Kingsclere presents a unique opportunity to acquire a truly individual property; an attractive 1930s three-bedroom detached family home, well-loved and benefiting from double glazing and gas central heating throughout, and offering excellent potential to modernise and extend (subject to permissions). The property occupies a larger-than-average plot with mature, secluded gardens, extensive driveway parking, and a garage, and is ideally located within a short walk of reputable schools and open countryside.
The lovely red-brick house is approached via double gates, opening onto a spacious driveway and generous front garden, with a wraparound pathway leading to the rear. Internally, a bright entrance porch with adjoining ground-floor WC featuring a round window opens into a welcoming reception hallway adorned with cornicing and picture rails. To the front elevation is a substantial lounge with an attractive bay window, original hearth, central ceiling rose, cornicing, and picture rails, while to the rear is an equally well-proportioned dining room with an electric fire, ample space for formal dining, and central ceiling rose and cornicing. The remainder of the ground floor is occupied by a kitchen/diner fitted with wooden cabinetry and a breakfast bar, offering clear scope for updating to suit modern tastes. A light-filled rear porch with exposed brickwork provides access to the enclosed rear garden, a generous lawned space with excellent potential for landscaping or redesign. A side pathway leads to the garage, which can be accessed via a side door, with an excellent greenhouse attached.
To the first floor are two spacious double bedrooms, both with built-in storage—one enjoying a charming bay window—alongside a third roomy single bedroom, which could be also be re-purposed as a home office if required. These are served by the house bathroom, fitted with a bath and shower over, along with a spacious airing cupboard. The landing is also enhanced with cornicing and picture rails, reflecting the property’s classic character throughout.
