House For Sale £950,000
Detached home with outbuildings & scope to update.
Description
Stables, Chevening Road is an attractive detached family home, converted in 1965 with an extension in 1967, and comes to the market, with no onward chain, for the first time in 58 years. The bright, versatile and well-proportioned accommodation provides the incoming purchaser an ideal opportunity to update and renovate, subject to the necessary building consents. Of note are the established gardens which wrap around the property, amounting to about 0.6 of an acre, together with garaging and several outbuildings. The property is situated within approx.2 miles of the popular villages of Chipstead and Riverhead and is well-located for schools and road links.
Arranged over the ground floor is a generous, triple aspect sitting room with a wood tongue and groove ceiling and a brick fireplace inset with a wood burning stove and a dining room with a staircase rising to the first floor. The well-appointed kitchen has a range of wall and base units, an integral oven and space for a dishwasher, with an adjoining utility room which has access to outside.
Also on this floor are four bedrooms, one currently utilised as a study, a shower room and a bathroom with a separate WC. Arranged over the first floor are two further bedrooms with skylights and a cloakroom.
The property set back from the road with established hedging to the boundary and approached via a long private driveway, flanked on one side by a large area of lawn, interspersed by fruit trees, leading to the garaging.
The gardens wrap around the property, with the established boundaries creating a high degree of privacy. The large detached garage has an adjoining studio/workshop and there are several large outbuildings.
In total, the plot amounts to about 0.6 of an acre.
