An unusual opportunity to acquire a detached Victorian house, set 70 yards down a private driveway within beautiful grounds of 0.8 of an acre bordering farmland to the rear.

An attractive Victorian property with brick and tile hung elevations beneath a tiled roof. There are many appealing period features including four-panelled pine doors, sash windows and good ceiling heights throughout.
Due to the size of the garden it is considered that there is potential for extension and development subject to the necessary consents.

• Door to the kitchen with twin bowl sink unit inset into work surface with drawers beneath, space for oven. Space for fridge/freezer, plumbing for washing machine. Door to the side hall with herringbone flooring, Worcester gas-fired boiler, and further door to the outside. From the kitchen there is access to the loft space.

The Glen is approached from the road over a private driveway of 70 yards, flanked by areas of lawn and with fine mature rhododendrons and trees.
The gardens enjoy privacy with a York stone terrace to the front, an attractive well with well head, and a pathway leading round the side and rear of the property where there is a further area of lawn with flower borders and a magnificent chestnut tree.
There are two greenhouses and a garden shed. A wonderful feature of the property is that it borders open farmland to the rear. A small stream that crosses the land.
In all about 0.8 of an acre.
