Chapel Lawn, Bucknell, SY7

Please contact the office to arrange a viewing - believed to be one of the oldest properties in the village, it occupies a generous plot with meadow-style gardens and countryside views. A gate leads onto a grass-laid driveway with parking for several vehicles, as well as a carport and small workshop offering scope for larger workshop or garage use. The front of the house faces south and enjoys open views across to Caer Caradoc hill and hill fort.

The front door opens into a large sitting room with exposed beams and a Clearview wood burning stove. This is a bright, spacious room with a staircase rising to the first floor. To the rear of the sitting room, a glazed door leads through a side hallway to the downstairs toilet and to the kitchen. The kitchen has a traditional layout with quarry tiled flooring, freestanding and fitted units, a Belfast sink and a solid fuel Rayburn providing central heating. There is no upper cabinetry, maintaining an open feel, in keeping with the age of the property.

Off the kitchen is a conservatory-style dining room, with views over the garden and rear countryside. At the other end of the sitting room a side door leads on to a ground floor utility area, bathroom with bath and a useful storage room.

A large double bedroom is also located on the ground floor, providing the option for single-level living if required. Upstairs, the open landing area offers a flexible space which could be used as a study or hobby area. There are three further bedrooms, two of which are generous doubles with countryside views to the front and rear. A shower room (and) is located at the far end of the first-floor landing. It features a large walk-in shower with glass screen, tiled walls, a contemporary hand basin and a close-coupled WC.

The house is surrounded by gardens, which are laid out in an informal meadow style with mature apple trees, wildflowers, and areas of open lawn. The rear boundary adjoins meadows and the ancient oak woodland Bryneddin Wood, offering excellent privacy and a rural outlook. Unspoiled properties like this are a rarity nowadays and, with sympathetic updating, Caractacus offers the right buyer an exceptional opportunity to create a beautiful home in a tranquil location.
