This week's stand out property, Chapel House in Whatfield, is a recently renovated period house, on the market with Chapman Stickels for £635,000

Formerly a pair of early Victorian cottages, a later addition was built to the rear which was the former village chapel.

Despite its historical importance to the village, the property is fortuitously unlisted which gave the opportunity to fully renovate and modernise the house, yet its period charm and integrity has not been compromised.

The comprehensive works also include re-roofing, re-wiring, bespoke double glazing throughout, a new oil-fired heating system, integrated cinema system to the dining area and the construction of a detached office with wired internet access and air conditioning.

The reconfigured accommodation is both practical and pleasing, where the welcoming reception hall with brick flooring opens into the magnificent kitchen/dining room which is stylishly fitted with hardwood work surfaces, butler's sink, range cooker, bespoke cupboards, drawers and work 'island'.

The dining area is extensive, with full-height bi-fold doors giving much natural light. Beyond is the utility/boot room giving further useful storage, work surfaces and a new oil-fired boiler.

The remaining reception space comprises the front sitting room which reveals the building's period origins which, similarly to the reception hall, has exposed ceiling beams and a focal fireplace housing a recently installed wood burner.

The first floor is equally well-presented with neutral colour schemes to all the bright and airy bedrooms. Of particular note is the rear main bedroom with roll-top bath on a raised wooden base below a central window giving delightful views over the garden.

Outside, the house is recessed well back into its plot giving a pleasing approach, with a shingle driveway and adjacent gardens defined by attractive wrought iron railings.

The principal rear garden offers a good deal of privacy from neighbouring properties, which consists of a rear patio area leading onto the main lawn, with the detached modern office set to the north-eastern boundary.

Beyond, the garden tapers off onto arable farmland and the boundaries are clearly defined by timber fencing. In all, the property covers about 0.25 acres.
