Nestled in the heart of Sandyford Village, 'The Chalet' is a distinctive residence that seamlessly blends historical charm and character with contemporary potential. Set on approximately 0.20 hectares (0.5 acres) of gently sloping grounds, this property offers an unparalleled sense of privacy and seclusion, thanks to its mature trees, well-maintained lawns, and established hedgerows. The expansive gardens not only enhance the property's aesthetic appeal but also present significant opportunities for extension or further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

This space flows seamlessly into the family room, which overlooks the front gardens. The ground floor also includes a study or fourth bedroom, a dining room with access to the rear garden, and a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room equipped with traditional fittings and modern appliances. Additionally, two bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate tiled shower complete the accommodation at this level. Upstairs, the main bedroom offers elevated views towards the city, complemented by an ensuite shower room and walk-in wardrobe. A magnificent living room on this floor features a central fireplace and access to a sunroom/conservatory views of the rear and side gardens and panoramic views across the cityscape to the front.
