Built about 15 years ago by Macintosh Homes, Wessex Court is a small development of impressive Georgian-style houses surrounding a large, rectangular green situated in a quiet setting on the edge of the village. 4 Wessex Court faces out onto the green and to the village's imposing, Grade II* listed 12th century church beyond. Behind the house has a lovely view out over the garden. The house is faced with local stone under a slate roof and has accommodation on two floors with a suite of good-sized attic rooms in the roof space. It is well presented with light and airy accommodation that is well-lit by natural light flooding in through double-glazed sash windows. The ground floor has three reception rooms, which are all accessible from the reception hall. The large sitting room looks out on both the green and the garden and has a fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove. Double doors lead through to the adjacent dining room to create a large, single space for entertaining when required. The kitchen/breakfast room has recently been fitted with new units incorporating a central island, quartz work surfaces, Belfast sink, and a range of built-in Caple appliances. It also has a good sized space for dining. The adjacent garden room has a lovely outlook across the rear garden and French windows that open to the terrace. Upstairs the house has seven bedrooms split over two floors. On the first floor, the principal bedroom has an ensuite shower room and windows on two sides with lovely views over the garden. The guest bedroom also has an ensuite shower room and there are two further bedrooms sharing the family bathroom. On the upper floor in the roof space are two more double bedrooms and a further bathroom.

4 Wessex Court is approached off the green via a pair of wrought iron access gates to a parking area with space for several cars and an adjacent double garage. The house is set back from the road behind a dwarf wall surmounted by cast iron railings with a pedestrian access gate and paved path to the front door, which shelters under a rose-bedecked wrought iron porch. The rear garden is private and well-screened incorporating a glazed veranda and paved terrace that extends along the back of the house. The terrace opens out onto an L-shaped, level lawn, which leads round past a flower and shrub border to a timber garden store and small vegetable garden. To one side of the lawn and close to the house is a timber summer house with a fitted electrical supply.

OnTheMarket may have applied supplementary data to this property listing, including:

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on February 15, 2022

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 15, 2022

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on April 26, 2011 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
