Annexe: self-contained one-bedroom with private entrance and internal access
Circa 0.7 acre grounds with orchard, mature trees and patio
Large 6-bed main house (3 en-suites) totalling ~4,079 sq ft
Double garage, car port and multiple useful outbuildings
Period character: exposed beams, feature fireplaces throughout
Requires modernisation; sympathetic updating and insulation needed
Oil-fired central heating; fuel and running costs likely higher
No onward chain; rural hamlet location with long driveway and privacy
A substantial period house set on a very large plot in tranquil Elton, offered with no onward chain and flexible living for multi‑generational occupation. The main home retains strong character — exposed beams, feature fireplaces and generous reception rooms — while a self‑contained one‑bed annexe provides independent accommodation for relatives, guests or rental income. Approached via a long driveway with ample parking, the property includes a double garage, car port and a range of useful outbuildings.
The gardens and grounds (circa 0.7 acres) are a major asset: lawned areas, mature trees, orchard and a patio create private outdoor space and countryside views. There is also a dedicated office and a summer house, supporting home working and leisure uses. Broadband speeds are reported fast and the home occupies a quiet hamlet location with good access to travel networks and nearby schools rated Good–Outstanding.
The house is best described as a characterful, period residence that will reward sympathetic updating. Some areas require modernization — the home is heated by an oil-fired boiler and the original granite/stone walls are likely uninsulated. Council Tax is high (Band G) and the fabric and services will suit buyers prepared for refurbishment rather than a move‑in finish.
This property will suit a large family, multi‑generational household or someone seeking lifestyle space and conversion potential in a rural setting. It offers immediate practical benefits (annexe, garaging, outbuildings) alongside clear scope to improve energy efficiency and interior specification to increase comfort and value.
