Chantry Lane, Necton

Occupying a desirable position within the well-served village of Necton, this detached residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful former public house that has been thoughtfully adapted into an impressive family home.

A covered entrance porch provides a welcoming introduction to the home, leading directly into the principal reception space. The entrance immediately conveys the property's warmth and character, setting the tone for the accommodation beyond.

The living room is a particularly inviting room, flooded with natural light through dual-aspect windows and centred around an attractive feature fireplace housing a wood-burning stove.

Moving through the property, the snug provides an additional reception area with its own feature fireplace and direct access to the rear garden through glazed doors. This versatile room offers the perfect environment for relaxed evenings, reading, or family gatherings, while the staircase rises from here to the first floor accommodation.

Further enhancing the ground floor is the sitting room, another beautifully presented reception space featuring a fireplace and pleasant front-facing outlook. Offering excellent flexibility, this room could serve as a formal dining room, family room, home office or children's playroom depending on individual requirements.

The kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home and has been thoughtfully designed to provide both practicality and style.

There is ample room for a dining table, creating a sociable environment for everyday meals and entertaining.
