Overview

This deceptive home is a spacious detached chalet-style property that combines single-level living convenience with upper floor guest/children’s space and valuable future development headroom.

Set back from the road behind its own drive, the property has been improved by the present owners who commissioned a quality single-storey rear extension, transforming the ground floor into an airy, social heart of the home opening directly to the south-facing garden. The layout is highly adaptable: Three further ground-floor rooms allow you to choose a principal bedroom on the level, and option for further reception or bedroom space.
Upstairs, two further bedrooms and a shower room sit beneath the eaves – ideal for youngsters, visiting family or hobby rooms.

The generous rear garden, sunny orientation and proximity to village amenities and open heathland walks make this an appealing, practical home for many buyer profiles – from upsizing young families to downsizers who still want space and flexibility.

Accommodation

Arranged over two levels, the accommodation is arranged with side entrance into inner hallway, separating the front rooms and into the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room formed by the recent extension.

The kitchen is the social hub of the house, centred on a generous island/breakfast bar and fitted with extensive cabinetry, good work-surface provision and an integrated dishwasher; the 90cm Rangemaster range cooker is intended to remain (subject to the vendors’ onward arrangements/negotiation).

Bi-fold doors flood the space with light and give a seamless connection to the south-facing terrace and garden—ideal for everyday family life and entertaining.

A separate utility room provides laundry and boot storage

Three versatile ground-floor rooms allow you to choose a principal bedroom on the level and either further bedrooms or reception spaces, all served by a modern family bathroom.

Upstairs, two further bedrooms sit beneath the eaves and are supported by a handy shower room; perfect for children, visiting family or dedicated work space.

Outside

Front

Set back from Heckford Road, the property is approached over a private driveway providing off-road parking and access to the attached garage.

Rear

A real highlight: The plot stretches significantly to the rear enjoying a southerly aspect for day-long sun. Immediately outside the living space is a terrace ideal for outdoor dining.

Beyond lies an extended level lawn with established boundaries providing good privacy and a safe play environment. The depth offers ample room for vegetable beds, play equipment, summerhouse/garden studio or, subject to planning, further enlargement of the dwelling in line with the previously approved roof scheme.
