House For Sale £575,000
Tucked away with no passing traffic, this truly unique former coach house boasts a great deal of space and heaps of potential for further development (subject to permissions). A supremely private garden and large garage/workshop complete this wonderful home. Having been a well loved home to the current owners since the 1970s, Southfield Lodge is ready for its next custodian to cherish and enjoy. Although there is some general updating required, the potential is here to create an outstanding property. NO ONWARD CHAIN
Stepping through the front door, you arrive in a large hallway which opens out to a bright dining space and enormous living room. There are two ground floor double bedrooms, one of which enjoying dual aspect windows and kitchenette area. These rooms combined with the large, four piece bathroom offer a great opportunity for multigenerational living. The living room has a fireplace where one may wish to explore the options of an open fire or wood burning stove. Found to the rear, the kitchen features a great deal of space and dual aspect windows allowing lots of natural light whilst a spacious conservatory completes the ground floor. The first floor is split into two separate areas with two stair cases and offers an exciting opportunity to combine both whilst taking advantage of the loft space (subject to permissions). The current accommodation includes a double bedroom with dressing area and a small single room. The second area features a loft room to the front where although not plumbed in, a shower cubicle and wash hand basin have been installed. There is also a second incredibly spacious loft room and separate WC.
To the front of the property you find driveway parking which leads to the double garage. This has two doors on runners, power and light, lending itself well as a workshop or potentially more accommodation if required (subject to permissions). If more parking is required, the area of garden to the side could be made into parking without compromising the remaining garden. The rear garden is a lovely size and is mostly laid to lawn with a patio area and greenhouse. The hedge borders enhance the feeling of privacy although they could be removed to gain more usable space with the garden remaining very private.
The current owners had plans to join the landing with the remaining roof space. These plans (from the 1980s) included a balcony off of the larger room to take advantage of the wonderful setting. Should a buyer go through with developing this space, new plans and permission would need to be sought although the property could then feature four first floor bedrooms as well as the ground floor rooms.
