Description

This architecturally distinctive ranch-style residence, constructed in the 1950s, presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property that has remained within the same ownership for over seven decades. Nestled on a spacious corner plot at the end of a sought-after private road in the charming village of Platt, this home boasts a unique interplay of mid-century design and modern possibilities. The layout includes predominantly single-story living, with an additional lower level that accommodates a study and utility area that maximizes the sloped site. The generous room dimensions offer ample scope for creative reconfiguration, ensuring fluidity between living spaces. As you enter through the welcoming hallway, you encounter a main living area defined by an original stone chimney breast housing an open fire. A few steps lead down to an expansive dining space adorned with sliding doors that frame picturesque views of the rear garden. Adjacent to this is the kitchen, equipped with various wall and base units, providing direct access to outdoor areas. The versatile accommodation features three bedrooms and a bathroom conveniently located on one wing, while the master suite enjoys its own dressing area and ensuite shower room on the opposite side—complete with a Juliet balcony overlooking private gardens. Natural light pours into every room through large picture windows, enhancing their inviting ambiance. A spiral staircase leads down to an adaptable office space surrounded by high windows, alongside a utility room fitted for laundry needs. While some modernization would elevate this property further and accentuate its timeless mid-century traits, there remains substantial potential for extension (subject to planning permission). The exterior grounds are indeed noteworthy; the driveway allows effortless access to both the residence and double garage while offering serenity within beautifully landscaped gardens featuring mature trees and shrubs. The private setting is perfect for families or those seeking tranquility. Moreover, there may be opportunities for developing additional dwellings on this generous plot—an avenue worth exploring further by prospective buyers (subject to necessary permits). This property is marketed without any upward chain.
