Description

Coming to the market with no onward chain and superbly situated on a 1.3 acre corner plot within the exclusive Wildernesse Estate, Little Hermitage offers a unique development opportunity (STPP) for an incoming purchaser.

Built in the 1930s with later additions, the current living space exceeds 2,500 sq ft and is arranged across two floors.

Little Hermitage is situated in an enviable position within a Conservation Area and the hamlet of Godden Green, with it's award winning pub The Bucks Head just 1 mile away with footpaths leading into Knole Park.

The current accommodation comprises three principal reception rooms; a double aspect sitting room, adjoining dining room with an open fireplace and doors to the garden and a snug. There is also a kitchen, utility room, study, shower room and two cloakrooms.

To the first floor there are three bedrooms, one with an en suite bathroom and another with a wash basin. A bathroom completes the accommodation.

The gardens have a southerly aspect to the rear, with established planting including a wide variety of mature deciduous and evergreen trees, creating a high degree of privacy and seclusion.

The site of a large pond sits within the plot towards the rear boundary, and in total the area amounts to about 1.3 acres. Little Hermitage is set back from the road and approached via a driveway culminating in a parking area for multiple vehicles. A detached garage sits to one side of the driveway.
