Sutherland Road, Longsdon, ST9 9QD

Whittaker & Biggs are delighted to present this exceptional 17th-century stone-built detached home, a rare opportunity to acquire a property that blends historic character with modern energy efficiency.

Originally built in 1600’s and extended 1874, the home has been deeply retrofitted to PassivHaus EnerPHit standards, making it one of the most energy-efficient historic properties in the UK.

Every detail has been carefully considered to provide comfort, sustainability, and long-term wellbeing.

Set in a quiet village with stunning countryside views, the property spans approximately 1,609 square feet.

Renovation under a certified Retrofit Coordinator has ensured a fabric-first approach, prioritising insulation and airtightness.

Thermal bypasses have been eliminated, creating a warm, comfortable, and efficient home year-round.

The interior features two spacious reception rooms and an open-plan living, dining, and breakfast kitchen, filled with natural light and connected to a west-facing garden.

Ground-floor porcelain flooring, exposed stone, brick, and timber detailing combine practicality with historic charm.

Upstairs, three double bedrooms provide flexibility, with two fully plumbed potential en-suites and an additional bedroom to the ground floor.

The home benefits from a whole-house MVHR system, underfloor heating, a room-sealed log burner, and health-conscious, low-EMF, low-formaldehyde materials.

Modern conveniences include 24 data points, occupancy sensors, and ducting for future EV charging or gates.

The ground floor is wheelchair-friendly, with the pantry suitable for conversion to a wet room.

Outside, the large garden provides space for relaxation and entertaining, with ample parking for multiple vehicles.
