A Home With Genuine Potential
Campbell House already offers comfortable and characterful family accommodation, but what truly sets this property apart is the approved planning permissions in place, offering a purchaser genuine flexibility over how they shape their future home. Permissions have been granted for two distinct schemes: a sympathetic programme of extensions and alterations to the existing house, or alternatively a complete replacement dwelling of contemporary design. Under either scheme, the main house will extend to 2000 sq ft, offering considerably more space than the current footprint while retaining the wonderful setting that makes this plot so special.
A potential buyer could really achieve a one of a kind forever home in this unique, rural setting.
Ground Floor
The current accommodation opens through a covered porch into a welcoming reception hall, which doubles neatly as a snug and gives access to the principal ground floor rooms.
The sitting room is a lovely dual-aspect space centred around a pretty period fireplace with recently installed Chesney inset log burner, with French doors opening directly onto the raised decking beyond, drawing the eye out across the garden and paddock.
The kitchen/dining room forms a sociable hub to the home, fitted with a range of country-style shaker cabinetry beneath worktops, a Belfast sink set beneath a window onto the garden, and a freestanding range cooker with extractor over. A peninsula breakfast bar links through into the adjoining dining area, where a characterful fireplace surround, built-in bookshelving and French doors onto the decking create a wonderfully sociable space for the family, with the garden and open field views beyond drawing the eye throughout.
A separate utility room, fitted with matching cabinetry, houses the washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher and provides useful additional storage, along with a wall mounted Vaillant boiler.
The kitchen/dining room is complimented by a useful pantry.
A ground floor family bathroom completes this level.
First Floor
Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from a vaulted ceiling and dual-aspect windows framing the garden and paddock views, along with its own dressing room which in turn leads through to an en suite shower room.
Two further double bedrooms are served by a shower room, both enjoying the same wonderful outlook over open countryside that defines this home.
Gardens, Grounds & Paddock
The gardens are a particular highlight, with an extensive raised timber decking area wrapping around the rear of the house creating a superb spot for outdoor entertaining, complete with pergola dressed in established wisteria. Beyond, the lawned gardens are dotted with mature specimen trees, giving way to a post-and-rail fenced paddock with separate gated vehicular access from the road and two further gates from the gardens that rolls down towards the surrounding woodland. An electric five-bar gate marks the entrance to the sweeping gravel driveway, offering an in-and-out turning circle and a real sense of arrival.
Outbuildings
A particularly useful range of outbuildings includes a oak framed triple garage unit one which is enclosed and the other two which are open fronted. This was built in 2014 and benefits from power, lighting and a useful sail loft over, ideal for additional storage.
A further detached outbuilding formely a stable, offers real versatility, with half of the building already converted into a home office complete with internet connection, perfectly suited to modern working-from-home life.
There is a further detached outbuilding & shelter, handy for storage and grazing animals.
