Description

GUIDE PRICE £800,000 - £1,000,000

Sat in just under 2 acres of grounds, this lovely four bedroom detached house is perfect for those that are looking for a prime village location and want a character cottage.

On the plot sits a pole barn,which would be perfect for development and/or equestrian use.

Currently the house sits in mature gardens and is secluded by tree lines. There is then a L-shaped plot that would be perfect for paddocks or a multitude of different uses.

The property also benefits from a large detached double garage.

It is thought that subject to the necessary planning permissions being obtained, there is future development potential over the whole, or part of the land. Buyers are to carry out their own due diligence and seek the appropriate advice. The sellers are intending to implement an overage clause on the plot.

Please contact our team for further information and discuss potential structures for purchase.
