Property Description: A true gem in the heart of the Kent countryside. This stunning detached family home sits within approximately 2.5 acres of land and occupies 4412 sq ft of spacious accommodation laid out over three floors.
Built in 2008 to high specification, this property is approached down a long private drive and has gated security entry and immense privacy.
There is a tremendous amount of natural light throughout this entire property. It has been architecturally designed with the light in mind and designed with exceptional room proportions.
The grand entrance hall has an oak finish which runs throughout the ground floor and the staircase.
The stunning kitchen/breakfast room is fitted to a high spec and has granite work tops and plenty of oak fitted units for storage. The kitchen has a large centre island that doubles as a breakfast bar for convenient dining and is fitted with everything that you would expect from a kitchen of this calibre. There is space for an American fridge freezer, a six burner cooking range and a dishwasher.
The separate utility room has been fitted out like a second kitchen with plenty more wall and base units for storage and has a sink, convenient for laundry. There is also space for a washing machine and a tumble dryer and there is a cloakroom just to the side of the door out to the grounds. There is another ground floor cloakroom just off from the entrance hall.
The spacious living room runs the depth of the property and has a triple aspect that gives this room a light and airy feel. There is an exposed brick fireplace with a reclaimed oak mantle and a log burner. A large bay window to the front shines the light right through to the double doors at the back that open out onto the terrace.
The dining room is perfectly situated between the living room and the kitchen, linking the rooms together. This room has another set of French doors that lead out to the terrace, that are flanked either side with full height windows. This room has plenty of room for a large dining table and is a great room for hosting.
The outstanding principal suite is on the first floor, is dual aspect and has a Juliet balcony overlooking the breath-taking countryside views. This room has a dressing room and a stunning en-suite with a separate shower that has both a rainfall and a regular shower attachment. There are dual basins and a bath fitted beneath the windows so that you can enjoy the views whilst relaxing. There are a further two double bedrooms on this floor, both with well fitted en-suites.
The top floor has two identical sized double bedrooms both fitted with skylights. The modern family bathroom also has a skylight and has been well fitted within the eaves.
Outside: Approached down a long private drive, there is gated security entrance and a large turning area with substantial parking. There is a triple garage with power and lighting. There is an external staircase to side of the garage that leads up to a large studio which has a separate cloakroom. This would make a perfect work from home studio but also has fantastic annexe potential and could be developed further to include a kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, subject to the usual planning consents.
The beautifully landscaped grounds extend to approximately 2.5 acres and have the most amazing views past the paddock. There is a large terrace area which is a wonderful space for alfresco entertaining and a gazebo, which currently houses a hot tub. The garden has some well cared for mature plants and some artistic topiary. The grounds are bordered with an array of established trees.
