This detached chalet-style home, conceived by a Norwegian architect and constructed in 1988, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Set on a generous 0.23-acre plot in a tranquil rural landscape, the property features around 1,980 sq. ft of flexible living space that allows for creative reconfiguration. The highlight is the expansive 35’ workshop equipped with separate power and drainage—a noteworthy asset that opens possibilities for conversion into an annexe or additional living quarters (subject to planning). Within walking distance of Reedham village and its train station, this property balances peaceful country living with convenient accessibility.
Stepping inside, the open-plan entrance hall leads to a sitting room featuring a wood burner, perfect for cozy evenings. The kitchen/dining area boasts dual aspect windows fostering natural light, making it ideal for family gatherings. The home accommodates three double bedrooms across two levels along with a family bathroom and a shower room—all offering ample space for guests or family members. A study/utility area further enhances the property's adaptability.
The exterior space is equally compelling with south-facing gardens wrapping around the home. Landscaped thoughtfully to include mature planting and fruit trees, the gardens provide privacy and opportunity for outdoor activities or personal cultivation projects.
For buyers looking to invest, this property’s potential extends beyond immediate occupancy; its historic planning permission to convert the workshop into livable space adds considerable value for future enhancements. With practical features like generous storage and work-from-home options fully integrated into its design, this property stands out as an aspirational yet realistic renovation project.
