Detached Three-Generation Country Home on a Quiet Green Lane

Set in a peaceful and serene countryside setting, this bespoke detached country home is full of character and offers exceptional potential to modernise while preserving its charming farmhouse-style feel. With the main house and two separate units, this is an ideal opportunity for three-generation living, guest accommodation, or rental income. Planning proposals are also in place for redevelopment potential.

The main house is generous and versatile, featuring five reception rooms including a welcoming living room with a functional fireplace, a separate family room, an additional space currently used as a home office, and a dining room that flows beautifully into a light-filled conservatory with direct access to the garden. A fully equipped country-style kitchen sits separately, alongside a dedicated laundry room. The basement level provides extensive storage and additional utility space.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with built-in wardrobes, along with two large bathrooms and one en-suite.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a double garage, two greenhouses, large barns which are currently used for storage, extensive driveway parking for at least ten vehicles, and a large wraparound garden. The grounds are beautifully maintained, predominantly lawned, and bordered by mature trees and shrubs, creating privacy and a true sense of seclusion. Features include a greenhouse, pergola, stone pathways, and a wonderfully established garden that enhances the home’s character.

In addition, a converted barn provides further accommodation, currently arranged as two three-bedroom apartments with living rooms, kitchen and bathrooms. This flexible space could equally suit guest use, extended family, a playroom, office, or potential rental income.

Planning proposals indicate strong redevelopment potential, with the site located within the Built-Up Area under the current Island Plan, where development is supported in principle. The scheme explores improved parking and access, conversion of the existing barn into a two-bedroom dwelling, and the potential for additional residential units including two new three-bedroom semi detached dwellings with adequate parking and gardens. Overall, the site offers excellent flexibility for redevelopment, making it equally attractive as a family home with future potential or as a development opportunity.

Located on a quiet green lane, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial country home with space, privacy, and huge potential, all while retaining its traditional rural charm.
