Elegant family home on three acres with stables and detached home office.
Four double bedrooms; principal bedroom with en-suite
A beautifully presented four-bedroom family home set within a park-like plot of over three acres, including a paddock, two stables and a tack room. The house blends traditional Tudor Revival character with comfortable, practical family spaces: a bespoke kitchen with AGA and island, a large breakfast room, sitting room and conservatory, plus a separate family room — both with wood burners. Light-filled double-aspect bedrooms include a principal suite with en-suite; there is also a detached home office, double garage and generous driveway parking.
The grounds are a standout: mature trees, specimen shrubs, fruit trees, a vegetable plot and a wildlife-attracting pond create a private, pastoral setting that suits family life and small-scale equestrian use. For home-workers, the detached office offers separation from family living. Broadband speeds are fast and the property sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with strong nearby schools, including an outstanding secondary.
Practical points to note: the house dates from before 1900 and external walls are sandstone/limestone with assumed lack of insulation, which will influence heating efficiency. The EPC is E and running costs (including a fairly expensive council tax band) should be considered. Extensive grounds and older fabric will require ongoing maintenance and garden management. No flood risk is reported.
This home will suit buyers seeking rural privacy and substantial outdoor space close to town-fringe amenities, particularly families or those with an interest in equestrian or large-garden living. The combination of period charm, useful outbuildings and flexible living accommodation offers clear potential for modernisation to improve energy performance and personalise the house to contemporary family needs.
