3 Bedroom Detached House

Hidden from the road in a wonderfully private setting, this individual three-bedroom home offers a rare feeling of seclusion while remaining moments from the centre of Poringland. Surrounded by mature gardens, with just one immediate neighbouring property and views towards an adjoining paddock, this is a home with an exceptional position and exciting potential.

Built during the 1950s, the property is approached via a private driveway which provides off-road parking and access to the garage. Although the house would now benefit from modernisation, the generous proportions and versatile layout provide an excellent opportunity for the next owner to create a home perfectly suited to their own lifestyle.

The entrance hall immediately gives a sense of the space on offer and includes a useful walk-in storage cupboard. The sitting room is a comfortable principal reception room, enjoying a peaceful outlook over the surrounding greenery and featuring an open fireplace which provides a natural focal point.

Positioned across the rear of the house, the kitchen and dining room offers plenty of space for everyday family life. This area presents considerable scope for redesigning and refitting, with the potential to create an impressive open-plan kitchen and entertaining space. From here, a substantial garden room extends across the rear of the property, bringing in plenty of natural light and providing a direct connection to the garden. A shower room completes the ground-floor accommodation.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in storage, along with a useful third bedroom which would work equally well as a nursery, home office or dressing room. The family bathroom is positioned off the landing.

The gardens are a defining feature of the property, wrapping around the front, side and rear to create a wonderfully established and private setting. Mature silver birch, holly and wisteria sit amongst an array of established planting, while the rear garden enjoys an open outlook towards the neighbouring paddock. A pergola and seating area provide an attractive spot for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The wider setting has an interesting history, having once formed part of a Second World War radar station. Communications masts remain visible nearby and are a notable feature of the surrounding area.

For buyers seeking privacy, character and the freedom to create something of their own, this is an increasingly rare opportunity. Tucked away yet within easy reach of the village’s amenities, the property combines generous accommodation, mature gardens and genuine potential, all with the considerable advantage of no onward chain.
