House For Sale £800,000
For sale by informal tender - closing date Friday 9th December at 12 noon.
A delightful, unmodernised cottage with outbuildings and land on the edge of Bunbury village.
Description
Norbury Cottage is a charming property which is believed to date from the early 19th Century, with Flemish bond brickwork beneath a slate roof.
It has belonged to the same family for many years and has been a wonderful home, offering land and stabling for horses and a special village location offering access to all that the Bunbury village community has to offer.
The house and barn are in unmodernised condition, requiring full renovation. However, it also offers a wonderful and extremely rare opportunity to create a property to one’s individual specification.
The house has accommodation arranged over two floors with the panelled front door leading into a staircase hall with reception rooms to either side, both with fireplaces.
At the rear is a laundry room, with a wc off, which links to the kitchen with a range of storage units, an oven, hob and extractor. There is a larder and a conservatory which currently provides storage. The Worcester condensing oil-fired boiler is located in the kitchen.
On the first floor are three bedrooms, one with an en suite dressing room, and a family bathroom.
The barn is served via the same access from the lane and houses three stables with a loft above. At the rear is a single storey corrugated lean-to.
The house is set in attractive gardens with mature trees and various shrubs and plants. At the bottom of the garden is a single-storey building currently used as a hairdressers. The lease expires in April 2023.
There are far-reaching views to the rear over the land and beyond. The land is arranged in paddocks which for many years have been used for horses.
<b>Development clause</b>
The property will be sold subject to a development clawback clause affecting all the land. Further details can be provided by the agents.
