About this property

  • This is a rarity indeed, an original detached family home which is set back on a mature plot of about 0.71 acres and is arranged over two floors to provide flexible accommodation amounting to around 2,692 square feet including the attached garage.

    The significant ground floor footprint provides an excellent opportunity to reconfigure, refurbish or to extend, subject to the usual planning constraints. The existing layout and accommodation is shown in the attached floor plan.

    Currently the ground floor accommodation is flexible and starts with a large vaulted entrance hall. There are two reception rooms with picture windows which face South West over the front of the garden along with a separate office, good sized kitchen/breakfast room and guest cloakroom. There is also a large double bedroom on this level with an en suite bathroom although this room could also be a further living room if required.

    On the first floor, the principal bedroom has a southerly aspect, with fitted wardrobe space and an en suite bathroom. There are three further bedrooms on this level along with the family bathroom.

    Outside there are gardens to front, side and rear as the house is set back within the gardens which also ensures privacy from the road. The front of the house faces South West and there are lovely views across the area. The double garage is attached at the rear of the house and is approached along a private driveway. The gardens overall are an L shape amounting to 0.71 acres in total and providing fabulous potential for adding ancillary accommodation such as a gym, home office or even a pool, subject to the usual consents. There is a terrace at the front of the property and these gardens are mostly lawn with mature tree and hedge screening.

    A discreet and hidden footpath runs down one side of the garden providing pedestrian access only to the occupants of the rear ground floor apartment of the house at the top of the rear garden. The client says the footpath has been used extremely infrequently.

I think this is such a fabulous opportunity, an original home in large gardens offers wonderful potential for the next family to enjoy.
