Introducing a distinctive period stone residence, this charming double-fronted home is being offered to the market for the first time in many years. Nestled within Chapmanslade’s High Street, this four-bedroom property boasts significant potential for sympathetic renovation, appealing to those looking to create their ideal family abode. Originally part of a coaching inn known as 'The King’s Arms' and dating back to the 1700s, this home has retained much of its historical charm while providing an excellent canvas for modern enhancements.
Set back from the road with a traditional stone boundary wall and surrounded by mature greenery, this property enjoys a sense of tranquility and privacy. The attached double garage and ample driveway are practical additions, ensuring convenience in everyday living. Enter through a welcoming porch into a small ante-hall that leads to bright reception areas. The sitting room features dual aspect windows and a log burner—perfect for cosy gatherings. Adjacent is the formal dining room, enhanced by a large south-facing window, built-in storage, and traditional details.
At the rear of the house lies a generous kitchen that benefits from natural light through its large window and skylights. It is equipped with country-style units, black granite worktops, integrated appliances, and underfloor heating—a real asset that can be further updated for modern family needs. Access to the garden from here adds practicality.
Upstairs reveals four spacious bedrooms arranged around a central landing. Each principal bedroom is well-sized with large windows offering pleasant views over the village and gardens. These rooms have great potential for redecoration or updating according to personal taste. The smaller fourth bedroom offers versatility as an office or dressing area. A family bathroom completes this level with picturesque garden views.
The exterior space is particularly noteworthy—a vast garden serves as an ideal blank canvas for gardening enthusiasts or those looking to expand their outdoor living area. To complement this space are a bespoke greenhouse and versatile outbuilding equipped with electric power connections.
It’s important to note some aspects requiring attention; there is a section of flying freehold at the rear, and it has been indicated that the garage contains an asbestos ceiling.
This residence not only boasts period features but also presents significant opportunities for renovation in a desirable village location with local amenities including schools and transport links.
