Property
This charming bungalow was built in the 1950s and has been a cherished home for many years. It is an ideal property for downsizers who want to live within walking distance of Sevenoaks High Street but also offers a development opportunity for those who wish to create a large family home to their own taste.
The entrance door opens into an enclosed porch with a further door leading into a generous hallway. Carpeted flooring flows throughout and there are two handy storage cupboards. On the right-hand side is a formal dining room which has plenty of space for even the largest of dining tables and features a bay window and fireplace with attractive brick surround. A door leads through to the kitchen, which is fitted with tiled flooring and a range of shaker style timber wall and base units. A quartz overlasy worktop runs over with a breakfast bar providing an informal place to eat. Integrated appliances include electric oven, microwave oven (both Miele), washing machine, dishwasher, hob and extractor. A freestanding fridge/freezer is also included in the sale.
There is a large reception room overlooking the back garden measuring over 20 feet in length. It is a lovely space to sit and relax and particularly bright thanks to triple aspect windows. A set of French doors lead out onto the garden patio and an electric fireplace provides a nice focal point to the room.
The master bedroom is particularly spacious and boasts fitted cupboards and a bay window that overlooks the front garden. Bedroom 2 is located at the back of the property and is a good sized double room with fitted storage. A conservatory leads off of this room and provides a lovely spot to enjoy the garden. Bedroom 3 can accommodate a double bed and also benefits from direct access onto the garden patio.
The family bathroom is accessed from the hallway. It has tiling to the floor and walls and features a salmon pink suite including curved corner bath with shower over, WC, bidet, towel radiator and basin with built in vanity storage. There is a separate shower room with a huge walk-in shower, WC and basin with further storage.
The property has mains gas central heating and the windows are double glazed throughout.
It is a good sized property as it is but for those looking to add space and value to this fantastic home, there is plenty of extension or development potential (subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents).
Outside
The house is approached across a large shingle driveway which provides off road parking for multiple vehicles. There is an attractive front garden mostly laid to lawn and interspersed with a selection of shrubs, flowering plants and neat hedging with a pathway leading to the entrance door. The drive continues down the right hand side of the bungalow leading to a further parking area and a detached double garage with electric up and over doors.
The west facing back garden is a real delight and is both secluded and generous in size. To the immediate rear of the property is a patio that provides an ideal spot for al fresco entertaining with a further raised patio that catches the sun in the morning. The formal garden is laid to lawn and offers plenty of space for children to play. There is a wide variety of planting and a number of specimen trees that provide colour and interest throughout the seasons.
An additional single garage offers handy outside storage space.
The total plot measures 0.34 acres.
Location
The property is situated on a much sought-after road in the highly desirable south side of Sevenoaks within walking distance of Sevenoaks High Street. The wide choice of social and recreational activities include the Stag Theatre and cinema, leisure centre with swimming pool and a fine selection of cafes and restaurants are all on the doorstep. Waitrose is 0.9 of a mile away with pavement along the whole route and the stunning Knole Park is a stone’s throw away with 1,000 acres of deer parkland and Knole House to explore.
Sevenoaks mainline station (fast rail services to London Bridge, Waterloo East, Charing Cross & Cannon Street in as little as 22 minutes) is about 1.4 miles away. The A21 at Morley's Roundabout is 2.7 miles away which leads to the motorway network providing easy access to Gatwick Airport, Channel Tunnel Terminus and the South Coast.
Schooling is excellent with many highly regarded primary, private and grammar schools nearby. The house is particularly well-placed for the internationally renowned Sevenoaks School, together with Solefields, New Beacon, Lady Boswell's and St Thomas Catholic School. There are also school buses to the grammar schools in Sevenoaks, Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells stopping close by and for younger families, the property is also walking distance to Oakley Nursery and Preschool.
There are top notch leisure facilities in the vicinity including golf at Knole and Wildernesse in Sevenoaks and Nizels in Hildenborough, which also has private swimming and fitness facilities. There is also sailing and open water swimming in Chipstead, cricket at The Vine as well as rugby and tennis at Hollybush.
Further places of interest within the local area include Chartwell (Winston Churchill’s former home), Ightham Mote, Hever Castle, Emmetts Garden, Leeds Castle, Penshurst Place and Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve to name just a few.
