Summary - Willowbank, Hastingwood Road, Hastingwood CM17 9JL
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Wrap-around gardens and far-reaching rural views for growing families.
Five double bedrooms, including two en‑suites
Set on a large plot with far-reaching views over open farmland, this substantial five-double-bedroom detached house suits a growing family seeking space and privacy. The ground floor layout includes a generous 30' reception hall, a large living room with picture windows, dining room, study, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and a ground-floor bedroom with shower room — useful for guests or multi‑generational living.
Upstairs there are two principal bedrooms with en‑suites, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom, arranged off a galleried landing. The wrap‑around landscaped gardens, two patio areas, greenhouse and brick shed create multiple outdoor rooms and strong potential for family entertaining, hobbies or a home allotment. Off‑street parking for up to five vehicles adds everyday practicality.
Important practical points: the house is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, double glazing of unknown install date, and cavity walls with partial insulation assumed. The property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and will benefit from some updating and ongoing maintenance. Council tax is noted as quite expensive and the recorded local crime level is high; the location is a quiet, semi‑rural hamlet offering privacy but more distance from town amenities.
Overall this is a roomy, well‑proportioned family residence with impressive gardens and countryside views, offering immediate comfort and scope to personalise and improve heating, insulation and internal finishes to modern standards.
