This established mid-20th-century detached residence in Lexden offers spacious, versatile accommodation for growing families. Three bedrooms sit above generous living space that includes a bay-fronted lounge, dining room and a brick-based conservatory opening onto the rear garden.
The plot is a standout: a good-size private garden with paved patio, lawn, water feature and treehouse, plus a garden room with vaulted glass ceiling and a cellar suitable for wine storage. Off-street parking and a garage provide secure vehicle space, and the property is offered with no onward chain.
There is clear scope to modernise and personalise throughout; parts of the house would benefit from refurbishment and updating. The layout also creates realistic annexe potential via the side lobby and ground-floor living area, which could suit multigenerational use or rental income.
