There is a useful utility room with access to the garden and stairs leading to a large storage area above the garaging. Accessed via the garage or from the garden is a garden room with large windows and sliding doors.

    The house is tucked away from the main road and set in just under an acre of gardens, mainly laid to lawn dotted with a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs, which provide year round interest and a high degree of privacy.

    There is the possibility for the land to be further developed for multiple dwellings, subject to the necessary consents. Plans are available on request.

This is a rare opportunity to purchase a highly individual seventies building with huge potential, tucked away in a surprisingly large plot. I love the discreet positioning and the original architecture
