Set on a semi-rural plot of 0.2 acres (STS) this detached property was built circa 1640 and offers spacious accommodation, enhanced by a plethora of period features. The property itself would benefit from a programme of gentle refurbishment, with rooms above the garage having annexe potential.
Enjoying a prime location in the heart of Holton St. Mary, this outstanding property, originally constructed in 1640, stands as a timeless testament to the beauty and charm of traditional architecture without the restrictions of any graded listing. The property, steeped in history, exudes character, with many of its original features still intact, providing a rare glimpse into the past. The sturdy beams, authentic plasterwork, and timeworn floors whisper stories of centuries gone by, while the robust, thick walls offer a sense of permanence.
The residence has been thoughtfully adapted over the years to meet the needs of modern living without compromising its historic integrity. A noteworthy addition is the cleverly designed garden room, which seamlessly connects two buildings that stand perpendicular to one another. This space invites the outdoors in, allowing natural light to flood the room, offering a serene view of the lush, surrounding greenery. The garden room not only enhances the flow of the home but also serves as a perfect spot for relaxation or entertaining, blending the old with the new in a harmonious fashion.
Beyond the main living areas, the property also offers flexibility and potential for expansion. Above the spacious garage, there is a generously sized bedroom and bathroom, providing an ideal opportunity to create a self-contained annexe. Subject to the necessary permissions, this space could be transformed into a guest suite or an office, therefore offering versatility to suit various needs.
The garden offers a tranquil and private outdoor space, brimming with potential. While it currently requires some tender loving care to restore it to its full glory, the inherent beauty of the garden shines through.
Mature trees and established shrubs frame the garden, offering both shade and a sense of seclusion, while the paved terrace adjacent to the garden room invites alfresco dining and leisurely afternoons in the sun.
