Set within about 1.25 acres of private, landscaped grounds with a well-maintained tennis court, this 1930s detached house and separate annexe offer flexible family living in a peaceful rural hamlet. The main house has recently been refreshed, with light-filled reception rooms, a character drawing room with open fireplace and an open-plan kitchen/dining area opening onto a generous paved terrace—ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining.
The annexe provides independent accommodation (ground-floor bedroom, bathroom and garage space, plus first-floor open-plan living) and could be reconfigured further subject to planning, offering scope for multigenerational living or guest/holiday use. Practical features include solar panels, an electric vehicle charging point and detached garaging with additional storage; mobile signal and broadband are strong, and there is no recorded flood risk.
Buyers should note a few material details: the house is heated by an oil-fired boiler and on private drainage; cavity walls appear to lack modern insulation; and council tax is very expensive. While the property is newly renovated and presented well, any purchaser wanting to reduce running costs or alter layouts should factor potential upgrade works into their plans.
This home will suit families seeking seclusion, space and countryside living with easy road and rail access to larger towns. Local primary and independent schools are within reach, and nearby stations provide commuter links to London, making the house appealing for those who need rural tranquillity without being cut off.
