Available to the market for the first time in a generation, this charming double–fronted period stone home occupies a prominent position along Chapmanslade’s High Street. With four bedrooms, a generous garden, and scope for sympathetic modernisation, it offers a rare opportunity to acquire a much–loved family home in this sought–after village. Dating from the 1700s, once part of a coaching Inn “The King’s Arms”, the site originally housed a malthouse, buttery and stables. The property is set back from the road, enclosed by a traditional stone wall and screened with mature shrubs and trees, providing a sense of privacy. To the side, an attached double garage and ample driveway parking add further practicality. A welcoming porch leads into a small ante–hall, from which the principal reception rooms can be reached. The sitting room, bathed in natural light from its dual aspect windows, features a log burner at its heart , the perfect focal point for cosy evenings. To the left, the formal dining room enjoys a large south–facing window, a raised fireplace, and built–in storage, lending an elegant, traditional feel. Towards the rear of the property, a smaller hallway leads to the staircase, a ground–floor shower room, and the generous kitchen. This dine–in kitchen is particularly bright thanks to a large window and skylights, fitted with an excellent range of country–style units, black granite worktops, and integrated appliances, and benefitting from cosy underfloor heating. Beyond lies a downstairs WC and direct access to the garden. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four bedrooms arranged around a central landing. The principal bedrooms are all well-proportioned doubles, each with large windows that flood the rooms with natural light and highlight charming outlooks across the village and gardens. They offer elegant proportions and a sense of quiet retreat, with scope to enhance further through redecoration or updating. The fourth bedroom, slightly smaller in size, would serve equally well as a child’s room, home office, or dressing room, adding flexibility to the layout. A good-sized family bathroom lies to the rear, fitted with a three-piece suite and enjoying a pleasant garden view. With its generous footprint, there is scope here to reconfigure or modernise to create a stylish and practical family space. Externally, the garden is a true highlight. Exceptionally large and offering huge potential, it is a wonderful blank canvas for a keen gardener to shape and enjoy. To the rear lies a Hartley Botanic bespoke greenhouse and versatile garden room/outbuilding, both with electric power connections.
