This highly versatile family home is set on a spacious, level plot of approximately two-thirds of an acre, located on a desirable road near Chesham Grammar School. Presented for sale in excellent decorative condition, the property features a large open-plan living, dining, and family room, with the potential to create a self-contained annex on the ground floor.
A pretty storm porch with pitched roof leads to a solid wood front door which opens to the entrance hall where stairs rise to the first floor and doors open to the ground floor accommodation. The dedicated living room is a wonderful place to relax and is flooded with natural light by means of quadruple aspect lighting with a box window to the front and a window to the rear. The living room is also a cosy space to enjoy during the winter months with an open grate fireplace. One of the centrepieces of the property is undoubtedly the stunning open plan kitchen/dining/family room which has a window to the front and bi-folding doors opening to the rear garden. The kitchen has been fitted with a high specification German 'Häcker' kitchen comprising a range of base and eye level units, integrated appliances and central island all finished with Quartz work tops. From her a door opens to the utility room which could be used as a kitchen area should this space be converted into an annex. From here a door opens to another reception room which the current sellers use as a gym which in turn leads to a dedicated study to overlook the rear garden. A ground floor cloakroom completes the ground floor.
The landing area of the first floor has a window to the front and doors opening to all five double bedrooms. Both the main and the second bedroom boast ensuite shower rooms while the main family bathroom is fitted with a luxuriously appointed four piece suite to include separate shower cubicle and bath. From the first floor there is ample space and scope to add a second staircase to the attic which has excellent potential to convert to further accommodation should this be required.
The front is part enclosed with fencing with an opening leading to a large gravelled driveway providing ample parking and turning space. From here double doors open to the garage which has power and light. An ample width access to the side leads to the rear garden where there is an extensive patio area directly to the rear of the house leading to the main portion of the garden which is laid to lawn. With far reaching views over neighbouring farmland there is a wooded area just beyond the rear of the garden and a number of outbuildings which could be either converted or replaced into a home office, gym or other such unit.
