A really interesting opportunity to purchase an individual detached, traditional, chalet style home, which we understand dates back to the early 1950s, and occupies a stunning, established and generous plot which approaches half an acre.

In its current guise the property offers around 1,450 sq.ft. of internal accommodation laid out over two floors. The property is an interesting, unique home offering up to three bedrooms and two receptions but offers considerable scope for further reconfiguration, extension or development subject to any necessary consents.

The property occupies a central location within this stunning plot which extends to around 285 ft. in length and around 0.5 of an acre in area. The gardens have been lovingly established over the last 70 years creating a delightful outdoor space, the whole site offering considerable potential to create a beautiful family home.

In addition the property is well placed, positioned close to the edge of the village but still within walking distance of the wealth of amenities with viewing coming highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
