Originally thought to have been built in the 1920’s, this semi-detached property, which has been a much loved home by the same family for over 40 years, now offers much in the way of potential. There is scope here to either update the house as it stands or extend the current property’s footprint, subject of course to any necessary permissions. At present, the layout includes an enclosed porch, large sitting / family room with wood burner, separate dining room, spacious kitchen / breakfast room, utility area, cloakroom, lean-to conservatory, three bedrooms, generous bathroom and two garages cum workshops.
The property is situated in a rural, yet not isolated position, surrounded by beautiful countryside. It is approached over an existing driveway where there is parking and turning for a good number of vehicles to the front of the house and garaging, and to the rear is a good size garden, bordered on one side by a neighbour’s paddock where horses gently graze. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate what this property and its location have to offer. NO ONWARD CHAIN.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 26, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
