Spacious 5-Bedroom Detached Family Home with No Chain and Planning Permission Granted

This impressive five-bedroom detached home offers spacious and flexible accommodation, benefitting from no onward chain. Having been tastefully improved by the current owners, the property still presents excellent potential for further enhancement or extension, with planning permission granted in 2020 for an extension and loft conversion.

Set on a generous plot with a large block-paved gated driveway, ample off-road parking, and access to an integral garage, the home also boasts a private south-west facing rear garden — a true blank canvas ready to be transformed into a desirable space for family living and outdoor entertaining.

Completing the ground floor is a separate utility room with space for two appliances, a ground floor WC, useful storage cupboards, and a pedestrian door into the integral garage, which houses the wall-mounted boiler.
