Property Description

Occupying a generous site of approximately 0.42 acres, this charming detached two
storey residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire and restore a substantial period
property dating back approximately 150 years. Extending to approximately 2,060 sq.ft.,
the property retains much of its original character and offers immense potential for
renovation and modernisation, allowing a purchaser to create a distinctive family home
in a mature rural setting.
The residence is of pebbledash construction and, while requiring significant
refurbishment throughout, provides well-proportioned accommodation over two floors.
A tiled entrance hallway welcomes visitors and features a traditional timber staircase
leading to the first floor. The kitchen/dining room is fitted with a tiled floor, a solid fuel
Stanley range and a partly fitted kitchen, with doors opening to the rear of the property.
Adjacent is a spacious sitting room with tiled flooring and an open fireplace, while a
back kitchen with concrete floor and rear access door offers useful additional space. To
the rear of the dwelling is a further room which is currently in poor condition, with the
roof requiring extensive repair or replacement.
The first floor accommodation is accessed via a bright landing with high ceilings and
carpet flooring, reflecting the generous proportions associated with homes of this era.
The accommodation comprises three bedrooms, all carpeted, with two overlooking the
rear garden and one enjoying both front and side-facing windows. A family bathroom
features a tiled floor and bath, while a separate ensuite incorporates a shower and lino
flooring. A hotpress completes the first-floor layout.
Services include mains water, a septic tank wastewater system, and heating provided
by a solid fuel range. Prospective purchasers should note that mains electricity is
currently disconnected. The property requires comprehensive renovation and upgrading
but offers an exceptional opportunity to restore a character-filled period home while
retaining its many original features and generous accommodation.
With its substantial floor area, attractive site of approximately 0.42 acres, and
considerable redevelopment potential, this property is ideally suited to those seeking a
restoration project with the opportunity to create a unique countryside residence of
significant charm and character.
