The Property
Enjoying an elevated position off a leafy country lane, this detached four-bedroom family home offers lovely valley views. Improvements by the current owners include a new bathroom, an open-plan kitchen/dining room with underfloor heating and solar panels, providing additional electricity and a small income. Dating from the 1970s, the property occupies a nonestate position, forming one of just four similar homes. The rear enjoys a south-westerly aspect, with the front facing north-east. The entrance hall has tiled flooring, stairs to the first floor and a downstairs cloakroom, with doors leading to the principal reception rooms. The sitting room is a particularly light and welcoming space, with glazed doors and adjoining side panels opening onto a balcony and taking advantage of the valley views. A stone fireplace houses an open fire, creating an attractive focal point. The balcony, external staircase and garden store beneath require attention. The impressive triple-aspect kitchen/dining room provides an excellent space for everyday family life and entertaining, with underfloor heating and tiled flooring. The kitchen features wooden worktops and an extensive range of integrated Bosch appliances, whilst the dining area to the front enjoys a delightful bay window. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom with a bath and separate double shower. Two bedrooms overlook neighbouring fields to the front, whilst the other two enjoy views over the rear garden and across the valley beyond. One bedroom has extensive fitted wardrobes and is currently used as a home office. Property Information: Heating: Oil-fired central heating, open fire and underfloor heating to the kitchen/dining room. Solar panels: Provide additional electricity and generate a small income. Broadband: Ofcom indicates superfast broadband is available. Mobile coverage: Good outdoors; variable indoors. Please check with your provider. Covenants and rights: Please ask the agent
Outside
The private lane is owned and maintained by the residents and leads to the property, where a further driveway provides parking in front of the double garage. The garage has an electric door and houses the boiler, washing machine plumbing and solar batteries. Pedestrian access is available on both sides of the house. To the left of the garage, a grassed pathway leads past the oil tank to the rear garden. Here, terraced lawns provide space for children to play, including an enclosed section (some fence panels require replacement). Beyond this is a further area extending towards the neighbouring tree line. Beneath the balcony is a garden store which requires work but offers useful storage potential. The external staircase also needs replacing and is currently unsafe to use. The garden offers good potential for improvement, particularly for those who enjoy nature, wildlife and birdlife. Although some areas need attention, there is plenty of opportunity to make the most of the space.
