Set on approximately 0.7 acres in Stanford Rivers, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers expansive countryside views and generous family accommodation. The ground floor centres on an open-plan kitchen, dining and family space with integrated appliances and large sliding doors that connect directly to the landscaped garden, while a separate living room provides a formal entertaining area.
Practical features include gated off-road parking, an attached double garage, two downstairs WCs and a utility room. The first floor houses a principal bedroom with dressing area and en suite plus four further bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom, giving flexible space for family life, guests or home working.
Important facts to note: the property was constructed in the late 1960s/early 1970s and has cavity walls assumed without added insulation, and it is heated by an oil-fired boiler (oil not on a community supply). Council tax is described as quite expensive and crime levels in the area are reported as high. While double glazing has been installed since 2002 and the plot is very large with mature screening, prospective buyers should allow for possible maintenance, energy-efficiency upgrades and verification of services before exchange.
This house will suit buyers seeking a spacious countryside family home with strong outdoor space and parking, and those prepared to invest in energy and fabric improvements to enhance long-term running costs and comfort.
