Spacious single-storey home on a large secluded plot with annex and extension potential.
Farmland and woodland views from the plot
Set on a large, private plot in the sought-after village of Stock, this three/four-bedroom detached bungalow delivers single-storey living with far-reaching farmland views. The house has a character feel throughout, a generous lounge and country-style kitchen with adjoining utility room; a detached annex/garage and parking for several cars add flexible space for guests or home working.
The current owners have occupied the property for over 20 years and report it has been well cared for, creating a comfortable home that is immediately liveable. The wide plot and secluded rear and side gardens provide excellent outdoor space for children and pets, with scope to extend above and to the rear, subject to planning permission (S.T.P.P), for buyers seeking to increase footprint or add an upstairs living area.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the house is freehold and offered chain-free, located in a very low-crime, semi-rural hamlet setting with excellent mobile signal and no flood risk. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and anyone who depends on fast internet should plan for an upgrade. The bungalow footprint is modest (circa 1,000 sq ft) so expansion or modernisation may be required to meet larger household needs.
This home will suit buyers looking for a peaceful, countryside lifestyle within commuting distance, families wanting good local primary schools, or downsizers who prefer single-storey living with room for guests or a dependent relative in the annex. The property’s potential to extend and its generous plot are the primary value drivers for buyers wanting to add value.
