Abnash, Chalford Hill, GL6 8QL

Blackbird Cottage is a substantial character home in a secluded south facing position at ever popular Chalford Hill with far more accommodation than the original attractive façade would have you believe. This is as a result of a clever, sympathetic extension some 35 years ago, that effectively doubles the living space on offer. The resulting interior extends to almost 2,000 sq. ft, with spacious, well balanced accommodation arranged over three floors. An entrance porch and hall lead into a 16' x 16' sitting room with windows to two aspects and a fireplace with a wood burning stove. A door takes you through to a first class kitchen/family room. This generous space measures 27' (max) x 19' and is the perfect area for modern family life, with a snug area with fireplace with wood burning stove, dining area and kitchen - all the space you need to cook, congregate, eat and entertain. Glazeddoors open from this room to the courtyard at the side, connecting the inside and the outside. In addition, there is a useful shower room on this floor, beyond the kitchen. A staircase leads up from the hall to the first floor. A landing, bedroom, bathroom and two large connecting rooms are on this level. The latter is currently used as a double bedroom with connecting office, but you may look to partition the first room to create another separate bedroom, dressing room or en suite bathroom (subject to relevant consent). Two more bedrooms and a useful landing/study are at the top of the house, on the second floor. The house is tastefully decorated, and all of the windows enjoy a pleasant, 'green' outlook, over the garden at the front or neighbouring open land to the side and rear. A brilliant family house, perfectly placed for the friendly, inclusive community of Chalford Hill but also affording privacy - truly the best of both worlds.
