Well-presented detached house affording incredible countryside views.

Chestnut House is an individual modern home built in the 1990's. The property is of traditional construction with red brick cavity walls, a tiled roof and offers generous accommodation with more recent improvements including replacement of the kitchen, double glazing and the conversion of the double garage into a gym/studio/home office. The rooms have a light and airy feel and the bedrooms are particularly spacious enjoying stunning countryside views. The agents would thoroughly recommend an internal inspection in order to fully appreciate the home on offer.

Benefitting from oil fired radiator central heating and the newly installed double glazing, the accommodation currently in brief comprises of a spacious entrance hall with built-in cupboard and stairs off to first floor. From the hall, doors lead to the cloakroom, study and to the dual aspect sitting room with sliding glass doors to gardens and a fireplace with wood burning stove is a particular focal point. The dining room is an ideal reception for entertaining with double doors opening to the kitchen, which has been updated with a modern range of units providing plenty of drawer and cupboard space with integrated appliances and a separate utility room has fitted units and door to garden.

On the first floor, stairs rise from the entrance hall to a spacious landing with window to rear affording amazing countryside views. The principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and is complemented by an en-suite shower room. The two remaining double bedrooms also provide delightful views and are served by a family bathroom completing the accommodation.

Outside - The delightful gardens provide an abundance of trees, flowers and shrubs. The property is approached via a gravelled driveway, which provides parking for several vehicles and leads to the detached double garage which has recently been converted to form a gym and studio. The remainder of the front garden is laid mainly to lawn with mature hedging, flowerbeds and a magnificent horse chestnut tree. The oil tank is positioned discreetly to one side of the garden. Gates, to both sides of the property, give access to the rear of the house.

The rear garden faces due west with splendid views across undulating open countryside and enjoys the afternoon and evening sun. The garden has been well-designed and is planted with a selection of trees, fruit bushes and flower beds. A sweeping gravelled terrace provides an ideal area for alfresco eating and entertaining. Within the garden is a timber shed/workshop and separate summer house.

Location - The house is situated in the heart of the village down a no through lane with a westerly facing rear garden backing onto open countryside and organically farmed fields. The area is a stunning haven for wildlife and the garden an ideal setting to enjoy this from. There are excellent local walks to further enjoy the attractive location. The village has a strong community spirit and is well located close to the A134 which leads to both Sudbury and Bury St Edmunds, these in turn give access onto other main road network routes. Both Towns offer excellent shopping and recreational facilities and good railway links both locally and to London. The well regarded and well served village of Long Melford is situated just two miles to the south of Alpheton.

A regular bus service from the village green to Sudbury and Bury St Edmunds including school buses, is available on a daily basis.

Directions - When travelling along the A134 towards Sudbury from the direction of Bury St Edmunds, when entering the village of Alpheton turn right at the village green into Church Lane, passing the garage on your left where the property will be found set back on the left-hand side.

Services - Mains electricity, water and drainage. Babergh District Council. Council Tax Band E. EPC Rating: D.
