Property description
A substantial, enlarged chalet style property with a versatile level of accommodation.
Originating from the 1950's, Brambles was initially constructed as a substantial single storey dwelling that has been subsequently enlarged, including twin stairwells giving access to the roof space which provides additional accommodation. Opening off a through-hall, the property provides for a total of 2 / 3 ground floor bedrooms served by 3 bath/shower rooms (1 en suite) with a sitting room (having an open fire), a useful study (potential additional bedroom) and a sizable open plan kitchen/dining room that opens to a garden side conservatory. Overhead, the twin stairwells serve a further 2/3 bedrooms and an independent shower room. Externally, the property has a fine well-stocked lawned garden in which is situated a range of outbuildings in the form of a chalet style studio, 2 useful workshops, a garden store room and integral garage. In all, an ideal family home.
