Property description

A modern three double bedroom detached chalet style property with driveway parking, a double garage, and a store room, set back from the road in private established formal gardens of approximately 0.57 acres, for sale with no upper chain.

The property was built to an individual design in the 1980s and has approximately 2,139 sq. ft. of versatile ground floor accommodation with three separate reception rooms, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room and a utility room. There are also two en suite double bedrooms, a third double bedroom and a shower room. The first floor is currently accessed by a remotely operated staircase from the hall and has approximately 844 sq. ft. of versatile space measuring just over 46 ft. x 13 ft. It is currently an open plan room with an adjoining store and has potential for conversion into additional accommodation if required. The gardens are a major feature of the property. The front garden has a shaped lawn screened by mature hedgerow and mature trees and bushes. A pillared gated entrance leads to a driveway providing parking for several cars as well as access to the double garage which is entered by two remotely operated doors and has power connected. There is an adjoining store room.

Reception Rooms

The dual aspect sitting room has a feature brick fireplace with a raised hearth currently with a gas fire but has facility for working fire. A bow window to the front overlooks the driveway. Glazed double doors with matching windows either side lead into the separate dining room which has glazed sliding doors to the rear garden, and glazed double doors to a separate nearly 19 ft. garden room with views and double doors onto the garden.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room and Utility Room

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted in a range of dark wood fronted units, including glazed display cabinets, with complementary work surfaces. Integrated appliances include an electric oven, a hob with an extractor, a separate microwave, a dishwasher, and a fridge. The adjoining utility room has a fitted base unit with a sink, space for freezer and plumbing for a washing machine, a freestanding oil fired boiler and a part glazed door to the rear.

Rear Garden

A gated side access leads to the rear garden which is fully enclosed by a combination of mature hedgerow and trees to the rear which provide a high level of screening and privacy. It is principally lawned and has a shaped raised terrace area. In one corner of the rear garden there is a timber summerhouse with a raised deck in front.
