Description

Occupying a generous plot of almost half an acre, this large, detached house offers in excess of 3,000 sq. ft. of accommodation and an excellent opportunity to refurbish, for sale by Public Auction on Wednesday 25th February 2026.

Set within a very well-regarded village that is located approximately two miles north of Stony Stratford, this substantial detached mid-twentieth century house is well set back from the road with a sizeable parking area in the foreground and to the rear is a large garden with open countryside beyond. Internally the house is in a good decorative order, although many of the fixtures and fittings are somewhat dated, consequently the house offers an excellent opportunity to refurbish and create a splendid contemporary family home. There are generous size and well-proportioned rooms, with the original integral garage that has been part converted into a self-contained annex that can either be completed, or re-instated as garaging.

To the side is a plot with recently lapsed planning consent (January 2026), to allow for two four-bedroom detached houses. Their consent was part of a larger application that included the demolition of this house and for three new houses to be built in its’ place.
