This four-bedroom former farmhouse presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment on a generous plot of approximately 1.25 acres. With over 2,700 square feet of versatile living space, the property is ready for modernization while retaining its character features, making it an appealing canvas for prospective buyers.
The home features three well-proportioned reception rooms that provide ample space for relaxation and entertaining. The ground floor includes a fitted kitchen alongside a utility room and a separate cloakroom. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms along with a sizable bathroom. Additionally, there’s potential for ancillary living arrangements with a self-contained studio or annexe equipped with its own shower room and independent access to the driveway, ideal for guests or rental opportunities.
Character details throughout the property include exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces, terracotta tiled floors, and traditional casement windows that highlight its period charm. While the house is well-presented overall, it offers significant scope for personal touches that can enhance both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Outside, the property is accessed via a tranquil gravel driveway that leads into a courtyard area with parking space sufficient for multiple vehicles or utility transport. There are also several cart-lodge garages and hardstanding areas available. Notably, a timber-framed barn on the site presents exciting possibilities for conversion into additional living space or functional outbuildings (subject to planning approval).
The grounds are predominantly laid to lawn and include established hedging and a variety of mature trees that create privacy while providing delightful outdoor space perfect for gatherings or gardening projects. It is worth noting that a public footpath traverses part of the garden area.
