"As you move through the house, you quickly notice how well the layout works day to day, with bright living spaces and a garden that really benefits from its sunny aspect". Pippa Barnes - Chantries and Pewleys
This is a house that feels immediately welcoming, with a calm, considered finish and excellent natural light throughout. The front reception room is centred around a wide bay window fitted with plantation shutters, allowing light to flood in while maintaining privacy. Bespoke cabinetry and a wood-burning stove create a clear focal point and give the room a sense of warmth and character.
The dining room sits at the heart of the house and works as a genuine everyday space, comfortably accommodating a table and linking naturally with both the reception room and the kitchen. This connection makes the layout feel practical and well balanced, particularly for day-to-day family life or having friends round.
To the rear, the kitchen is fitted with modern shaker-style units, generous worktops and integrated appliances. The layout is efficient and well thought through, with good storage and clear work zones. A door opens directly onto the garden, strengthening the relationship between inside and out and making the space easy to use in warmer months.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double with built-in wardrobes and plenty of natural light. The second bedroom is a comfortable double, while the third bedroom is currently arranged as a home office, demonstrating its flexibility as a nursery, guest room or workspace. The bathroom is finished in a clean, contemporary style, with neutral tiling and a bath with shower over.
Outside, the south-west facing garden enjoys afternoon and evening sun. A paved terrace sits directly behind the house and works well for outdoor seating, with steps leading up to a lawned area bordered by established planting and fencing. A garden shed provides useful storage, and the overall layout feels private, manageable and easy to enjoy.
