Set on a large plot in the sought-after village of South Croxton, this three-bedroom detached home offers generous family living and clear renovation potential. The layout includes a spacious 21ft lounge, separate dining room, conservatory and a kitchen/breakfast room, with a master bedroom enjoying an ensuite and countryside views. Outside there is a large south-facing rear garden, paved patio, double garage and a wide block-paved driveway.
Offered chain free, the property is best suited to buyers prepared to modernise: the kitchen and bathrooms require updating and some areas show typical wear from a 1970s build. There is scope to enlarge the footprint, with side space available to extend subject to planning permission, and the first-floor storage areas could potentially be converted to additional accommodation.
Practical points to note: the home is freehold and spacious at about 1,467 sq ft, but it sits in Council Tax Band F which will be relatively costly. Mobile signal is poor on site and local crime levels are above average; broadband speeds are described as average. These are important facts for families or downsizers to consider against the property’s countryside setting and proximity to a highly rated primary school.
This house will appeal to a family or buyer seeking a roomy village home with immediate outdoor space and long-term value uplift through refurbishment or extension. Viewing is recommended for those wanting a project with strong scope and an attractive south-facing garden.
