A substantial detached country residence set within approximately 1.4 acres, combining formal brick architecture with extensive private grounds and open countryside views. The main house offers very large internal floorspace (c.5,248 sq ft) plus a detached annexe/outbuilding and generous driveway with garage and turning area — ideal for multi‑generational living or homeowners seeking large-scale entertaining space.
The property has period‑inspired, symmetrical red‑brick elevations, sash-style glazing and mature landscaped gardens that back onto woodland. Practical features include mains gas boiler with underfloor heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and gated side access to a walled terrace and expansive lawns. Nearby highly rated state and independent schools make this attractive for families.
Important considerations: the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and the solid brick walls are understood to have no cavity insulation, so thermal upgrades and modernisation may be required to improve efficiency. Council tax is high and the local recorded crime level is also high; prospective buyers should carry out their own surveys and security planning. The size and plot present significant potential but will require ongoing maintenance and investment.
Overall, the property suits buyers seeking a rare, large plot in a semi‑rural setting with scope for refurbishment, extension, or equestrian/outbuilding uses. It will particularly reward purchasers prepared to invest in fabric and energy efficiency improvements to unlock its long‑term value.
