Set on prestigious Ivy Lane with open countryside beyond the rear garden, this four-bedroom detached house combines generous family living with a fully self-contained one-bedroom annex. The ground floor centres on a large open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with bi-fold doors that open onto a landscaped, low-maintenance garden with patio, artificial lawn and a dedicated hot tub area — ideal for entertaining and family gatherings. A cosy snug with a feature fireplace offers a quieter living space.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from an en suite; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom provide flexible sleeping arrangements for children, guests or a home office. The annex has its own living area, kitchen and bathroom, offering excellent options for multi-generational living, long-stay guests or rental income.
Outdoors there is a purpose-built summer house currently used as a gym and office, an integral garage with electric roller door and a wide gravel driveway for multiple vehicles. Practical details include double glazing fitted post-2002, mains gas central heating and an EPC rating of C. The property sits in an affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and good access to village amenities, fields and woodland walks.
Considerations: the house was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, so some internal finishes or systems may reflect that era and could benefit from updating to personal taste. Council tax is moderate. Overall, this home will suit buyers seeking countryside views, flexible accommodation and the convenience of ready-to-use annex and outbuilding space.
