Description: Saffreys is a detached 1950s chalet bungalow with brick and tile-hung external elevations beneath a tiled roof and double glazing throughout. The house was built by the Scottish artist and cartoonist, Alex Graham, part of which incorporated his studio, which has since been extended and modified to provide spacious and flexible accommodation of approximately 2,862sq.Ft/266sq.M, including an excellent self-contained annexe. Although the property has been well maintained by the current owners over the last 38 years, it is now in need of some general updating and also offers excellent scope for remodelling and increasing the living space further, if required (subject to the necessary consents).

Arranged over two floors the accommodation includes four double bedrooms, three reception rooms, three bathrooms/shower rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room, a cloakroom and a further kitchen (currently used as laundry room).

Outside, to the front of the property there is a large driveway providing plenty of parking, two single garages and a good-sized front garden, which is laid to lawn with a variety of mature shrubs and plants. There is access along each side of the property to the south facing gardens with a pathway on one side leading to a separate entrance for the annexe. The mature gardens are a real feature of the property and are laid to lawn with well established shrubs, plants and trees. There is a beech hedge dividing two separate areas of garden, which screens a swimming pool, which has a removal dome enclosure. The gardens extend to approximately 1½ acres and enjoy southerly views over surrounding countryside. The garden is fully fenced and borders woodland.
