About this property

Built with an "Art & Crafts" influence at the turn of the 19th Century by the entrepreneur Herbert Goode, a rare opportunity to purchase this traditional period four bedroom detached home enjoying a substantial private plot tucked away behind flint studded walls and automated gates offering seclusion and privacy whilst being close to the centre of this charming Village. Cheynes Lodge enjoys a most comfortable arrangement of accommodation with highlights including a stunning vaulted kitchen/breakfast room built in an "Orangery" style with the further benefit of a generous double garage with spacious loft area converted to a useful workshop/home office. The established gardens are a particularly fine feature of this home enjoying complete privacy and seclusion with deep well stocked borders, specimen trees and substantial manicured lawns.
