Description

THE PROPERTY

Set within approximately 14 acres (approx) of beautiful grounds, this substantial six-bedroom home offers an exciting opportunity for those seeking a rural lifestyle. Whether you dream of keeping horses, grazing livestock, or simply enjoying the peace and space of the countryside, this property could be the perfect match.

The grounds include a detached double garage and a stable block, making it ideal for equestrian use or for those requiring additional outbuildings.

Inside, the layout provides generous and flexible living space, including an inviting 25’ (approx.) lounge with woodburner, a fitted kitchen, utility room, dining room, family bathroom, ground-floor cloakroom, and an additional versatile reception room. The master bedroom benefits from en suite facilities, and there’s excellent storage throughout, with a basement and further space into the eaves.

Although in need of some updating and remedial work, the home offers huge potential for personalisation. With no onward chain, it’s ready for its next chapter—awaiting a new owner to unlock its full promise and create their ideal country retreat.

THE OUTSIDE

To the rear of the home, a generous lawned garden creates a pleasant outdoor area for relaxing or entertaining, while also providing direct access to the approximately 14 acres included with the property. The majority of the land is arranged as two substantial paddocks, offering excellent grazing potential and plenty of space for equestrian pursuits or other livestock. A detached stable block is ready for use, making it ideal for horse owners or those looking for versatile outbuildings.

In addition, a 22’ (approx.) detached double garage provides secure parking for vehicles as well as ample storage for tools, equipment, or feed. Together, these features combine to create a highly functional and adaptable outdoor set-up that perfectly complements the rural lifestyle on offer.
