Description

This Grade II listed property presents a significant opportunity for renovation and investment, suited for those looking to create a unique family home rich in character. With four bedrooms, this residence retains many period features but is in need of refurbishment to unlock its full potential. Upon entry, you are greeted by a practical porch area that serves as both a utility space and an entryway, ideal for managing everyday essentials while providing easy access to the rest of the house. The dining room features exposed granite walls and a log burner, creating an inviting environment for meals and gatherings. The room also houses an LPG boiler, ensuring convenience. Connected to the dining area, the kitchen offers rustic wooden cabinetry along with essential appliances like a built-in oven and hob, plus a new dishwasher. This setup is functional as-is but could be transformed into a modern culinary space reflecting your personal style. Adjacent to the kitchen is a wet room equipped with tiled flooring and a contemporary shower—practical for post-outdoor activities. The lounge benefits from natural light streaming through south-facing windows, enhancing its airy ambiance. An unutilized fireplace adds to the charm of this relaxing spot. Directly across from the lounge is an additional reception room that can serve multiple purposes such as a playroom or study. On the ground floor, there’s also a spacious double bedroom designed with beautiful wooden flooring, catering well to guests or family members who prefer easy access. Behind this bedroom lies another kitchen complete with its own entrance leading outside, further enhancing the home's functionality. The upper floors reveal more possibilities: two double bedrooms are situated on one side alongside a fully-fitted bathroom and storage room ripe for conversion into office space or even another bedroom. On the opposite side upstairs are two additional spacious double bedrooms and another WC—ensuring adequate living arrangements for family needs. Surrounding this property is approximately an acre of land that offers countless options for outdoor projects—a canvas ready for gardens, play areas, or entertaining spaces. Notably unique in its classification as one of only two single count houses in the country, this property carries historical significance yet awaits modernization. While its original features reflect its storied past, it requires updating to meet contemporary standards. Set back from the road in a private location, this home invites new owners eager to blend classic charm with modern amenities while capitalizing on its investment potential.
