Charming 3-bed period house with garage, parking and large garden in picturesque Rode.
No onward chain — immediate purchase possible
Set in the heart of historic Rode, 16a Marsh Road is a three-bedroom semi with clear village-green views and a strong sense of place. The property sits over three floors and retains many original period features — exposed stonework, an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove and characterful beams — offering immediate charm for buyers who value character. The sale is offered with no onward chain.
Practical strengths include a larger-than-average garage, carport and off-road parking for up to three vehicles, a newly fitted gas boiler with Hive thermostat, mains gas central heating and double glazing. The generous rear garden rises to additional parking and outbuildings, giving scope for outdoor living or modest extension subject to planning.
The house requires modernisation throughout: kitchens, bathrooms and some internal finishes will need updating to meet contemporary expectations. Broadband speeds are slow locally, which may affect home working despite excellent mobile signal. The EPC rating is D and there is one main bathroom — important considerations for growing families or buyers seeking a turnkey move.
This home will suit a family or purchaser looking for a characterful village property with parking and development potential, rather than someone seeking a fully refurbished, low-maintenance house. The location — close to local shops, two pubs, a primary school rated Good and countryside walks — is a major draw for village living.
