Description

This substantial detached family home occupies an exceptional plot of nearly 5 acres, nestled in the heart of beautiful countryside. Owned by the same family for almost 60 years, the property offers spacious and versatile accommodation, including a self-contained two bedroom ground floor annexe, ideal for multi-generational living or guest use. While the home has been carefully maintained over the years, its generous proportions and expansive grounds present an exciting opportunity for remodelling or further development (subject to the necessary consents). The meticulously maintained gardens feature a variety of specimen trees and additional highlights include a large detached double garage and a paddock, making the property ideal for those seeking space, seclusion, and countryside living.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 1.

Surface water

Medium to low risk (1 in 100 to 1 in 1000)
