Description
This five-bedroom village house offers approximately 2,132 sq ft of accommodation arranged over three floors, with two reception rooms, an open-plan kitchen and dining area, a pantry, a ground-floor cloakroom and a conservatory. The first floor has three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate shower room, while two further bedrooms occupy the converted roof space. The property has had improvements to the roof, wiring and heating system, but the interiors would benefit from updating, giving a purchaser scope to adapt the rooms and finishes to their needs.

Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £550,000, this five-bedroom village house is priced at £258/sqf, around 20% below the local average—a strong opportunity to acquire generous space at a favourable price. The roof, heating and wiring have reportedly benefited from improvements, while the visible interiors are usable but dated, giving scope for a light, tailored refresh rather than a major overhaul.
The established garden, ample parking and well-proportioned reception spaces add to the appeal. The listing also mentions potential for a substantial two-storey rear extension, subject to consent; feasibility is not established, so the existing house and garden are the clearer attractions.
Key opportunities
- Refresh dated decoration and serviceable flooring to give the generous reception spaces and bedrooms a more contemporary feel.
- Make the most of the substantial, established garden, patio and ample parking.
- Explore the stated potential for a two-storey rear extension, subject to consents and a separate feasibility assessment.
