3.25 acres with planning for stables and riding arena — viewing essential.
Three/four bedroom detached bungalow, newly renovated in 2024
Thornycroft is a newly renovated three/four bedroom detached bungalow set centrally within c.3.25 acres, offering an immediate move-in finish with strong equestrian potential. The accommodation includes a lounge with new log burner, a recently fitted kitchen opening to a spacious orangery, and flexible rooms suitable for a home office or fourth bedroom. Major recent works completed in 2024 include full re-wire, new oil boiler, extensive replastering, UPVC fascias, and a new sewerage treatment plant.
The extensive plot includes approximately 2.8 acres of rear paddock and two wide frontages to Broad Lane. Planning permission (ref: 24/00199/FUL) has been granted for change of use to equestrian, plus erection of three stables, feed room, hay barn and a 40m x 20m riding arena — a clear value driver for buyers with horses or small-holding ambitions. Three mobile field shelters on skids are on site and may be available by separate negotiation.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the bungalow is oil-heated with radiators, has UPVC double glazing, a single shower room, and an integral garage with workshop and store rooms. The setting is quiet and rural with low crime, but broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal only average; the location suits buyers prioritising land and privacy over urban connectivity. Viewing is essential to appreciate the plot, layout and scope for the approved equestrian development.
Potential buyers should be aware of material facts: heating is oil-fired (not mains gas), there is a single shower room (no en suite), and further building work will be required to implement the planning permission. The property’s size, recent renovations and substantial plot make it especially attractive to equestrian owners, small-holders or buyers seeking a spacious single-level home in a sought-after village setting.
