Description

This unlisted country house, a fine example of Arts and Crafts architecture, presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts and investors. Set amidst approximately 24 acres of picturesque rural land, the property boasts stunning views and expansive mature grounds, including an indoor swimming pool complex and various outbuildings that may hold potential for conversion or additional development (subject to planning permissions). Having been cherished by one family for four decades, Bassetts retains a wealth of character with leaded light windows, oak flooring, decorative cornicing, and original fireplaces. The spacious layout features multiple reception areas, a kitchen/breakfast room with traditional elements, and six bedrooms across two floors, all offering beautiful vistas. The outdoor spaces include formal gardens filled with diverse flora, ancient woodlands, and even a disused tennis court that could be revitalized or reimagined. This property is ideal for those looking to invest in a project that can preserve its historical charm while enhancing its functionality for modern living.
