A generous four bedroom family home, with potential, benefitting from a self-contained two bedroom annexe and a large and established garden in this semi-rural, yet convenient setting
On the market for the first time in over 18 years, this four bedroom detached property with a separate two bedroom annexe offers considerable potential and longevity for a family to put their stamp on the house moving forward. The main house offers over 2000 sq ft of living space, whilst the separate annexe offers over 1000 sq ft.
Within the main house, the free-flowing accommodation can be arranged to suit, with a ground floor layout that currently offers a semi-open plan kitchen/dining room, sitting room open to the conservatory and a separate study.
Fitted with high gloss cabinets and granite worksurfaces, the kitchen is open plan to the dining room and enjoys an attractive dual aspect log burning fireplace and a range of appliances including a Rangemaster, freezer and dishwasher. The adjoining utility room offers space for both a washing machine and a dryer, with a further door opening to the gardens. A ground floor wc completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, there are four light, spacious bedrooms, three of which are sizeable doubles, with all bedrooms benefitting from an en suite shower/bathroom and fitted storage. Of note the first floor also opens onto a decked terrace and external staircase to the gardens below, with pleasant and far-reaching views across the countyside.
Enjoying vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, the self-contained annexe comprises an open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, two double bedrooms and an accessible shower/wet room. There is a useful mezzanine, which provides space for storage.
Outside, the mature, wrap around gardens are mainly laid to lawn, with a paved south facing terrace providing an ideal area for outdoor entertaining, together with a decking area to the rear of the property, and a range of specimen trees including a Eucryphia, Tamarisk and a Yucca. There is a further stoned and paved garden which the annexe can also access directly, allowing any family to landscape/"divide" as required.
The paved garden also leads to the insulated 13'8 x 8'6 workshop, fitted with both electricity and water, formerly used for beekeeping and honey production.
There is a gravel driveway to the front of the property, providing parking for many vehicles.
Full Fibre and 5G is available at the property.

With multi-generational living, blended and extended families, 'bounce-back-children' and the pressing need for comfortable working from home spaces now influencing our buyer's wants for their long-term family homes, it struck me that Far Far Away is a very interesting and exciting proposition that can easily accommodate all such needs! Sprinkle on top a location that is convenient for a number of local towns, the coast, countryside and the city, this is a very good sum of parts with flexibility and longevity in mind.
