Find Out A Little More .... - Chapel House is a delightful late 18th-century brick-and-pantile residence, double-fronted with an elegant off-centre panelled door and 16-pane sash windows. Extensively refurbished in 2022, the home beautifully marries heritage features with modern craftsmanship. Highlights include handcrafted hardwood flooring, custom-designed kitchen and bathroom fittings, and slimline European cast-iron column radiators.

At the heart of the house, the central staircase hall, laid with American Walnut parquet, creates a generous and inviting reception space. From here, the accommodation flows effortlessly into the principal rooms. The double-aspect sitting/dining room extends some 27 ft, showcasing mellow American Elm floorboards, bespoke cupboards and bookshelves, and an exceptional Rais wood-burning stove with a sculptural circular form and curved glass door. A separate snug, also adorned with elm flooring and a tall sash window overlooking the charming village street, features wall panelling and connects seamlessly to the kitchen/breakfast room.

The kitchen/breakfast room is superbly appointed with painted Shaker-style cabinetry, a double Butler sink, striking Blue Roma quartzite work surfaces, and integrated Fisher & Paykel appliances. A curved peninsula island, incorporating a breakfast bar, forms the centrepiece of the space. There is a traditional walk-in pantry offering excellent storage, fitted with matching cabinetry and quartzite surfaces, and illuminated by motion-sensor lighting. Beyond, a versatile utility/laundry/boot room provides direct access to the garden, while a cloakroom with a Butler sink and dog shower - easily reinstatable as a conventional shower - adds further practicality. The first floor landing is naturally lit by an electric Velux window with a rain sensor and provides access to five generously proportioned double bedrooms, all benefiting from good ceiling heights, and one of which features built in wardrobes. Bedroom 4 is currently arranged as an office, with original floorboards and bespoke fitted bookshelves and cupboards; alongside is an en suite bathroom with tiled flooring and contemporary fittings, including a basin set within a vanity unit and a spacious walk in shower with a rainfall head. The house bathroom is appointed with a bath with shower attachment and twin ceramic basins.
