Offering generous proportions, versatile accommodation and considerable potential, this substantial five-bedroom detached home presents an exciting opportunity for its next owners. With two reception rooms, bedrooms across both floors and an extensive south-west facing garden, the property provides an excellent foundation for modernisation and personalisation.
The front door opens into an ENTRANCE HALL, providing access to the principal ground-floor rooms, with a staircase rising to the first floor.
The generous SITTING ROOM provides a welcoming space for relaxation, with a large window drawing in natural light and an impressive stone fireplace forming a distinctive focal point. There is ample room for comfortable seating, making this a lovely space for gathering with family or entertaining friends.
The adjoining DINING ROOM offers a separate setting for family meals and more formal occasions, with space for a substantial dining table. Its proximity to the KITCHEN makes it particularly practical for everyday living and entertaining.
The KITCHEN is fitted with wall and base units, providing storage and worktop space, alongside room for essential appliances. While the fittings would benefit from updating, the room offers an opportunity to create a kitchen tailored to individual tastes. An adjoining UTILITY provides further space for laundry and household storage.
A particularly appealing feature of the ground floor is the inclusion of TWO BEDROOMS, offering flexibility for visiting family, home working or those seeking accommodation without using the stairs. These are served by a ground-floor BATHROOM, adding to the practicality of the layout.
Upstairs, the LANDING leads to THREE FURTHER BEDROOMS, each offering comfortable accommodation. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM is particularly generous, while the additional bedrooms could accommodate family members or guests. Elevated windows provide pleasant outlooks, with glimpses of the surrounding hills and countryside adding to the appeal.
A separate STUDY provides a dedicated space for working from home, hobbies or quiet reading, while useful eaves storage offers additional practicality. A further BATHROOM completes the first-floor accommodation.
With its generous proportions, flexible accommodation and established setting, this home offers plenty of possibilities. Whether accommodating a growing family, creating spaces for work and relaxation or making the most of the extensive gardens, there is considerable scope to create something truly individual.
Outside
To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking and access to the GARAGE, while a lawned garden with established planting creates an attractive approach.
To the rear, the substantial south-west facing garden offers a wonderful sense of space and privacy. A paved terrace adjoining the house provides an inviting setting for outdoor dining or enjoying the afternoon and evening sunshine. Beyond, an area of lawn is framed by mature shrubs, trees and established borders, creating a sheltered garden setting.
The garden continues beyond this maintained area into a substantial further section that has been allowed to develop naturally over time. Offering considerable potential for restoration and landscaping, this secluded space could become an extended lawn, additional seating area or wildlife-friendly retreat, depending on individual preferences.
With its impressive depth, mature greenery and peaceful atmosphere, the garden provides an appealing outdoor setting with plenty of possibilities for future owners.
