Built in the late 1940’s Ridgeway is a 4-bedroom detached family home situated on the edge of the village, benefitting from approximately 0.34 acres and a superb home office.
Property Description
Originally dating from the late 1940’s, Ridgeway
is a versatile family home which sits centrally in
its exceptionally private and mature gardens and
grounds. This well-presented home has been
recently extended to create a large utility room
with cloakroom and subsequently benefits from
planning permission in perpetuity for further
alterations.
The house is approached through wooden gates
onto a gravel drive providing parking for several
cars. There is a detached workshop studio with
mezzanine storage which could also serve well as
a second home office, with opening to the front
and side, overlooking the mature and private front gardens and established pond. To the rear of the property, there is a large south facing lawned garden and to one side sits a detached home office which benefits from its own decked terrace, perfect for working from home.
