Showcase Event Monday 5th October

This is a property that genuinely has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Offering generous accommodation, enormous potential and one of the most remarkable gardens you are likely to find, this is a rare opportunity to create something very special.

Approached via a private driveway, the property enjoys an excellent degree of seclusion from the road. To the front is a single garage and a beautifully private garden, predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedgerow. A central pathway leads through the garden towards the house, creating a wonderfully inviting approach and immediately giving a sense of just how special the setting is.

The house itself is full of character and potential. While the property would now benefit from a programme of updating and improvement, it offers a fantastic opportunity for the next owner to restore it to its former glory and create an outstanding family home.

The ground floor accommodation is particularly spacious, with three generously proportioned reception rooms, providing excellent flexibility for family living, entertaining, working from home or creating more informal living spaces.

Also on the ground floor is a bedroom with its own en-suite, which adds a real degree of versatility. With some thoughtful alterations, this part of the house could work particularly well for an elderly relative or someone requiring more accessible accommodation. A second access point to the rear of the property also offers scope for the addition of a ramp, subject to any necessary consents, helping to create more practical level access.

The kitchen is a good size and offers plenty of room to create a kitchen/breakfast room, while a useful pantry provides additional storage. A door from the kitchen leads into a lean-to, again offering excellent storage and further potential.

The entrance hall is notably spacious and provides access to a ground floor WC, while stairs rise to the first floor where there are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Externally, however, is where this property becomes truly exceptional.

The rear garden is quite unlike anything you would normally expect to find in a residential setting. Large, mature and wonderfully tranquil, it has been created to feel more like a private woodland or forest garden than a conventional garden. Winding through the trees and established planting, you could easily forget you are at home at all.

There are three ponds within the grounds, adding further interest and atmosphere, and the entire garden has an almost magical quality to it. It is peaceful, fascinating and completely individual. Walking through it feels more like exploring a private woodland retreat than a suburban garden.

This is not simply a house with a large garden — it is a genuinely unique home and setting, full of character, space and potential. For the right buyer, and with the investment needed to bring the property back to its best, the end result could be absolutely outstanding.

A one-off home, on a one-off plot, with a garden that really has to be experienced in person.
