Set well back from a quiet country lane, The Brambles occupies about 1.3 acres of mature grounds and offers family-scale living in a mock‑Tudor setting. The house delivers four double bedrooms and three generous reception rooms, centred on an impressive galleried entrance hall. A principal suite with ensuite and private balcony looks over the gardens, while a recently built conservatory and ground‑floor underfloor heating add contemporary comfort.
The plot includes a detached double garage, a useful 24ft outbuilding currently used as a gym, and a self‑contained cottage ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Outdoor features include a sun terrace, well‑kept lawns, mature trees and a Koi pond, which together create a private, rural feeling while retaining easy access to Stock village amenities and main road links.
Practical considerations are straightforward: heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and underfloor system at ground level, broadband speeds are reported as slow in this location, and council tax is on the higher side. The house was constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s and benefits from double glazing installed after 2002, but the substantial grounds and sizeable footprint will require ongoing maintenance and may present scope for extension subject to planning.
This property will suit buyers seeking spacious, secluded family living with flexible ancillary accommodation. It rewards those prepared for countryside living with upkeep responsibilities and who value privacy, generous outdoor space and adaptable accommodation rather than low‑maintenance, urban convenience.
