Set on a large plot in a peaceful hamlet, this five-bedroom detached chalet offers generous, light-filled family accommodation over multiple levels. Period features include a large traditional living room with a fireplace and decorative ceiling; several double bedrooms have private balconies with wide views across the neighbouring farmland. The layout suits multi-generational living, home offices or flexible family use, with large reception rooms and storage throughout.
Practical features include a long gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles and two attached garages providing substantial secure storage or workshop space. The mature rear garden backs onto open fields, creating a private, rural setting ideal for outdoor family life and safe play.
Buyers should note the property’s traditional construction: granite or whinstone walls likely lack insulation, and the house uses oil-fired central heating with a boiler and radiators. Broadband speeds are very slow in this area, and the house will benefit from updating and insulation upgrades to improve energy efficiency and running costs. The building dates from before 1900, so buyers should expect period-maintenance considerations.
This home will appeal to families seeking space, countryside views and good local schools nearby. With planning and investment, there is strong potential to modernise heating, insulation and connectivity while retaining character features and maximising the sizable plot.
