6 bed detached house for sale

Church Road, Ramsden Bellhouse CM11

Sitting in the desirable village of Ramsden Bellhouse, this outstanding 3,695 sq ft five/six-bedroom detached home enjoys ever-changing countryside views. The landscaped plot includes an approximately 225' rear garden, which benefits from a delightful combination of south and west-facing aspects.

Internally, the recently redecorated accommodation is well-planned and spread across three floors, offering excellent versatility. Notably, each room has been thoughtfully positioned to capture views of the surrounding farmland, enhancing the home's rural charm.

The ground floor reception rooms are all accessed via a generously sized central hallway, with double doors leading to a spacious l'-shaped kitchen/diner/family room that in turn overlooks the farmland to the front.

Additional ground floor features include a study fitted with custom furniture, and a rear-facing living room that adjoins a sunroom/orangery both offering direct access to the garden. Part of the garage has recently been converted into a self-contained treatment room or home office with its own external entrance and private toilet facilities.

The property provides the flexibility of six double bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a recently refitted four-piece family bathroom. Alternatively, there is potential to incorporate a second TV room on the first floor and a games room on the top floor.

The plot is notably generous, featuring a gravel driveway with electric gate access, a larger-than-average garage with utility space, and the unique addition of a brook that winds along the side boundary.
