2 bedroom detached house for sale

The property was generally refurbished in the late 1980's, retaining original timbers and features including the interesting timber mullion windows, but is now available with ample scope for further modernisation to include the possible development of the outbuildings subject to appropriate planning permission and listing building consents.

There is an enclosed porchway with double doors leading into the reception hall having steps leading down to cellarage together with a raised utility area having plumbing for automatic washing machine. Adjacent to this is a bathroom equipped with bath in tiled surround, WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

Beyond this, down the hallway, there is a very spacious extension providing a breakfast kitchen which has a range of base and wall units surmounted by roll edge worksurfaces with inset stainless steel sink, mixer tap and tiled splashbacks, there is an appliance space together with exposed ceiling beams, side windows overlooking the garden and uPVC double glazed French doors opening to the patio area.

From the reception hallway, double doors open into the magnificent dining room which displays superb character including wall timbers and exposed beams, together with the aforementioned timber mullioned windows and has a large inglenook recessed fireplace with big heavy beam over. There are stairs leading off from the corner.

Through a doorway, from the dining room, you enter into the similarly splendid sitting room which displays the same wonderful wall timbers and exposed beams, a chimney breast housing a fireplace and fitted furniture to the recess. Again, there are very attractive timber mullioned windows overlooking the gardens.

To the first floor, there is a landing with timber balustrade and a wonderful exposed crook beam and timbers. The master bedroom again features wall timbers and this is equipped with a modern en suite shower room having tiled shower with glazed screen, integrated WC, wash hand basin and storage.

Off the landing there is a further double bedroom two, again with fantastic corner and wall timbers, built in wardrobe and an en suite cloakroom equipped with WC and wash hand basin.

The property is set on a good sized garden plot and has a driveway off Brown Lane turning into ample parking space in front of an excellent range of brick outbuildings comprising two stables, an open carport, storage room and open double garage. These offer enormous potential to renovate further, subject to obtaining appropriate planning permissions. Note, there is also a further gated vehicular access out onto Town Hill which may be used in preference. The gardens comprise raised lawn areas with well-tended borders, lovely mature hedges, flower borders and some interesting specimen trees. The garden backs onto an open field at the rear.
