This distinctive five-bedroom detached family residence, once the local bakery, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the historically rich village of Bocking. Set on approximately a quarter-acre plot, the property is in good condition but has room for modern updates and customization to enhance its appeal. A feature of this home is the detached workshop, which holds potential for conversion into a self-contained annex (subject to planning permission), making it ideal for multi-generational living or rental income. The expansive outdoor space includes a southwest-facing garden with a patio, a decked seating area, and historical elements like a working well that supports irrigation.
Inside, the layout features characterful details including original oak beams and an inviting open plan living/dining/kitchen area that serves as a communal hub. Current amenities include two bathrooms and five flexible bedrooms, with one conveniently located on the ground floor. While the house has been well-maintained by its present owners, new owners may wish to carry out cosmetic updates or reconfigure certain spaces to better suit modern lifestyles.
The property boasts excellent access to local amenities such as shops and schools, as well as strong transport links to larger towns and London via nearby train stations. This combination of charm, space, and location offers significant potential for capital growth through thoughtful renovations.
