Description

We are proud to offer this impressive 4/5-bedroom detached family home offering spacious and well balanced accommodation, with excellent potential to extend further. What makes this property stand out is the granted planning permission to extend across the rear, convert the garage into an annex, and build an open barn-style garage with a 'living roof' in the grounds. The current owners have already enhanced the property with newly fitted dormer windows to three of the double bedrooms and new double glazing.  Access to the property is via electric gates. The ground floor features an entrance porch, entrance hall, a triple aspect sitting room, three additional reception rooms (one of which could easily be used as a fifth bedroom), a large kitchen with a separate utility room, and a cloakroom.  To the first floor, the master bedroom boasts windows that provide panoramic countryside views and includes an en-suite bathroom. Three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. All of this is set within a generous 0.42-acre plot.
