An individual detached family house with scope to alter and extend, subject to Planning Permission. Situated in a quiet spot down a country lane at the foot of the Ashford Hangers towards the fringes of Steep, the property sits in gardens and grounds of approximately 2.39 acres. The floorplan denotes the layout of the property and, as you can see, the rooms are well proportioned. Believed to be built in the 1960's, the house has large windows and an abundance of light. Outside, the house is approached by a long drive leading to a parking area and the integral garage. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with established hedging and borders, an enclosed vegetable garden with greenhouse, and separate wooden garden machinery store. Immediately adjoining the west side of the house is a recently landscaped terrace and being west facing is an ideal spot for outside entertaining during the long summer afternoons. In the far corner of the garden, the current owners have extended an old detached pump room into a fantastic home-office or studio with parking area, large storage shed and separate drive and entrance. There is a former walled kitchen garden and again, subject to the usual Planning Permissions, there may be the possibility of further development. All in all, the house is situated in an idyllic rural, yet accessible position and an internal viewing is strongly recommended.
