Description
Delightful 5 bedroom detached house in about 1.5 acres, surrounded on all sides by glorious rural farmland. Ripe for modernisation, and perfect for redevelopment, the ‘solidly built’ property has spacious rooms - 3 receptions, 5 bedrooms, central heating, double glazing and a conservatory. The property sits in the middle of its own land which comprises half domestic gardens, and half lawned paddock which is well tended with mature trees. This paddock has been used for years as a successful holiday caravan retreat, for which it still has power and water points running throughout. A plethora of dilapidated outbuildings adjoin the main house which include a 1.5 garage, workshop/barn and various other lean-to sheds and store rooms. There are three separate driveway accesses to the property off Chaingate Lane, representing plenty of future options subject to planning. Even in the semi-rural surroundings, local amenities are close at hand. All within a short 3 minute drive, there are three local pub/restaurants, Tesco Express at Brimsham Park and two primary schools. Such an interesting character property with land is rarely available, being every inch a blank canvas with which to create a beautiful home to your own specification.
