Set in roughly half an acre beside the Three Pools Waterway, this substantial detached house offers rare semi‑rural living with paddock and former stables. The property is particularly well suited to families seeking space, buyers with equestrian interests or investors planning conversions of outbuildings. The oversized garage, gravel driveway and multiple reception rooms underline the practical potential of the site.
The main house provides generous room sizes across approximately 3,430 sq ft, including three reception rooms, three double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Gas central heating and uPVC double glazing are installed, but much of the interior requires a programme of updating; the building is solid brick (likely uninsulated) and dates from before 1900, so buyers should factor in refurbishment costs and possible insulation or wiring works.
The former stables, tack room and other outbuildings present clear scope for conversion (subject to consents) — a key value driver for someone wanting ancillary income, holiday let use or expanded family accommodation. Note practical drawbacks: broadband speeds are slow, mobile signal is average, and council tax is band E (above average). An inspection is strongly recommended to appreciate the size and conversion possibilities.
This is a property of potential rather than a move‑in finish. For buyers who value land, privacy and conversion upside, it offers a rare plot and room to create a bespoke country home; those seeking a turnkey house in town should be aware of the renovation requirement.
