Set on the edge of Stanford Rivers with rolling countryside views, this detached four-bedroom house offers exceptionally large family accommodation (approximately 2,919 sq ft) and generous outdoor space. The ground floor delivers flexible living with multiple reception rooms, a contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances, utility room and a practical downstairs shower room suitable for multigenerational use or accessible living.
Outside, a large gated driveway provides secure off-street parking for several cars and easy side access. The rear garden is substantial and well maintained, featuring a raised patio, lawns, mature planting and a versatile three-room outbuilding with WC — useful as a home office, studio or gym subject to any required consents.
Important practical points: the property is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators and the external walls are cavity construction with no confirmed insulation (assumed). Council tax is high (Band G) and the immediate area records higher crime levels; buyers should factor likely running costs and security considerations into their plans.
Offered chain-free, the house suits growing families who need space and outbuilding flexibility and who value rural views while accepting higher running costs and the property’s location within a small hamlet with limited local services. Any conversion or change of use of the outbuilding would require the appropriate permissions.
