Description

This detached property is situated in a tranquil lane within a desirable village, offering substantial potential for renovation and investment. Set on an impressive plot of approximately one acre, the house spans around 3,250 sqft and presents ample opportunities for modernisation to create a bespoke family home. Featuring a self-contained annexe and a double garage, this residence can be transformed to meet your needs or serve as an attractive rental option. On the ground floor, you'll find a galleried reception hall leading to various living spaces, including a light-filled sitting room with views of the garden through the conservatory. The kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with essential amenities but could benefit from an update to enhance functionality and aesthetics. Additionally, the utility room provides direct access to the annexe, which features its own kitchen/reception area and two rooms that could be adapted as bedrooms or office space. The first floor contains four bedrooms, all with natural light and garden views. The en suite bathroom is in need of modern updates, while the main bathroom has good potential for improvements. Outside, the garden offers expansive outdoor space with mature landscaping. Notably, there are identified structural issues that need addressing in both the conservatory and annexe; further investigation will be necessary for prospective buyers focusing on renovation. This property is chain-free and represents a rare opportunity for those looking to invest in an extensive refurbishment project.
