Approximately 1.3-acre plot with orchard, vegetable beds and small grazing paddock
A handsome period detached house set in about 1.3 acres, offering elevated countryside views and genuine indoor–outdoor living. The house balances character features — an inglenook with log burner and sash-style proportions — with contemporary comforts including a modern kitchen with underfloor heating, two ensuite bedrooms and an updated family bathroom.
The ground floor is arranged for family life and entertaining: a light-filled lounge with patio doors, a triple-aspect garden/games room and a large open-plan kitchen/dining/family room that opens onto a generous patio and ornamental pond. Practical spaces include a utility room, ground-floor WC and useful outbuildings including a former garage/workshop and a brick folly that could be converted subject to planning.
Outside the mature, largely level grounds are a major asset: formal lawns, a fenced vegetable plot with raised beds, a small orchard and a grazing paddock suitable for small livestock. Parking and storage are well catered for by a triple-bay oak car port (EV charging point) and a triple garage. Environmentally, the house benefits from solar panels and air-source heating which will help running costs.
Important practical points: the property is accessed via a long farm track (annual payment of £5) across private common land, and the location carries a high flooding risk which will affect insurance and use of some parts of the grounds. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. Overall, this home will suit buyers seeking rural space, character and scope for outdoor hobbies, while accepting location-related considerations.
