Property description
With a truly fabulous location and an impeccably presented interior, this deceptively spacious, extended property offers a superb family home.
DESCRIPTION
56 Chevening Road is a truly superb single story dwelling situated in the heart of the picturesque village of Chipstead. The house has been lovingly restored and extended by the current owners and now boasts 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a large kitchen / diner leading into a separate sitting room. Its large and secluded rear garden, which has a patio area and generous lawn, backs onto the expansive Chipstead lakes. All in all, the space, condition and location of this property should make it top of any list to view.
ACCOMMODATION
The useful porch leads onto the welcoming entrance hall, laid with solid oak boards. From this hall, there is access to three good-sized double bedrooms, some of which have their period features of fireplaces, picture rails, and two of which have in-built wardobes, plus a further single bedroom and the large and tasteful bathroom with separate bath and shower cubicle. There is a useful storage cupboard, before you reach the generous, extended kitchen / diner. Beautifully appointed, this room is fitted with cream shaker style cupboards, solid oak worktops and an island with hob and extractor hood above. The large, square bay floods this room with light, as do the patio doors which lead out to the rear garden. From this room, you enter the sitting room, which again has patio doors leading to the garden. Back slightly down the hall, and there are stairs up to the thoughtful loft conversion, which serves at the moment as the fifth bedroom with lounge area, but could just as easily be an additional reception space. There is a really stylish en-suite bathroom on this floor, which completes the accommodation.
OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a tarmac driveway with turning area and parking for up to 5 or 6 cars. To the rear of the property, there is a large garden of approximately 150 feet, laid predominately to lawn with various shrubs, trees and a large patio area. There is a useful shed and a secure rear gate leads to the footpath and Chipstead lakes beyond. The seclusion and setting of this garden is a real feature of the property.
