Detached family home with scope to update, set in about 1.67 acres of south facing gardens.

Description

Heverswood Lodge is an attractive detached family home, with striking pitched roof gables and offered with no onward chain. The property, which comes to the market for the first time in over 40 years, is located in the sought after village of Brasted, which offers many antique shops, public houses, a village shop and Tea Room. The bright and well-proportioned accommodation offers the incoming purchaser an ideal opportunity to update and renovate as required, subject to the necessary building consents. Of particular note is the ample off road parking, detached garaging, a stable block comprising two loose boxes and a hay store and superb, south-facing rear gardens, amounting in total to about 1.67 acres.

The principal reception rooms comprise a generous, double aspect sitting room and a dining room with a [gas] fireplace and an adjoining study.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a range of wall and base units, a breakfast bar, space for appliances and a useful boot room.

There are four well-proportioned bedrooms, three with a double aspect and one with a set of doors to outside.

A well-appointed family bathroom and separate shower room complete the accommodation.

The property is approached via a private driveway, which leads to the rear of the property, culminating in a parking area and a detached single garage. To the front, there is a pedestrian gate and a paved path, which leads to the front door and areas of lawn, enclosed by picket fencing and evergreen hedging.

The gardens are a real feature and provide a lovely backdrop to the property. From the paved parking area, a further driveway, flanked on each side by wide swathes of lawn and interspersed by an extensive variety of majestic specimen trees, leads to a five bar gate and adjoining paddocks created by post and rail fencing. One paddock features a stable block, comprising two loose boxes and a hay store and the mature planting creates a high degree of privacy and year round colour. Within the gardens, there are two green houses and several sheds, with the total plot amounting to about 1.67 acres.

Agent Note: The shared driveway access to the neighbouring property, Lodge Wood is adjacent to the boundary fence/wall of Heverswood Lodge.
