Description
The Mount is a six-bedroom detached house in Westerfield, set within mature grounds and reached from a private road. The accommodation includes several reception rooms and offers substantial scope for a buyer to complete and reconsider the layout. Renovation has begun, but the property requires extensive further work throughout.
The photographs and particulars indicate a mix of finished and unfinished areas, including a fitted kitchen and bathroom alongside rooms with exposed floors, incomplete building work and surfaces needing repair. Outside, the grounds include a large open area, established trees, a gravel approach and a detached garage. Any development possibilities mentioned by the seller would depend on obtaining the necessary permissions and should be independently checked.
The property is freehold, has mains water, drainage and electricity, and uses oil heating. It has an EPC rating of E and is in Council Tax Band G. The house is offered chain-free. The private access road is managed by Mount Place Management Company; buyers should verify the associated arrangements and costs with their conveyancer.

46out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
The Mount offers a substantial canvas: a detached six-bedroom house in mature grounds, with two presentable reception rooms, a distinctive elevated setting and a detached garage. Some areas are already finished, while others show open floor structure and stripped or damaged finishes; the dated kitchen and rough sections of the grounds also leave scope to shape the property to your own design. The visible roof appears standing, though photographs cannot confirm the condition of the roof or fabric.
Key opportunities
- Rework the extensive six-bedroom layout and multiple reception rooms to create a tailored family home, while retaining and reviving the house’s character.
- Make the mature grounds, established trees, detached garage and gravelled approach part of a considered setting, with landscaping scope across the rougher areas.
- Choose whether to modernise the dated kitchen as part of a broader design scheme; the visible bathroom and some reception rooms already appear finished.
Key risks
- Stripped areas, open floor structure and damaged finishes make this a full-scale completion programme, with a £90,000–£180,000 renovation range rather than a cosmetic refresh.
- The roof and wider building fabric cannot be confirmed from the photographs and should be checked as part of assessing the works.
