Property description

A modern four double bedroom detached chalet style property occupying an elevated position along a no through country lane in the village of Odell.

The property has been significantly extended and fully refurbished and now has 2,219 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. Included are exposed oak flooring with underfloor heating, contemporary style oak doors and a full turn staircase to the first floor landing. The sitting room at the rear of the property is open plan with the kitchen/dining/family room, connected by a wide opening. Both rooms have bi-fold doors to the garden allowing a free flow for entertaining. There is also a separate utility room, and an office which could alternatively be used as a study or a fifth bedroom. There are two ground floor bedrooms, both with en suite shower rooms, and a family bathroom. The principal and guest bedroom are on the first floor, both with vaulted ceilings and sharing a Jack and Jill en suite bathroom.

Sitting Room and Kitchen/Breakfast/Family Room

The over 20 ft. by over 16 ft. sitting room has a contemporary style feature fireplace with a facility for a multi fuel stove. The kitchen area is fitted in a modern range of high gloss soft closing base and wall units including an island unit and breakfast bar, all with quartz worksurfaces. Integrated appliances include an electric oven, a microwave, a hob with extractor over, a fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The bi-fold doors to the patio and garden and a lantern skylight maximise the ingress of natural light to the open plan area.

Outside

A stone wall with a pillared entrance at the front leads to a gravel driveway which provides parking for four cars. There are also two raised lawned areas bordered by stone walling and an external electrical charging point. A gated side access leads to the rear garden which is principally lawned with a paved terrace area extending across the rear of the property. The garden is enclosed by timber and chain link fencing, and houses the oil storage tank.

Situation and Schooling
