This three bedroom home has historically had planning approved to add a first floor extension over an existing ground floor extension thus creating a spacious four bedroom family home with en-suite facilities.
This detached residence has been our client’s cherished home for nearly 50 years. One of its standout features is the magnificent 300-foot rear garden, lovingly maintained over the decades. The garden gently slopes down to the shallow waters of Robinsbrook and backs onto a tranquil willow plantation, creating a peaceful, semi-rural retreat.
When the current owners extended the property, they obtained planning permission for a first floor and, with foresight, installed suitable footings for a full two-storey dwelling. (Please note: Any development potential should be verified by a qualified structural engineer.) This offers exciting potential for the next owners to create a four-bedroom home with en-suite facilities, subject to the usual consents.
At present, the accommodation includes an entrance porch with a ground floor cloakroom, a spacious sitting room with doors opening onto a raised veranda which is partly covered, and a fitted kitchen leading through to a utility area and a bright morning room. There is also a ground floor shower room and a bedroom, ideal for guests or single-level living.
Upstairs, the first floor offers two comfortable double bedrooms.
To the front, there is ample off-road parking along with a useful side storage area. The rear garden is a true highlight: An extensive patio leads to an ornamental pond, followed by a large lawned area that extends to the wooded boundary by Robinsbrook — a haven for wildlife and a wonderful space for families and keen gardeners alike.
