Property description
This is a large detached family house with varied and adaptable accommodation with great emphasis on space and natural light. The house is in a beautiful location on Daisy Bank Road with open countryside across the lane and the most stunning views out over the valley. From this high vantage point you can see across the town and far into the distance to rolling hills and countryside.Individually built in the 1970s to a high specification, this house has space combined with natural light and the layout could easily lend itself to having a self-contained annexe on the lower ground floor. With 7 bedrooms, there is also plenty of space for a home office, study or even studio if required. Also on offer: garage and parking/turning area, an outdoor heated swimming pool with surrounding terrace and garden, plus another lower level garden which is laid to lawn.This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well proportioned family home which can be adapted and updated for your needs. Set away from main roads yet within striking distance of town, Leckhampton shops and schools, it has countryside on its doorstep.
