Description
I'm a real believer than a home is about how you feel when you walk into a space. And few houses conjure up the same feelings as I had when I walked into 'Little Chapter'.
That feeling starts when you're driving into Wincle village, surrounded by fields and incredible views.
Pulling up onto the driveway with the church as your backdrop, the aesthetic of this former public house is more than impressive. A sneak peak over the side gate and you can see the old stables, now home to ample storage and an office separate from the main house - ideal for those running businesses or working from home and currently supported by the Starlink network.
Step inside to a formal living room with stone floors, an open fire, original lead windows and a window seat - to name but a few of the features. A further dining room and informal lounge ( with a log burning stove for those winter evenings) all face the front aspect of this grade 2 listed home.
A boot room/utility, access to the cellar, a sun room and a recently refitted kitchen/breakfast room complete with in-built wine chiller and Aga complete the ground floor.
Take yourself upstairs where there are five, good size bedrooms housed. The master has a front aspect over the fields, with feature fireplace and an en-suite shower room. The view from the shower room is nothing short of breath-taking and I can only imagine waking up to that every morning.
In fact, all of the bedrooms have wonderful outlooks over the village and fields. Watch the tractors in the fields at the back, bird-watch from the window - it genuinely does feel like countryside bliss.
Outside, a private driveway leads to the old stable building. Now home to storage and the water treatment system. Upstairs is the office which itself has a log burner.
Gardens wrap this home, with cleverly designated zones. A pergola with hottub area. Several seating areas and all sat in approx 1 acre of land.
Spot red kites over the fields at the back, as I did. Or an array of birds that visit your garden whilst you enjoy coffee on one of the many terraces.
Essentially, there are few words that can sum this home up. And actually, you just have to experience it for yourself.
Book your viewing tour now. You wont be disappointed.
