4 bedroom detached house for sale

Built in 1951 by renowned local builders 'Stride Brothers' this detached, four bedroom home sits in a good size plot (0.13 acres) with established gardens on a favoured side road in Stoke Bishop.



A generously-proportioned house set on an established road within a well-regarded area. It offers proximity to excellent independent and state schools (Elmlea 625m), vibrant local shops and amenities on nearby Druid Hill and Stoke Lane, as well as easy access to the Downs, wider countryside and road networks for those needing to commute.



Having been lived in and enjoyed for over 55 years, the house is ready for a new chapter. Although adaptations have occurred since the property was built, for example the installation of double glazing, the house presents an adaptable blank canvas with the potential, subject to planning, to extend as well as re-model, thus enabling a new owner to create their own vision for this classic detached family home.



The house is comfortably set back from the road, with a deep front garden and established shrubs providing privacy. The drive provides off street parking before accessing the integral single garage which has up and over style door. The rear garden is a standout feature of the house with an open aspect allowing sun to hit different parts at different times. It rises gently upwards away from the house over a number of tiers and is circa 60 ft in length offering the potential to zone the space for different uses, such as a play area, vegetable patch, or a relaxing and entertaining area closer to the house.



A porch sits centrally and opens into a generously proportioned hall with polished timber floor and returning staircase rising to the upper floor. A cloakroom is positioned at the far end. To the left sits a 24 ft. long triple aspect sitting room with signature 'Stride' Claygate fireplace and patio doors to the rear garden. To the right is a formal dining room with the kitchen positioned beyond it overlooking the rear garden. There is potential here to create a large open plan kitchen/family living space with adjoining utility room positioned off the rear of the garage.



Upstairs, the property boasts four good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom. Bedroom 1 faces the front of the property and has sink to the corner. Bedroom 2 also faces the front and has sink and two built-in cupboards. Bedrooms 3 and 4 face the rear of the property and both have a built-in cupboard. The bathroom sits to the front of the house, with white suite and opaque window.



Please note there is an active badger sett in the garden, there is one access within sight of the lounge window and another at the back of the garden.
