Five bedrooms and four bathrooms, flexible family layout
Homleigh is a spacious five-bedroom detached dormer home on a large plot in the sought-after village of Marshfield. The house offers flexible family accommodation across two storeys: an open-plan lounge/diner, kitchen/breakfast room, family room, utility and a ground-floor bedroom or gym, plus four first-floor bedrooms with two en-suites. An integral double garage, generous driveway parking and an enclosed rear garden with patio and summer house add practical family space.
Stand-out exterior features include a gated shared driveway, lawned front garden and an ornamental Koi pond with waterfall — attractive but requiring regular maintenance. The property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, has double glazing fitted post-2002, mains gas central heating and an EPC of C (69), indicating reasonable energy performance with some scope for improvement.
Buyers should note the home’s footprint is relatively modest for five bedrooms (1,349 sq ft), and the area shows higher local deprivation despite being described as comfortable suburbia. Council Tax sits above average (Band E). Broadband speeds are average, mobile signal is excellent, and there is no flood risk. Overall this is a solid family home with good plot potential and practical parking, best suited to buyers willing to manage pond upkeep and to modernise parts of a late-20th-century build.
For families seeking versatile accommodation and outdoor space in Marshfield, Homleigh offers immediate liveability and opportunities to update to contemporary finishes while benefiting from a private, village setting.
