CHAIN FREE STUNNING ECO HOME plus BUILDING PLOT WITH PP set in SOUGHT AFTER VILLAGE in IDYLLIC RURAL LOCATION. Spacious, bright and modern five bedroom house plus adjacent building plot with planning permission in place in perpetuity for an additional 4/5 bedroom home, plus micro-business potential via the EHO-Approved detached garage. The property was built by the current owners as their family home in 2016 and boasts top end fixtures and fittings throughout, including stone floors and locally sourced granite work surfaces. The property’s eco credentials include an award winning Kensa ground source heat pump, partially powered by a 4 kW solar panel array that is owned outright. This system is controlled by central time controls for both water and underfloor heating on both floors to maximise daylight solar efficiency. These items in combination with ample insulation result in an EPC rating of B (91), only 1 point shy of an EPC rating of A.

The gravel driveway can accommodate additional parking for 3+ cars. The property has been meticulously maintained and is decorated to the highest standards throughout. Planning for construction of two 4/5 bed homes with double garages was granted in 2011. Construction of The Orchard commenced works, and therefore consent for construction of the second dwelling remains in perpetuity.
