Property description

A modern four double bedroom detached chalet style property, occupying an elevated position close to the entry of The Bury with far reaching views to the front over open countryside.

The property is situated on the site of the original Pavenham Bury, an historic country house, demolished in the 1960s and replaced with this popular development in the village. The house is approached by a treelined driveway, which serves this and two other detached properties, and this property retains the former rose garden and mullioned stonework. It has been thoughtfully enlarged and improved and has ground floor bedrooms allowing single storey use if required. There is 2,124 sq. ft. of accommodation over two floors. The ground floor has three reception rooms, two double bedrooms, a shower room, a cloakroom, and an open plan kitchen/breakfast room. The first floor has two bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes and en suite bath or shower rooms. The roof space provides potential to create an additional bedroom subject to planning permission. A covered walkway links the house to the garage and workshop, and has a door to the rear garden.

Entrance Hall and Reception Rooms

The entrance hall has wood flooring, a cloakroom, and a full turn staircase to the first floor. Doors lead to the ground floor shower room and bedrooms, and the reception rooms. The sitting room has a box bay window to the front overlooking the garden and open fields beyond. It has a feature period style marble fireplace set on a raised hearth housing a log burning stove. The dining room has glazed sliding doors to the rear garden. The study has a fitted work station and a built-in shelved storage cupboard. This room could be adapted for use as a further bedroom if required.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room

The kitchen/breakfast room has gloss fronted units with granite work surfaces incorporating an inset sink and a breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, an electric hob with an extractor over and a dishwasher. There is a utility area with matching units, worksurfaces with a sink, and an integrated fridge/freezer. It houses the oil-fired boiler, and there is space and plumbing for appliances. A part glazed door leads to the covered walkway.

Gardens

The front garden is terraced, and has borders planted with a variety of mature shrubs and trees including yew, inset with pathways to the front door. A side access leads to the rear garden which is enclosed mainly by close boarded fencing. A rear gate accesses The Bury. A paved pathway leads to the rear of the house with steps up to an elevated lawn with further established borders providing a haven for wildlife.
