Full Description: With its generous proportions, this substantial detached family home enjoys an attractive setting on The Heath, a private road in Chaldon. Extending to approximately 2,335 sq ft, the house offers four/five bedrooms and an excellent range of reception rooms. An entrance porch leads into the hallway and through to a large L-shaped living room. This is a room of excellent proportions, with a bay window, plenty of natural light and generous seating areas enjoying views over the garden. Wide sliding doors open onto the terrace, while the adjoining conservatory has double doors leading outside. The dining room connects naturally with the main living space, creating a sociable setting for entertaining. A separate bay-fronted sitting room adds to the generous reception space. The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and is fitted with a modern range of wall and base units, complemented by extensive work surfaces, deep drawers and tiled splashbacks. The sink and mixer tap sit beneath a large window, while a range-style cooker with a gas hob is set below an extractor hood. There is space for a dishwasher and undercounter fridge, with tiled flooring throughout. Beyond, a rear lobby provides access outside and connects with the cloakroom and generous utility room, which has additional cupboards, work surfaces and a sink, together with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A staircase rises from the entrance hall to the first-floor landing, from which four bedrooms are arranged. The principal bedroom benefits from an extensive range of fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom.

The front garden is laid to lawn with established shrubs and mature trees, while a covered passage runs alongside the garage.

Broad lawns extend away from the house, interspersed with rose beds and flowering shrubs, with mature trees providing an impressive backdrop. A large paved terrace overlooks the garden, offering ample room for outdoor dining and entertaining, with shallow steps leading down to the lawn. Towards the far end, a timber summerhouse with glazed double doors takes full advantage of the outlook back across the garden towards the house.
