An imposing six-bedroom detached home set on approximately half an acre in sought-after Hale Barns. Extending to about 5,192 sq ft, the house offers substantial living space for a growing or multi-generational family: a double‑height entrance hall, a 40ft drawing room, separate living and dining rooms, conservatory, and a ground-floor bedroom suite that also works well as a home office.
The landscaped rear garden faces south‑westerly and is complemented by mature hedging, a large lawn and patio — ideal for family play, entertaining and extension (subject to consent). A gated drive provides extensive off‑street parking for several cars, giving privacy and convenience for residents and visitors.
Built in the late 1960s–1970s, the property shows solid period construction with brick elevations, tiled roof and double glazing (installation date unknown). Many bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and the principal layout is traditional and well-proportioned, offering clear scope to modernise kitchens, bathrooms and improve energy performance to suit contemporary tastes.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the house is older stock (circa 1967–75) and cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, so upgrading insulation, glazing or heating could be beneficial. Council Tax is Band G and running costs may be higher than modern equivalents. Overall this is a rare, large family home in an affluent area with genuine potential for improvement and long-term family use.
