A tucked-away detached home in Horsted Keynes, this four-double-bedroom property offers comfortable family living across 1,846 sq ft on a large east-facing corner plot. The house combines an extended sitting room with a feature open fire, an open-plan kitchen/dining area with conservatory, and useful ancillary rooms including a workshop/utility and an integral garage. The wide block-paved driveway and additional timber boathouse/barn add practical parking and storage for family needs or hobbies.
The plot is a major asset: approximately 45' x 135' (max) with mature planting, privacy and a true village feel within easy walking distance of the primary school, local shops, pubs and open countryside. Vacant possession and no onward chain make this move-ready for buyers who want to settle quickly or owners seeking a roomy family home in a prosperous rural neighbourhood.
Buyers should be aware of a number of practical points. The property has an EPC rating of E and oil-fired central heating, cavity walls without added insulation (assumed) and double glazing fitted before 2002 — all factors that may mean higher running costs and future improvement work. The interior and some fixtures are dated and would benefit from updating to improve efficiency and to suit modern tastes. Council Tax sits in Band F and should be factored into ongoing costs.
This house will suit families seeking space, a large private garden and village living who are prepared to carry out energy-efficiency upgrades and cosmetic modernisation. For purchasers prioritising location and plot size over a turnkey finish, the home offers immediate occupation and clear potential to add value with targeted improvements.
