Additional Info
Little Braziers has been our beloved home for 12 years. We invested in interior designers to meticulously craft each major room. The upgrades include new downstairs flooring with large polished concrete tiles, a completely redecorated formal dining room and drawing room, and a contemporary Scandinavian two-sided natural wood-burning fireplace. The new family bathroom is styled in grey and white with high-quality silver furnishings and a modern suite. The large master bedroom features fitted wardrobes, a dressing area, and a spacious en-suite with a modern shower, roll-top bath, and Italian tiles. We also installed new lighting throughout.” “The house offers a feeling of complete privacy, set away from the road down a private drive. Its imposing yet warm design is nestled on land with large mature trees and frequent sightings of kites, rabbits, muntjac deer, and rare birds. It is completely safe and secure while being within walking distance of Chipperfield – offering the best of both worlds.” “There is so much we love about the house—the genuine privacy, the tranquil setting, and the ability to entertain large groups of friends and family all year round. The downstairs rooms flow seamlessly, opening up in the summer and providing a cosy retreat by the fire in the winter.” “We have cherished seeing our children’s smiles as they played in the garden, had water fights, learned to drive, and enjoyed various outdoor activities like snowball fights, football, badminton, croquet, rugby, trampolining, Easter egg hunts, and hide and seek.” “Little Braziers is perfect for entertaining both inside and outside. Music can play without disturbing anyone, and the space has hosted countless memorable celebrations, including numerous birthday parties, company events, and gatherings with friends and family. You can relax in a quiet spot with a glass of wine or join the main group in the kitchen or on the terrace. The property feels entirely secluded, providing a sanctuary from the outside world.” “The main kitchen area is a central hub where we mingle, gather around the island, eat together, watch movies, or simply chat. The dining room has been the scene of many large family gatherings at Christmas time with the fire roaring, music playing, and an abundance of great food, laughter, and wine.” “Our neighbours are respectful and courteous, always ready to help while valuing each other’s privacy. The community consists of a mix of professionals, farmers, and entrepreneurs. We connect via WhatsApp groups and occasionally entertain each other, but only if desired.” “Chipperfield offers a wonderful array of amenities, including the recently refurbished Chipperfield Boot pub, the family-owned Italian restaurant Osteria, and the renowned Two Brewers pub/restaurant on the main green. Additionally, there is an updated post office, a local convenience store, Blackwells bistro café with regular events, and the Cake Shack coffee shop.” “We truly cannot choose one specific thing we will miss about our home—we will simply miss it all. The privacy, the space, and the cherished memories of raising our family here will always hold a special place in our hearts.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
