Chanters, Alleyns Lane, Berkshire, SL6 9AE

A generously proportioned home situated on one of Cookham Dean’s most desirable roads, within beautifully landscaped gardens and with the benefit of a large detached garage and outbuilding.

Description Chanters is a beautifully presented home quietly situated along a private lane of similarly impresive detached houses.

The house was built in the 1930s with a charming thatched roof and Tudor Revival-style wooden beams which provide character.

The house offers flexible, well-proportioned accommodation with a large outbuilding, extending in total to about 3,800 sq ft. It occupies a generous plot amongst attractive, well maintained gardens.

It is the ideal family home and has a number of impressive features, including a sweeping driveway, a detached double garage with games room presenting an opportunity for an annexe (subject to permissions), and ample living space that’s equally suited to family life as well as entertaining.

The interiors are presented to a good standard and offer fantastic scope for further modernisation.

The house is entered onto a generous entrance hall leading to a light-filled sunroom at the front of the house, a fitted study, a sitting room with stone fireplace, and a dining room with half-panelled walls; this trio of reception rooms forms the perfect space for formal occasions.

Separately there is an inviting family room and an open plan kitchen and breakfast room, which has an adjoining utility with space for laundry machines.

Upstairs there is a principal bedroom with a dressing area and an en suite shower room.

A further en suite bedroom is the ideal guest suite while the remaining two double bedrooms (making four bedrooms in total) share a family bathroom.

Chanters is situated on one of Cookham Dean’s most prestigious private lanes: The setting is unrivalled and offers a high degree of privacy, with mature trees enclosing a spacious plot with countryside to the rear.

A sweeping gravel carriage driveway leads up to the house and a detached double garage with a separate games room, WC and storage space.

The mature gardens to the front and rear are well tended and feature a variety of mature trees, established borders and well-stocked flowerbeds around an expansive lawn, with a number of areas for seating including a large paved terrace and a pretty summerhouse adjacent to a pond.
