Set on a large plot in the peaceful village of Doulting, this 1930s detached family home combines period character with a modern converted-cottage feel. The house offers flexible accommodation across multiple floors — a triple-aspect lounge, kitchen/breakfast with snug, utility room and a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite, plus four further bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. With about 1,629 sq ft of space and roughly eight rooms, it suits a growing family who need separate living and sleeping zones.
Outside there are generously sized front and rear gardens and a gravel driveway providing off-street parking. The property is offered freehold and chain-free, so it could suit buyers wanting a quicker move. Broadband speeds are recorded as fast and the area is affluent, although the hamlet setting means a quieter, more rural lifestyle with average mobile signal and limited local services.
Practical points to consider: heating is by oil central heating, and council tax is above average. Nearby schooling includes a mix of state and independent options; a number of local primary schools have Ofsted ratings of "Requires improvement." The location is part of a remoter rural community, which will appeal to those seeking countryside living but may be less convenient for frequent commuting.
Overall, the property offers immediate comfort with scope for personalisation. It will particularly suit families or buyers seeking a well-proportioned period home in a quiet village setting, who are comfortable with oil heating and a rural address.
