Set within about 12 acres of paddocks and outbuildings, this detached dormer-bungalow suits buyers seeking a rural lifestyle, multi-generational home or a small animal-based business. The house provides flexible accommodation including ground-floor living spaces, a conservatory, useful utility and two first-floor bedrooms (one with en-suite). A separate two‑bed lodge, secure kennels and multiple fenced paddocks create clear income or hobby potential.
Practical strengths include extensive off-street parking, large lawned gardens, double glazing and solar panels noted on the roof. The site is already used commercially (kennels currently licensed for up to 114 racing dogs) and could be adapted for equestrian, smallholding or holiday-let uses — subject to relevant licences and consents. Broadband and mobile coverage are reported strong for a rural area.
Buyers should note material running and maintenance facts: primary heating is oil-fired boiler with an external kerosene tank, mains drainage is by underground septic tank, the property has solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation, and the EPC is band D. The outbuildings, kennels and lodge will need ongoing servicing and may require licence transfers, refurbishment or investment to realise rental or business returns.
This is a rare countryside package for those wanting space and scope rather than a turnkey modern home. It will suit purchasers who value land and buildings, can manage rural utilities and are prepared to budget for long-term energy, servicing and any conversion or compliance works.
