Tucked away within a private and secluded setting in Morton on the Hill, this exceptional three-bedroom Gothic-style home offers a rare opportunity to own a property of genuine architectural distinction. Set on a generous plot with no direct neighbours, the home enjoys a peaceful, almost storybook atmosphere, surrounded by open space and mature greenery.

The striking exterior is a beautiful example of Gothic architecture, with original brickwork, decorative detailing. This sense of character continues inside, where the property has been tastefully modernised throughout while retaining a number of its original Victorian features, ensuring the home feels both authentic and comfortable.

The internal layout is well balanced and thoughtfully arranged. A welcoming entrance leads through to a separate sitting room and dining room, both enhanced by elegant archways opening into bay windows. These features not only highlight the home’s architectural heritage but also flood the rooms with natural light, creating warm and inviting living spaces ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The modern kitchen is sleek and practical, designed to complement the home’s character without overpowering it. Just off the kitchen is a useful utility/storage room, providing valuable additional space for appliances, laundry, and household essentials — a practical feature often missing in period homes.

The property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, each continuing the blend of modern finishes and period charm. The Victorian-style bathroom is a particular highlight, beautifully finished and in keeping with the character of the home, offering a relaxing and elegant space.

Externally, the property sits within a substantial plot, offering privacy, flexibility, and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. With no immediate neighbouring properties, the home feels wonderfully secluded — ideal for those seeking tranquillity, a countryside lifestyle, or a private retreat. The outdoor space also lends itself to further landscaping, entertaining areas, or quiet enjoyment.

Previously operated as a successful Airbnb, the property has proven appeal as both a lifestyle purchase and an investment opportunity, making it equally suitable as a main residence, holiday let, or second home.

Combining historic charm, modern comfort, generous outdoor space, and total privacy, this is a truly unique property that stands apart from anything else in the area.
