This substantial five-bedroom, three-storey detached house offers flexible accommodation for a large or multi-generational family. The principal bedroom and two further first-floor bedrooms each have en-suite facilities, with two additional second-floor bedrooms and a further bathroom providing generous sleeping arrangements and privacy for guests or older children. Large reception space includes a living room with a solid fuel stove, a sitting room opening to a dining room, and a conservatory that brings light and countryside outlooks into daily living.
Externally the property sits on a decent plot with driveway parking and enclosed gardens to the side and rear. The rear aspect looks out across adjoining fields, giving an open, rural feel while remaining on the edge of a small town with local shops and amenities within walking distance. Practical features include a fitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility room, ground-floor WC and mains gas central heating to radiators.
Buyers should note a few material points: the home dates from the 1980s and double glazing appears to have been installed before 2002, so some windows or internal finishes may be dated or less energy-efficient than modern replacements. Council Tax is band E (above average) and the multi-storey layout will be less suitable for anyone with significant mobility needs. The area registers higher levels of deprivation than average, which may influence local services and long-term resale dynamics.
Overall, the house will suit a family seeking space, multiple bathrooms and countryside views, or a buyer wanting to update and personalise a roomy 1980s property. It offers immediate liveability with clear potential for cosmetic modernisation and efficiency upgrades to increase comfort and value.
