OVERVIEW:

Stepping through the part-glazed front door, you’re welcomed into a spacious entrance hall complete with attractive decorative floor tiling and illuminated by a charming porthole window. Storage abounds with high-level cupboards and a fitted coats’ cupboard with convenient hanging rail. The hall seamlessly flows into the dining area, defined by practical herringbone Amtico flooring and augmented by folding doors that beckon you to explore the garden, offering versatile usage of this inviting space.

Recently refitted by local artisans Ruach of Westerham, the kitchen blends the charm of yesteryear with contemporary flair. Quartz counters and upstands harmonise with bespoke Shaker cabinetry in complementary grey tones, maximizing the lofty ceiling height. A stylish breakfast bar invites casual dining, while thoughtful touches like a dedicated pantry, clever storage solutions and ambient LED lighting elevate the culinary experience. A full gamut of fitted Neff appliances completes this defining space, where a 1.5 bowl sink - with multi-functional Quooker tap - has been strategically placed to enjoy pleasant garden views, framed by a picture sash window.

The drawing room exudes refined Victorian elegance, showcasing balanced proportions, a high ceiling, authentic picture rail/cornicing and soaring heritage double glazed, sash windows, equipped with their original shutters. The focal point is a majestic fireplace comprising an ornate marble surround and recessed Cleaview log burner, complemented by modern column radiators and exposed floorboards reinforcing the period aesthetic. A further porthole windows provides an additional design accent, whilst a part-glazed door leads to the adjacent snug, a popular space for entertaining with its feature bar, central rooflight, and direct garden access. A convenient boot room completes this section of the ground floor.

A passageway from the entrance hall leads to a versatile dual-aspect reception room, ideal as a study or additional bedroom, with an adjacent cloakroom. This area, together with the garage, is believed to have been converted from a coach house and stabling in the 20th century, adding a further historical dimension to the property.

A staircase ascends to the first floor, branching left and right to reveal bedrooms on both sides of the house.

To the left, the original part of the house hosts three characterful bedrooms, all with fine original features to include fireplaces, high ceilings and sash windows. Two of the bedrooms also benefit from built-in wardrobes. Accompanying all is a stylish family bathroom, encompassing a roll-top bath with ball & claw feet and shower over, WC and vanity console with basin and integral storage.

To the right, a luxurious principal suite, formed from two rooms, enjoys panoramic garden views and includes a dedicated dressing room with fitted wardrobe furniture. A sliding wall ensures though that all could be reinstated to two separate bedrooms should one wish.

A striking adjacent shower room with double sized walk-in shower and integrated washing machine, completes the layout.

EXTERNALLY:

The property is approached along a cobbled pathway leading to the entrance door. To the front of the property there is an electrically operated roller door to a car port leading through to driveway parking complete with turning area, discreetly nestled within the expansive garden.

Established gardens sprawling over approximately an acre, envelop the home in natural beauty. With a favourable westerly aspect, they feature an array of mature trees, ‘secret’ pathways, ponds, and a charming gazebo-style garden room with a log burner, creating an enchanting outdoor retreat.
