Chimneys is a superb detached house which stands in the centre of a 1.14 acre plot with delightful lawned gardens and attractive countryside views over the south facing rear. It is surrounded by mature trees and hedging. Built in 2000, the property has been sympathetically improved and extended by the current owners so that it provides an exemplary family home which is ideal for entertaining.
The beautifully presented accommodation extends to just under 5,300 sq.ft. It has a delightful light and airy feel with high ceilings and with the majority of the rooms looking over the private gardens that surround the house.
All the reception rooms are large with the reception hall providing an impressive entrance to the house with a solid oak staircase and views all the way through from the front door to the rear garden. The generous entrance hall also has a wood burning stove.
The hub of the house is the open plan kitchen/dining room which, in turn, has double doors to the lounge. The fitted solid oak kitchen has granite work surfaces, an oiled fired aga & an electric range Falcon cooker and hood. It also benefits from a central island incorporating a breakfast bar.
