Large private grounds and versatile outbuildings ideal for family country living.
Grade II listed detached house on just under 7.5 acres
This Grade II listed five-bedroom detached house sits on just under 7.5 acres of private grounds, offering rare scale and privacy in a village setting. The house combines period character—dormer windows, an inglenook fireplace and mature landscaping—with generous family-sized accommodation and a variety of useful outbuildings including a double garage, greenhouse and an office.
The layout provides flexible space: ground-floor reception rooms, a study, a bedroom and bathroom useful for guests or multigenerational living, while upstairs houses four further bedrooms including a principal suite with en-suite. Grounds include extensive lawns, mature trees, a brick-laid pond and a newly built powered summer house that creates a secluded entertaining spot.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status: any alterations or extensions will be subject to listed-building controls and may be difficult and costly to obtain. The internal condition has not been inspected in detail here, so the house may require updating or renovation in parts. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the area records higher crime levels than average, which some purchasers will factor into their decision.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, no flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working from the separate office. The plot’s scale and outbuildings offer scope for hobby farming, equestrian uses or landscaping projects, but prospective buyers should confirm permitted uses and planning constraints given the listing and local area classification.
