Dating from the early 1900s, Badgers Bank is coming to the market for the first time in almost three decades. This detached house sits in the most breath taking setting.
From the reception hall, all the principal rooms unfold with an inviting sense of space. The sitting room or snug enjoys dual-aspect views over the gardens, creating a peaceful retreat for quiet moments. The formal sitting room is a magnificent triple-aspect space centred around a wonderful open fire, offering ample room for both formal dining and relaxed entertaining. A useful downstairs cloakroom with direct access to the garden sits just off this room. The kitchen provides excellent storage and leads seamlessly into a recessed utility room, making everyday living both practical and comfortable.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys lovely views across the gardens and features a full wall of fitted storage. Positioned next door, the bathroom can be linked via an internal door to create a self-contained suite if desired. Three further double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom are thoughtfully arranged along the landing, giving a sense of balance and privacy throughout the first floor.
Outside, the property is approached through a traditional wooden five-bar gate, with plentiful parking available on the gravel driveway and in front of the large garage. The gardens are a standout feature, wrapping gracefully around the house and offering a variety of areas to enjoy. To one side lies a large, mainly lawned expanse that flows into a charming orchard. There is a productive vegetable garden and fruit cages provide an appealing space for those who love to grow their own produce. At the rear, a feature pond which is home to various types of fish that breed and has a filter unit adds tranquillity, while meandering paths bordered by mature flower and shrub beds create a sense of discovery and year-round interest.

On my first visit here we watched a herd of deer from the bedroom window and it registered just how unspoilt the surrounding area is.
