Description
DESCRIPTION
A beautifully positioned four-bedroom semi-detached family home, tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Chipstead village, offering two reception rooms and a stylish open-plan kitchen/dining area, ideal for both family life and entertaining. The property enjoys a wonderfully tranquil setting, with the River Darent bordering the end of the pretty rear garden, where a raised patio provides the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the gentle sound of flowing water. The nearby lakes and picturesque surroundings further enhance the sense of peace and natural beauty, with the characterful Chipstead Village on the doorstep.
FEATURES
- The property is entered via a welcoming porchway, opening into a spacious entrance hall with attractive tiled flooring, creating an inviting introduction to the home and drawing you through to the principal living spaces.
- The kitchen/dining room is open to the entrance hall and enjoys views and direct access to the rear garden. Newly fitted in 2024 by Neptune, the kitchen features contemporary painted timber cabinetry, marble work surfaces and a central island with breakfast bar, creating an excellent space for both everyday living and entertaining. Appliances include a dual-fuel Rangemaster with electric ovens and gas hob, an integrated Neff dishwasher and space for an American-style fridge freezer.
- Opening from the kitchen, a second reception room is positioned at the front of the property and benefits from a glazed door opening to the entrance hall, creating a natural flow between the rooms. Currently arranged as a family room, this versatile space could equally be used as a playroom or home office. The room can also be opened up to create an impressive larger entertaining space when required.
- Across the entrance hall, the spacious sitting room spans the depth of the property, featuring parquet flooring, a bay window to the front and glazed door opening onto the rear garden and terrace. A wood-burning stove provides a focal point, complemented by useful built-in storage.
- To the rear, the utility room provides further storage, a sink and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with convenient direct access to the garden. A separate cloakroom completes the ground-floor accommodation.
- To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys lovely views across the garden and river, with plantation shutters and fitted wardrobes. The adjoining en-suite shower room features a contemporary rainfall shower.
- There are three further well-proportioned double bedrooms. Two are positioned to the front, with one benefitting from fitted wardrobes, while the third overlooks the rear garden and has space for wardrobes. A study provides excellent flexibility for home working or as an additional fifth bedroom if required.
- The bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, fitted with a bath and separate rainfall shower.
- The garden provides a tranquil retreat, thoughtfully landscaped to create several areas for sitting, dining and entertaining. Mature trees and established shrubs frame the garden, with areas of lawn and paved terraces leading towards a gated trellis, leading to the river.
- At the riverbank, the garden has been particularly thoughtfully landscaped to create a secluded seating area, providing a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy the gentle sound of the water and views across the village green.
- To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking for two cars, with additional fenced parking to the side for a further vehicle.
