Welcome to Merton, Boars Hill.
Set in the centre of its plot, Merton is a fantastic opportunity to create a wonderful detached home with beautiful views over paddocks and farmland.
Coming to the market for the first time in over 35 years, the property has been well looked after by it’s current owners but now presents an excellent prospect for a new owner to extend, improve or even replace (subject to planning permission).









First impressions.
Take a preview of this fantastic opportunity with Chris in the below video.

The layout at present includes a welcoming dual height entrance hall, large sitting room with full height windows making the most of the incredible views to the rear, dual-aspect dining room, kitchen, laundry room and a ground floor double bedroom and bathroom. There are two further large double bedrooms on the first floor alongside a family bathroom. All the rooms throughout the property are an excellent size.
Set behind gates off private Red Copse Lane, Merton is incredibly private. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs. Previous owners built a swimming pool into the south garden which could be reinstated with relative ease.
The residents of Red Copse Lane pay approx. £200 per annum each for maintenance of the lane.
