Titan House immediately stands out with its impressive proportions, generous living spaces and the sheer amount of room it offers. Set within a spacious 1,400 sq.m. garden, this substantial two-storey home is a property with real presence and, perhaps most importantly, tremendous potential. With four bedrooms, an internal staircase, two entrances, a large basement, covered parking and additional outbuildings, there is plenty of space here to create a home that truly works around your lifestyle.
Step inside through the main entrance and you are welcomed by a central hallway, with the internal staircase directly ahead. Convenient built-in storage has been cleverly incorporated underneath the staircase, making excellent use of the available space.
To the left of the entrance hallway is one of the four bedrooms. This bedroom benefits from its own adjoining room, currently suitable for creating a private shower room or bathroom, offering an excellent opportunity to give this part of the house its own en-suite facilities.

To the right of the hallway is the spacious living room, a generous area designed for comfortable family living and relaxation. From here, you enter the separate dining room, which also has its own outside entrance. This second access is particularly practical, providing an easy connection between the house, the garden and the dining and kitchen areas.
From the dining room, you continue into the kitchen, creating a natural flow between cooking, dining and everyday family life. Immediately next to the kitchen is a large and remarkably spacious basement. Far more than simply a traditional cellar, this substantial room offers enormous potential and could be transformed into additional storage, a workshop, hobby room, utility space, home gym, office or even another bedroom, depending entirely on the needs and imagination of its new owners.
The internal staircase leads to the second floor, which can easily become the peaceful relaxation zone of the house. A corridor provides access to three further bedrooms, giving the property a total of four bedrooms. Two of these bedrooms are positioned to the left of the staircase and offer generous proportions, while to the right of the corridor is another spacious bedroom with an adjoining closet room.

The closet room provides yet another opportunity to personalise the property. It could remain as a useful dressing or storage area, or be converted into an en-suite bathroom with a shower and toilet, creating a private bathroom for the bedroom. Alternatively, it could be adapted for any other purpose that suits the new owners.
The second floor also benefits from a wonderful balcony with a lovely outlook. This is the kind of space that can easily become a favourite spot in the house - somewhere to enjoy a morning coffee, unwind in the afternoon or simply sit back and take in the views and peaceful surroundings.
Outside, Titan House continues to impress. The 1,400 sq.m. garden is large, level and wonderfully easy to maintain, providing a generous open space with countless possibilities. There is plenty of room for creating an outdoor seating area, a family garden, a play area, a vegetable garden, fruit trees or simply enjoying the freedom and privacy that such a substantial plot provides.

The property also benefits from a covered parking space accessed through a double parking gate, providing convenient and sheltered parking within the grounds. The large gate also makes access particularly practical for larger vehicles, equipment or machinery.
Additional outbuildings provide even more useful space and flexibility. Together with the basement and the extra rooms throughout the house, they give Titan House an abundance of possibilities for storage, workshops, hobbies, creative projects or additional living space.
One of the greatest strengths of Titan House is its flexibility. With its generous rooms, internal staircase, four existing bedrooms, large basement, additional spaces and substantial garden, the property can be adapted in numerous ways. Whether you are looking for a large family home, a comfortable countryside retreat, a property with space for hobbies and projects, or simply a house where you can create your own vision, Titan House offers the space and potential to make it happen.
There is water and electricity connected to the property.
