SUMMARY
Spacious 5-bed 1960s detached home with versatile layout, large garden, double garage, paddock, rural views, oil heating, and 2.3-acre grounds. In need of modernisation throughout but being sold with no onward chain!


DESCRIPTION
A generously proportioned five-bedroom detached property, likely originating from the 1960s, which has been thoughtfully extended over time to create a spacious and adaptable family home. Arranged across two floors, the property offers an array of flexible living spaces, including three main reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast area, five bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a sizeable attic room with substantial potential. The layout is particularly versatile, with most of the living space, aside from bedrooms four and five and the attic room, situated on the ground floor, allowing for flexible use to suit varying family needs. Although the attic room currently lacks a window, it offers an excellent opportunity to be transformed into an additional living space or bedroom with dormer or Velux roof lights, subject to the necessary permissions. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and double glazing throughout.


Set within generous gardens enjoying picturesque views, the property also offers ample parking to the side and rear, together with a double garage.
Adjacent to the main house is an additional paddock extending to approximately 1.73 acres, which in the main is subject to an Agricultural Land Use Covenant, contributing to the total landholding of around 2.3 acres. The entire property lies within a Special Landscape Area.
The Swallows is conveniently located midway between the villages of Peterston-super-Ely and Pendoylan.
