3 Ref: LCAA7134 DESCRIPTION

An impeccably presented 4 bedroomed detached house with versatile accommodation providing three/four bedrooms, two/three reception rooms with the ground floor double bedroom having an en-suite shower room off it. The property is set on a large level plateau of mainly lawned gardens with a large parking and turning area and a strip of woodland to the north. The slightly elevated position provides lovely, westerly views out across the river below, the village of and countryside beyond. To one side of the property, set back in one corner with its own area of garden around it, stands a fairly large detached, two storey stone barn which may well offer excellent potential for conversion to an annexe/dwelling, subject to any necessary planning consents.

Currently the barn provides a large and very useful storage space and is divided into three sections, one of which is a tractor/vehicular shed at the back and then two large storage areas ideal for workshop, hobby space etc, one of these is two storey with a built-in staircase up to the first floor, however this staircase and sections of the first floor will need remedial work/replacement and we would therefore not advise use of these stairs at the moment.

On the opposite side of the property from the barn is a large stone paved patio area with purpose built swimming pool and a shed to one side housing the filtration and pumping equipment. Beyond that on the northern side is a long strip of woodland also under the ownership of Hammermill Bungalow. A footpath leads down the approach road to the bungalow and skirts round the property, exiting through the aforementioned strip of woodland, making an extremely useful access for dog walking etc. The property has been well maintained and is impeccably presented with modern kitchen and bathrooms.
