Description

Set in spacious grounds on the fringe of the attractive village of Hundon, The Old Forge presents a substantial five-bedroom detached family home with considerable renovation potential. The property’s entrance leads into a bright reception hall, featuring a striking staircase that enhances its character. A notable feature is the triple-aspect sitting/family room, which is bathed in natural light and highlights an inglenook fireplace equipped with a wood-burning stove, providing both charm and warmth. This room opens directly to the rear gardens, fostering an inviting connection with the outdoor environment. On the other side of the ground floor lies a recently updated kitchen/breakfast room that flows into a garden room, creating an ideal setting for relaxed family living. The kitchen boasts a central island and breakfast bar that delineates it from the dining area, all while offering pleasing views over the gardens. Additionally, there’s a separate utility room nearby for added convenience. This level also includes a home office and games room—both spaces primed for entertaining or possibly converting into further living accommodation. The first floor features a dual-aspect principal bedroom with en-suite facilities and beautiful views across the countryside, along with three additional well-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom that also capitalizes on rural outlooks. Externally, The Old Forge is approached by gated access to a sprawling gravel driveway with ample parking available. The beautifully landscaped gardens provide privacy and are mainly laid to lawn, bordered by mature trees and hedging. A west-facing paved terrace alongside a heated swimming pool creates an excellent area for outdoor gatherings. Notably, the original forge outbuilding offers valuable storage space but also presents an opportunity for future conversion plans (subject to planning permissions). With approximately 0.4 acres of land at your disposal, this property not only boasts charm but also significant investment potential in enhancing its existing features or repurposing areas to meet contemporary living needs.
