House For Sale £775,000
Detached house in A highly sought after private road opposite national trust village common and church.............
Spook Corner is an appealing detached house of character built we believe just a few years after World War 11 and is located in an established location on the corner of Bentsbrook Park and Spook Hill in the centre of the village. The property has been in the same ownership since 1964 and is now being offered for sale for the first time in nearly 60 years. The property is in need of refurbishment and modernisation and offers considerable scope to extend and in so doing create an excellent family home. From some of the first floor rooms there are views eastwards to Holmwood Village Common and St Johns Church. Spook Corner has a mature garden, which is also in need of restoration and offers scope to create a charming secluded garden given the semi separate zones that have been created over the years. The drive which provides parking for several vehicles leads off Spook Hill whilst the front of the house fronts on to the start of Bentsbrook Park.
Historical note. Bentsbrook Park was formerly a country house owned by Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm, a celebrated sculptor during the Victorian period – his former studio, now a house, is located on the village common. Set in a wall in the garden of Spook Corner is a clay fired relief plaque featuring a gentleman and two ladies which although very difficult to assertion may have an historical connection.
