Property description
This impressive house has at it's core a building from the 1930's which has been substantially extended. It makes a superb family home with plenty of space and an easy flow between the core living areas.
The reception hall is spacious and lit from an arched window halfway up the staircase, which curves from the hall to the first floor landing. The impressive hall has doors leading off to all the downstairs living areas. The substantial triple aspect living room has views onto the front lawn and boarder hedges that separate the property from the lane. The other side has French doors and windows that open onto views of the stone pathway/patio, open lawn and flowerbeds.
The large professional artists studio/outbuilding originally housed a swimming pool which is now boarded over and could be re-instated. The building has been sympathetically renovated to include a steel frame Apex roof with light streaming through the entire north face. It has been insulated and timer clad on the outside so that it fits in with the local architecture and Kent landscape. The double garage with up and over doors is near to the kitchen and external utility room. Behind the garages is a further level hard surface parking for up to five vehicles.
A well maintained and mature garden with several specimen trees surrounding the property with a feeling of private parkland. It is not overlooked and there are opportunities for enjoying the sun from dawn until sunset.
What the Owner says:
We have loved living here for the past few years, this house is filled with memories and we will miss the beautiful gardens as well as the village and all the local amenities a stones throw away.
We have made several changes to the property including adding a wood burning stove on a marble hearth and the house is gas central heated throughout were we have installed a new boiler and radiators.
When we were first looking to move to Kent this village and the house ticked all our boxes, with its ease to the M25, M20 and Swanley town centre.
When our eyes saw the garden we just fell in love. We both love to paint so with the light flooding within the house, the peaceful gardens and the studio we had to have it.
