This deceptive four-bedroom village home combines genuine period character with practical modern systems. The oldest part dates to the 1700s with a 1919 extension, giving generous living space across multiple levels and an authentic stone façade with period windows. Spacious living rooms include an open fireplace and a multi-fuel burner, offering cosy, characterful focal points for family life.
Outdoor space and parking are stand-out practical assets: a former stable yard provides off-street parking and two garages, plus a versatile gym/garden room that could remain a hobby space or be repurposed. The plot is a decent size for the area and the setting is a small-town, affluent village with very low crime and good local schools nearby.
There are a few material points to note. The stone walls are assumed uninsulated and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so thermal performance may lag modern standards. The property shows some fixer-upper aspects and will benefit from targeted updating and insulation investment to improve comfort and running costs. Tenure is freehold and there is no identified flood risk.
This house will suit buyers seeking a characterful family home in a peaceful village setting who value original details and outside space, and who are prepared to carry out refurbishment to unlock the property’s full potential.
