Description: Vista is a welcoming detached bungalow which was constructed in the 1970’s and which we believe has been extended at the front. The property offers opportunity for potential further loft conversion (subject to necessary planning consent). The property is of traditional brick construction with a mix of brick and cedar clad elevations with a mix of aluminium and UPVC double glazed windows beneath a pitched tiled roof and part felt flat roof.
The property is situated on Dixter Lane, a quiet road situated on the edge of Northiam village which benefits from 2 supermarkets, post office, bakery, hardware store, opticians, doctors’ surgery, dentists, pop up village pub, church, village hall, playing fields and primary school.
Vista is accessed from Dixter Lane over a gravel driveway providing ample off-street parking with a stepped limestone path leading down to a central front door with glazed panels either side. The front door opens into an open plan hallway that leads through the property to the rear living space and vistas beyond. To the right of the hallway is an open plan kitchen with glass block rear feature wall, grey kitchen units with laminate worktops, stainless steel sink, below a front facing window, and with space and plumbing for a dishwasher, a large electric range cooker with extractor hood above and fridge freezer. Opposite the kitchen is a bedroom suite with walk through dressing area leading to the bedroom with front facing window as well as access to a bathroom with panel bath with shower above and wash basin. Next to the bedroom is a cloakroom WC and beyond this is a corridor leading to side utility room with side windows and glazed side door out to the garden and benefitting from plumbing and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. An inner hallway provides access to three double bedrooms, two of which enjoy stunning rear views looking over the garden and beyond over the Rother Valley, while the third bedroom looks out over the front. A family bathroom is also accessed from the hallway with large panel bath, walk in shower, pedestal wash basin and close coupled WC.
The main living room at the rear of the property has a glazed rear door and a large vista window attracting the eye through to a stunning view looking out over the garden and beyond in a northwest direction towards Sandhurst in the distance.
Externally the property benefits from generous off-street parking at the front of the property with a former car port and garage now been converted into a studio / home office / bedroom with glazed rear doors which offers possibility for a self-contained annexe subject to planning consent. At the rear of the property is a paved seating area and overgrown terrace that looks down over a generous rear garden that descends down to a rear paddock that is bounded by woodland and which incorporates a number of fruit trees as a as well as couple of coppice of young oak trees. We believe the whole property provides approximately 1.5 acres (TBC).
The property is three quarters refurbished with new wiring, new plumbing, new central heating, new bathrooms, and new fitted windows at the front. It now offers the opportunity for a purchaser to complete the refurbishment and extend the property with planning consent for a roof conversion and opportunity for further updating.
