The Hamlet, Chettisham, CB6

Set in an enviable cul-de-sac position with far-reaching countryside views, Clearview is an immaculately presented and highly versatile four-bedroom detached chalet-style home, occupying a plot of over an acre (STS). This exceptional property not only offers generous and beautifully maintained living space but also comes with outline planning permission for the demolition of the existing garage and the erection of a separate self-build dwelling (approved 22nd January 2025, Ref: 24/01229/OUT).

On the ground floor, a welcoming sitting room enjoys a front aspect with views over the front garden and open countryside beyond. An attractive fireplace with an inset multi-fuel burning stove creates a warm focal point, and a stable door leads through to the separate dining room. The dining room flows naturally into an impressive kitchen/breakfast room, comprehensively fitted with an extensive range of units, ample work surfaces, and a range cooker. From here, a door opens into the bright conservatory, which offers a wonderful vantage point over the rear garden and direct access outside.

The ground floor also includes three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while a family bathroom serves the remaining two bedrooms. An inner hall houses a staircase to the first floor and provides useful storage.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to a triple-aspect fourth bedroom, enjoying far-reaching views from multiple directions. A cloakroom is conveniently positioned on this floor.

The exterior of the property is truly a highlight. A gravel driveway, accessed via a five-bar gate, leads to a generous parking area and a detached double garage. The extensive gardens are thoughtfully divided into sections, offering a mix of formal and informal spaces. Nearest the house, a paved terrace and pergola with climbing roses provide charming spots for outdoor dining. Beyond, a series of vegetable beds, a greenhouse, and a variety of fruit trees—including pear, damson, Victoria plum, apple, and greengage plum—create a productive kitchen garden. Further still, the grounds open into a meadow interspersed with mature trees and bordered by a mature Beech hedge with archways leading to the final meadow area, which backs directly onto open countryside.

With its blend of spacious interiors, extensive and varied gardens, and the rare opportunity to create a second dwelling, Clearview offers an outstanding lifestyle opportunity in a peaceful yet well-connected village setting.
