This unique detached property has huge potential for further development (STRPP) with an Annexe and 5 Acres!

Situated on the outskirts of a charming village, Gannaway House is a detached period property offering a wealth of character and potential. Built in 1896, with earlier 18th-century elements, this home requires modernisation throughout but presents an excellent opportunity to restore and personalise a unique rural residence.

With flexible accommodation, including a two-bedroom annexe, extensive outbuildings, and approximately 5 acres of grounds, this property is ideal for those looking to create a dream home in a peaceful countryside setting.

The main house features an array of original period details, from exposed timber beams and brickwork to pine doors, but is in need of updating to meet modern living standards. Some windows have been replaced with uPVC double glazing, though further improvements are needed to enhance energy efficiency and comfort.

Inside, the ground floor opens into a hallway with storage space, leading to a large kitchen/dining room that overlooks the gardens and paddock. Although the kitchen requires refurbishment, its size and layout offer plenty of potential for a contemporary open-plan design. The adjoining drawing room, with its fireplace and cozy ambiance, would benefit from restoration to bring it back to its former glory. A versatile ground-floor room offers potential as a study or extra bedroom. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms with exposed beams offer charm, with one featuring a dressing room. The first-floor bathroom, while functional, would benefit from modernisation.

The annexe, connected to the main house but with its own private entrance, includes a spacious kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga, and a light-filled sitting room. Like the main house, the annexe offers scope for updating throughout. On the first floor, two double bedrooms with exposed timber beams and a shared bathroom provide further accommodation, perfect for extended family, guests, or potential rental.

Externally, Gannaway House sits within mature gardens that, with some attention, could be transformed into a beautiful outdoor space. The west-facing lawn, bordered by shrubs and fruit trees, is complemented by a brick patio area. Beyond this, an additional garden area includes a garden store and oil storage tank. A five-bar gate leads to a courtyard with a range of traditional outbuildings, including a barn with garage doors, a tack room, four stables, and an open-fronted loggia. These outbuildings provide significant potential for conversion into additional living space, home offices, or leisure facilities, subject to planning permission.

The property also includes a paddock with a picturesque pond, surrounded by traditional hedgerows and post-and-rail fencing. This area is ideal for equestrian use or simply enjoying the rural views. A large grass field to the west, with its own road access, further enhances the possibilities for this charming, yet in-need-of-modernisation, countryside retreat.

LOCATION

Agents Note

To do so Experian may check the details you supply against any particulars on any database (public or otherwise) to which they have access. They may also use your details in the future to assist other companies for verification purposes.

We have not tested any of the electrical, central heating or sanitary ware appliances. Purchasers should make their own investigations as to the workings of the relevant items.

Floor plans are for identification purposes only and not to scale. All room measurements and mileages quoted in these sales particulars are approximate although please note there is an increase in the sqft when taking into consideration the RHH.
