Vendor's Insight
We have spent the past 10 years thoroughly enjoying our home. We love living here and the flexibility it gives us for multi-generational living and entertaining in a pretty village location. We often have friends and family to stay and can do so with ease. Chatwyn House has a lovely south facing aspect, filling the rooms with light. We have tried to keep the original features where possible and replaced when needed. We value the easy access to our private garden that is frequently used for relaxing and entertaining. The location means we have restaurants, pubs, cafes, village hall, community centre, spa/gym, post office and shop all within walking distance and easy access to airport, mainline railway station and major roads.
