*GUIDE PRICE: £1.4M - £1.45M*



Nestled on a peaceful and highly regarded road in the leafy Surrenden district, this exceptional chalet bungalow represents a rare opportunity. The property has been skilfully extended and reimagined with contemporary architectural flair to create a truly versatile and luxurious family home. Generous proportions, an open-plan layout and striking floor-to-ceiling glazing combine to deliver a sense of light and space throughout.



Arranged across two floors (apart from a useful cellar), the accommodation includes a statement open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, a stylish lounge, home office, five well-appointed double bedrooms, two with en-suite facilities and a further indulgent family bathroom.



Complementing the interior is a large, landscaped rear garden that offers both seclusion and space for entertaining, while a private driveway and double garage with EV charging provide extensive parking. The immaculate white façade, contrasted against slate-grey roof tiles and elegant windows, sets a refined first impression.



The welcoming double-height entrance hall is flooded with natural light from a skylight, a south-facing frosted window and an entire wall of glass opening onto the rear garden. At the front of the house, the lounge is beautifully bright with a dual-aspect outlook, while the showpiece kitchen/dining/family room to the rear boasts a sleek contemporary finish with anthracite cabinetry, integrated appliances, underfloor heating and a striking central island. This superb space seamlessly flows through patio doors to the landscaped garden, ideal for al fresco dining and summer gatherings. From here, direct access leads to the garage, which easily accommodates two cars as well as additional storage.



On the ground floor, a cloakroom, a large utility room with bespoke cabinetry, and a versatile office/playroom (which could also serve as an additional bedroom) further enhance the home’s flexibility. Two double bedrooms are also situated on this level, one enjoying a private en-suite bathroom.



The first-floor hosts three further double bedrooms. The principal suite is a serene retreat, complete with a contemporary en-suite shower room, separate WC, ample eaves storage and a Juliet balcony with far-reaching views across the garden. The family bathroom is beautifully designed, with a freestanding bathtub providing a touch of luxury.



The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create an elegant and secluded outdoor oasis. A paved patio flows onto a large expanse of lawn framed by mature trees and planting, while a charming summer house is tucked away at the side. This tranquil setting offers the perfect backdrop for both entertaining and family life.
