Set on just under four acres, this detached 1930s property blends period character with practical countryside living. The house offers a converted loft with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, generous reception rooms, and a conservatory with panoramic views across private woodland, orchards and allotments. There is parking for 10–12 vehicles, a double garage with further covered storage, CCTV, and a newly fitted mains-gas boiler (Dec 2024).
The grounds are the standout asset: fenced allotments, an aviary, multiple chicken coops, a pig pen and well-established fruit trees, plus a private walking route through bluebell-carpeted woodland. That land brings privacy and versatile uses—hobby farming, equestrian/animal keeping, or potential development subject to planning (STP).
Buyers should note practical considerations: the house was built 1930–1949 with solid brick walls (no known insulation), so thermal upgrading may be needed. The expansive plot and outbuildings require ongoing maintenance; some outbuildings and animal pens will need attention if not retained in current use. Council tax is above average.
This property suits families or buyers seeking a private country lifestyle near town amenities—those wanting space, character and scope to adapt. The sale is chain free, offering a straightforward purchase for someone ready to invest in the plot’s potential and upkeep.
