Description

This well-established detached chalet home is set on a generous plot of approximately 0.15 acres and features ample off-street parking, including a double garage that accommodates up to three vehicles. Owned by the same family since its construction in the 1960s, the property has been thoughtfully maintained over the years while still presenting an opportunity for renovation or extension (subject to planning permission). The location is a notable highlight, located conveniently near Avon Heath and Moors Valley Country Parks, Lions Hill Nature Reserve, and the Castleman Trail. This makes it an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts, particularly those who enjoy walking or have pets. Internally, the property boasts a sensible layout with both spacious and flexible living areas. The upper floor comprises three bedrooms equipped with ample storage solutions, complemented by a family bathroom. On the ground floor, you’ll find a welcoming entrance hall leading to various living spaces: a study that could serve as a fourth bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, along with a dual-aspect sitting room and formal dining area. The kitchen/breakfast room is generously sized and provides direct access to the garden. The rear garden offers a private oasis, accessible through both the kitchen/breakfast room and sliding doors from the dining area. Enclosed by high fencing and surrounded by mature trees and shrubs, this space ensures seclusion while featuring a paved seating area alongside well-maintained lawn. In addition to efficient gas central heating and double glazing throughout, the property’s sweeping driveway leads to not only the double garage but also an additional single garage on the side of the house, providing versatile space suitable for cars, boats, or motorhomes. With its solid foundation and desirable location paired with potential for updates or expansion, this property stands out as an investment opportunity in a sought-after community.
