Church Road, Tingrith

SET ON A PLOT OF 0.5 ACRE ENJOYING OPEN VIEWS OVER FARMLAND AND THE VILLAGE CHURCH, A DETACHED HOUSE WITH A SUBSTANTIAL RANGE OF TRADITIONAL TIMBER FRAMED AND BRICK BARNS.

Set in the conservation area and being the very last house in Church Road, Carisbrooke House enjoys a most pleasant location and outlook with country walks literally on the door step. The house and barns offer potential for extension to create a larger dwelling or conversion to a detached annex for an extended family (subject to necessary consents).

The property comprises a hall, shower room, study, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, bedroom three/dining room on the ground floor with two double bedrooms and another bathroom on the first floor. Outside the gardens are set on all four sides of the house and include an original range of five open fronted timber feather edge boarded barns and two good size brick built storage barns.

Carisbrooke House is an ideal family home, one to downsize to or as a longer-term remodelling opportunity.

Properties that enjoy such a location and potential are increasingly rare and a viewing is recommended.
