The layout suits multigenerational families or buyers seeking rental income from the self-contained annexe. Interiors are spacious with dual-aspect principal rooms, a conservatory, and sizable bedrooms; the principal bedroom includes an en-suite. The annexe offers open-plan kitchen/living, a double bedroom and shower room — useful for guests or holiday rental use.
Practical positives include electric gated parking, productive vegetable beds, espaliered fruit trees and efficient underfloor heating fed from a ground-source heat pump. There is no flood risk and the area is very affluent with low crime and good local schools nearby.
Buyers should note the property is offered requiring renovation and modernisation in parts; cosmetic and possible systems updating will be needed. The EPC rating is E and broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect home working. Council Tax is high (Band F).
