House For Sale £2,150,000
Part of our Signature collection, this substantial detached four bedroom property occupies an established plot of approximately 4 acres. With established gardens, the house is in a wonderful position overlooking Chantry Wood with far reaching views of the surrounding countryside. The property was built in the 1950’s and is located at the end of a private drive with ample off-road parking and a detached double garage.

The reception hall provides access to all of the ground floor accommodation, which includes the formal sitting/dining room with a triple aspect and feature fireplace.
In a central position is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room with bi-fold doors to the rear leading out to the garden. The kitchen is well equipped, with an Aga, ample storage, a butler sink, and dishwasher.
There is a study, which is currently also used as a gym space, which provides access to the stunning living room.
