4 bed detached house for sale

Sixpenny Handley SP5

A rare opportunity to acquire a generous, four bedroom family home within the centre of this popular village, boasting tremendous potential and offers scope for extension (STPP).

Room Description

Church Farm Cottage sits within the heart of the village and offers very traditional accommodation which has already been extended, but there is tremendous scope for this to be explored further (STPP) and the home requires modernising throughout. The accommodation currently comprises of two formal reception rooms, kitchen and shower room to the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and family bathroom to the first floor and two further double bedrooms to the second floor. Furthermore, there is an attached barn style structure to the southerly elevation, which could be easily developed and incorporated into the existing home, and the cottage benefits from an original cellar which is ideal for cold and dry storage. There has been the addition of a conservatory to the principle reception room which also features a charming inglenook style fire place and the home benefits from oil fired heating.
