Portway House is a substantial, characterful detached country home set in over 3 acres of mature gardens, with the option to acquire up to c.8 acres by separate negotiation. The house offers four double bedrooms, four bath/shower rooms, multiple reception rooms and flexible ground-floor accommodation that could suit intergenerational living or home working. A large double garage, extensive workshop with two car ramps and additional stores will appeal to hobbyists and car enthusiasts.
The interior combines traditional proportions—high ceilings, decorative cornicing and period arches—with contemporary conveniences: a well-equipped kitchen with built-in Bosch and Neff appliances, ground-source heat pump with underfloor heating, double glazing and a useful cellar. The side conservatory and sun room provide bright, usable living space overlooking a south-facing terrace and garden, ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Externally the plot is a major asset: landscaped lawns, orchard, woodland planting, natural pond, greenhouse and several outbuildings. There is full planning consent (24/01458/FUL) for two detached dwellings on part of the plot, offering redevelopment or investment potential. Additional grazing/pasture land to the west (circa 5 acres) may be available separately.
Notable practical points: broadband speeds are slow, council tax is high and the property sits in an ageing rural neighbourhood with deprived area indicators locally. The large plot and outbuildings will require ongoing grounds and building maintenance. Purchasers should confirm boundaries and any implementation requirements before pursuing the planning consent.
