Accommodation Summary:

Ground Floor:

Due to the south-facing rear aspect, natural light floods 2 Chapter Close, particularly apparent in the sitting room and double aspect kitchen diner. This is a house with wonderful proportions, allowing larger families or groups to gather in one room without feeling cramped. Bi-fold doors from both main reception rooms offer easy access to the outside, and the kitchen leads through to a generous and useful utility/boot room and then on to a large garage, which includes the plant room. Off the welcoming entrance hall is the study, a perfect space for those working from home.

Of course if not required as bedrooms, these rooms could suit a variety of uses.

To the first floor are 3 further generous double bedrooms, again all benefitting from an ensuite. The additional smaller room at this level provides useful storage for a large family or could make a second office/study space.
