Description

Mannleys Sales & Lettings is delighted to present this exceptional seven-bedroom Victorian detached home, available for sale by unconditional online auction. The property is a substantial and highly versatile 7-bedroom Victorian detached home, set in around one acre with stunning countryside views and excellent potential for further development.

Originally built in 1899, this impressive former hotel blends character features with modern living, including a striking open-plan kitchen/dining/family room added in 2018.

The Property

A grand entrance hall sets the tone, leading to a range of spacious and flexible living areas including a lounge, dining room, sitting room, playroom and utility.

The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen/diner/family room, designed for modern living with high-quality fittings, a central island and direct access to the gardens.

Upstairs offers 7 well-proportioned bedrooms, along with attic rooms and extensive cellar space, giving excellent flexibility for growing families or multi-generational living.

The property sits within generous grounds of approximately 1 acre, featuring lawned gardens, a natural pond and uninterrupted views over surrounding farmland. To the right hand-side of the property there is a gravel forecourt which could provide additional parking if required. To the left hand-side of the property there is a generous size driveway with turning area providing ample parking for a number of vehicles. Additionally, large detached outbuilding with adjoining stores offers exciting scope for conversion into an annexe or holiday let (subject to planning).
