Woodlands is a striking early-20th-century detached country home sensitively restored to combine period charm with contemporary comfort. The main house offers six bedrooms across generous, high‑ceilinged rooms while a converted outbuilding provides two self-contained apartments — ideal for extended family living, live‑in staff, or rental income.
Practical improvements include a new slate roof with added insulation, full rewiring and replumbing, and a new mains gas central heating system split across two independently controlled boilers. Sustainable additions — an air‑source heat pump for the annexe, improved insulation and a rainwater well — reduce running costs and add future resilience.
The house sits on a very large, manicured plot with mature trees, a gazebo, gravel driveway and a detached double garage. Its village setting gives countryside peace while local primary schools and basic amenities remain accessible. For buyers seeking space, character and multi‑generational flexibility, this property offers a turnkey country residence with excellent scope for continued personalisation.
Notable practical points: drainage is via a cesspit located outside the property boundary and a restrictive covenant grants a right of way over the neighbouring field to access and maintain it. Broadband is FTTC with comparatively slow speeds in the area. Council tax is at the higher band G. These factors are important for buyers who rely on fast internet, prefer mains drainage, or are sensitive to on‑going local service arrangements.
