Occupying a highly regarded position, this well-proportioned detached family home sits within an exceptional third-of-an-acre plot (stms), enjoying attractive rural views, a high degree of privacy and excellent potential for future enhancement.

Approached via a generous gravel driveway, the property offers extensive off-road parking and leads to two separate garages, with the front lawn providing further scope to create additional parking if desired. From the outset, the setting is one of space, seclusion and versatility, a combination rarely found in such a prime non-estate location.

Internally, the accommodation has been thoughtfully adapted over the years and now presents an exciting opportunity for a new owner to re-imagine and rejuvenate. The welcoming hallway provides a useful storage cupboard and access to a cloakroom, before opening into the extended sitting room, a wonderfully light space featuring sliding doors opening directly onto the garden and glazed double doors leading through to the formal dining room. These two rooms connect beautifully, creating an ideal flow for both everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen is well-equipped and sits adjacent to the dining room, offering clear potential to be combined into a contemporary open-plan arrangement. Alternatively, given the size of the plot, there is scope to relocate and extend the kitchen to the rear, subject to the necessary consents, fully maximising the garden outlook.

Also positioned off the dining room is a versatile fourth bedroom or study, ideal for home working or ground-floor living. From the kitchen, a side lobby provides internal access to one of the garages and leads through to a separate utility room, while an externally accessed workshop offers further flexibility. with potential to be incorporated into the main accommodation if desired.

To the first floor, the landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant outlooks. The family bathroom has been upgraded, complemented by an additional shower room, providing practical facilities for family life.

The true focal point of the property is the enclosed rear garden. Enjoying a high degree of privacy, excellent sun exposure and a generous, established layout, it is perfectly suited to families, keen gardeners and those seeking a home with genuine outdoor lifestyle appeal. The size of the plot also offers significant future potential for extension, subject to planning.

Homes in this location rarely come to market, and the combination of a prime non-estate setting, exceptional plot size, and no onward chain ensures this is a particularly compelling opportunity.
