised entertaining terrace and a gated carriage driveway leading to a detached double garage with inspection pit. The location is highly convenient — roughly 200 yards from the village centre, close to supermarkets, cafes and well-regarded state and independent schools, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Practical points to note: council tax is Band G and therefore relatively expensive; the glazing installation date is not specified; while the house is well cared for and ready to occupy, there is clear potential (and opportunity) to modernise or remodel to personal taste. Overall this is a substantial family home in an affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with strong commuter and schooling credentials.
