4 bedroom detached house for sale

South Acre is a quiet dialogue between architecture, craft and landscape. Set up on the hill where woodland meets sky.

Every element has a warmth to it and there’s a deep sense of care here. The welcoming kitchen opens into a charming dining room through a curved glazed walkway; the ideal space for the family to gather. From there, double doors lead into an living room with a cosy inglenook fireplace, perfect for entertaining or just relaxing A second, snug sitting room offers a more intimate retreat. With four well-appointed bedrooms, two with en-suites, there is room for the whole family. Each room boasting beautiful views of the surrounding garden.

Some interiors may welcome a gentle update in places but this is a home that has been deeply loved and well maintained, offering a characterful canvas for those wishing to personalise this charming home.

The gardens spill gently around the house; with sweeping lawns, raised beds and fruit trees with their seasonal colour creating a magical landscape. A morning coffee on the terrace, the hum of bees in late summer, the golden light falling over the fields at dusk, this is a home in quiet conversation with its surroundings.
