4 bed 3 bath Chalet
Approximately 1.25 acre plot with mature gardens and fruit trees
Set on approximately 1.25 acres (subject to survey), this four-bedroom chalet bungalow in West Bergholt combines generous indoor accommodation with rare, extensive grounds. The house offers flexible living across two floors including a large L-shaped sitting room, a spacious kitchen/diner, conservatory and a 13ft study — suitable for family life and home working. Solar panels and programmable electric radiator heating help reduce running costs, while the sizable plot includes two stables and a 21ft workshop/garage for hobbyists or small equestrian use.
The property presents a blend of modern fittings and 1970s character: a contemporary kitchen and light-filled living spaces sit alongside dormer windows and period proportions. Accommodation includes three bathrooms and four double bedrooms, giving scope for multigenerational living or guests. The mature gardens, fruit trees and hedgerows provide strong privacy and excellent outdoor amenity for children and entertaining.
Practical considerations are set out plainly: heating is electric rather than gas, so buyers should review ongoing energy costs despite the solar panels. Broadband is very slow in the area, which may affect heavy home-working or streaming without alternative solutions. Council tax is described as expensive, and the long drive and grounds will require ongoing maintenance. The property is freehold and in a low-crime, affluent area with excellent mobile signal and convenient access to local village amenities and commuter routes.
Overall, this is a rare semi-rural family home for buyers seeking substantial outdoor space, equestrian or workshop facilities, and versatile accommodation. Early viewing is recommended for those prioritising plot size, privacy and adaptable living close to village services and transport links.
