Chalgrove House, built in 1978, is a detached property with attractive brick elevations beneath a pitched tiled roof. Although it requires some slight updating, the house is well-positioned at the end of a private driveway, offering seclusion within approximately 0.25 acres of beautiful gardens. The property is conveniently located within a short walk of a thriving pub, the village primary school, and a nearby children's play area.
The entrance hall, featuring solid wood flooring, leads to the inner lobby with a purpose-made bar and filling cupboard. The sitting room boasts an attractive fireplace with a wood burner stove, triple aspect glazing, and sliding doors to the rear garden, providing ample natural light. The kitchen/breakfast room is well-fitted with handmade units, a central island breakfast bar, range-style cooker, and integrated dishwasher. A utility room and a rear lobby with access to the double garage complete the kitchen area. The ground floor is completed by a cloakroom with w.c and boot room with shower cubicle.
Upstairs, a split landing features a mezzanine area suitable for a study or reading space. The other side of the landing accommodates four generously sized double bedrooms, three of which have fitted wardrobes. The main bedroom includes a stylish en suite shower room, while the first floor is completed with a family bathroom featuring a concealed unit with a w.c, bidet, washbasin, and a panelled bath with a shower attachment.
The property's large gravelled driveway leads to a double garage with electric doors provides ample parking, and the front garden includes a well-maintained lawn with established trees, bushes, shrubs, and flower beds. Gated access leads to the south-west facing rear garden, laid to lawn with a paved border, water features, flowers, shrubs, trees, and two storage sheds. The entire property extends to 0.25 acres, offering excellent privacy.
Additionally, there is a purpose-built annexe ideal for a home office, additional bedroom, or a self-employed business person. The annexe features two reception rooms with doors to the rear gardens and a separate w.c., providing versatility and additional space.
