A well-proportioned detached house set in almost 2 acres of fabulous gardens enjoying a blend of formal lawns and wooded areas that are a haven for wildlife. The house requires modernisation and could, subject to planning permission, be extended to create a sizeable family home.
Windward sits centrally within its plot approached by a driveway flanked with front garden. Built in the 1930’s the house has a traditional layout with a good flow of accommodation over two floors. A porch leads to a small entrance hall with two linked reception rooms on one side, a living room at the rear, and a kitchen breakfast room. Beyond the kitchen is a laundry room and another hall leading out to the front of the house. Upstairs there are four good sized bedrooms and two bathrooms enjoying views to the front over the adjacent farmland and the glorious garden at the rear. The gardens are most noteworthy enjoying complete privacy and very well established. The front garden is a series of rooms linked by natural archways where once there were vegetable patches and fruit trees. There are two garages, one which is detached and the rear garden has a large lawn bordered at the rear by a copse of trees extending to the far boundary with farmland beyond.
