4 Bed Detached House For Sale

The Old Wash House is a modern, extended and refurbished detached bungalow situated on a large plot on the edge of the village.  Built in 1951, the property was originally in the grounds of The Old Rectory which featured a walled garden (now the village bowling green)  and, in the corner of the old garden, was a wash house - hence the name of the bungalow.  The wash house itself is now the owners' studio for artwork but would also lend itself to ancillary accommodation.

The main house has an open plan kitchen/dining/living room with a separate utility, a good sized sitting room, 3 bedrooms (2 with en-suite shower rooms) and a family bathroom.  The current owners have also run a small successful bed and breakfast business from the property with 2 of the bedrooms being at the opposite end of the bungalow to the main living accommodation and the principal bedroom suite.  Further benefits include 10 solar panels with a battery storage system and an electric vehicle charge point.

Outside an extensive gravelled driveway provides parking for several vehicles whilst the garden wraps around 3 sides of the property offering a private and secluded outdoor area.

Sculthorpe is a village blessed with amenities that many other villages of its size no longer have.
