Description

This property, steeped in history and character, represents a truly unique opportunity for both personalisation and investment on the outskirts of Stock. Nestled within approximately one acre of land, its potential is evident whether you are looking to expand, reconfigure, or redevelop (subject to necessary consents). Originally a cattle shed, this home has been transformed into a three to four-bedroom residence while preserving delightful original features. With its multi-level layout, the home includes four bedrooms, a family bathroom with separate WC, an external laundry area, and an en-suite shower room. The cottage-style open-plan lounge diner positively invites creativity with views over the garden. The ground floor accommodates the main bedroom with an en-suite for added convenience. Outside, the gated entrance leads to expansive gardens commanding attention and potential—ideal for those wishing to create personal outdoor spaces or perhaps explore business opportunities as part of your living environment. Notably, three outbuildings offer storage solutions and functional space. The property's generous proportions make it suitable for various enhancements and modifications that could substantially increase its value. With oil radiator heating in place and a splendid westerly aspect at the rear, this is not just a home; it’s a canvas ready for transformation.
