Heath Lodge is a character-filled detached family home set on a generous, privately enclosed plot in the desirable Over Peover village. The period exterior, bay windows and mature landscaped gardens give the property immediate kerb appeal, while the gated gravel driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles. Inside are multiple reception rooms, a bright open-plan kitchen/dining area, and four double bedrooms over two floors — a layout that comfortably suits family living.
The house offers clear potential for improvement and extension (subject to planning permission), making it a strong choice for buyers wanting to add value or personalise their home. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though install date is unknown. The property is freehold and sits outside flood-risk areas, with an EPC rating of D and construction dating from the 1930s–1940s.
Buyers should note the property needs renovation: internal updates are required and cavity walls appear to lack insulation, which will affect energy efficiency. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average in this rural setting. Council tax is described as quite expensive, reflecting the size and location.
Overall, this is a peaceful village family home with established gardens, strong school catchment options nearby and scope to modernise and extend. It will suit a family or purchaser seeking a private rural plot with potential to improve and personalise accommodation.
