    About this property

    • A charming and abundantly characterful home in the heart of Chew Magna. The property has been lovingly looked after and restored by the current owners and now represents a cosy and contemporary home in a prime, central village location.

      The front door leads into a spacious entrance hall with plenty of space for coats and boots, spot lighting, a terracotta, tiled flooring, built-in timber shelving and cabinetry. The Shaker style kitchen is around to the left and has been recently refurbished throughout. There are solid, oak worktops with a tiled backsplash, timber shelving, ample base units for storage as well as a range cooker with five ring gas hob, Belfast sink, integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. The adjoining dining room extension is delightful with abundant natural light entering via a skylight as well as large, glass double doors opening out onto the south facing garden. There is a separate utility off the kitchen housing the white goods as well as a modern shower room. Off the dining room is a charming family room with integrated storage and wall mounted down lighting. This room would work well as a playroom, dining room or cinema room. The living room is located to the front of the property and is wonderfully charming with a stone fireplace and duel aspect. A characterful bay window looks out over the street.

      The three bedrooms are located over two floors. Bedrooms two and three are on the first floor and are both decent doubles and carpeted with abundant charm in the form of exposed beams, working shutters and timber framed windows to the front and UVPC double glazed windows to the rear. Bedroom two has stunning views over the garden as well as integrated wardrobes. Also on this floor is a slate tiled, modern family bathroom with a deep bathtub and separate walk-in shower. The room has a duel aspect via a Velux skylight and is lovely and bright. On the top floor is a stunning and spacious principal bedroom in the eaves of the house with exposed beams and charming views.

      The garden is accessed via the dining room and is wonderfully bright with a south facing orientation. There is a graveled seating area immediately off the house which provides a delightful spot in which to sit out. Further down is a mature herb garden, garden shed, greenhouse and lawn. The end of the garden is extensive and wilder, under a canopy of trees, providing a wonderful space for children, dogs or further horticultural activities. A gate at the end of the garden leads onto a footpath which leads directly out to the countryside.
