Large private garden and scope to create a tailored family home through refurbishment.
Chain-free four-bedroom detached home on a large, mature plot
Requires full modernisation throughout including kitchen and bathroom
Two spacious reception rooms with bay windows to the front elevation
Single garage, outbuilding and driveway providing off-road parking
Solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) — insulation likely required
Energy Rating E and very slow broadband; service upgrades advised
Garden overgrown but private, backs onto open playing fields
Narrow driveway access and mature trees require maintenance
Set on a generous plot in the popular village of Dunton Bassett, this four-bedroom detached home offers substantial potential for a family seeking space and future improvement. The house is chain-free and occupies about 1,356 sq ft with two reception rooms, a single garage, and an outbuilding — a flexible canvas for refurbishment or modest extension (subject to planning).
The property requires complete modernisation throughout: the kitchen and bathroom are dated, heating is via a gas boiler and radiators, glazing is double but install date is unknown, and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated. Energy rating E and very slow broadband reflect the need for upgrading; purchasers should allow budget for new services, insulation and general refurbishment.
Outside, the wide mature plot and generous rear garden are standout features, backing onto open playing fields and offering privacy and scope for landscaping, extension or redevelopment (planning dependent). Note the established trees will need management and the driveway is relatively narrow, providing parking for one car plus additional hardstanding.
This home will suit families who value village living and want to add value through refurbishment. It’s an attractive opportunity for buyers prepared to modernise to create a comfortable, efficient family house in a tranquil, well-connected rural location.
