About this property
No Chain
Approximately 3/4 of an acre plot
South Facing Garden
Fantastic Scope & Potential
Very Generous Parking
Adjacent to The Woodlands Trust
Close to Bearsted Village Green
Fabulous opportunity to develop this stunning family home occupying one of the most sought after plots in the area. Inclined to the south, elevated with far reaching views to the west. Flanked by mature trees and shrubs to the north, significant work has been undertaken to open up the gardens to the south which has created light within the property. There is a huge drive with ample parking. Permission has been gained for a substantial annexe along with a 2 storey extension and single storey extension (plans available). The design of the property features not only an eyebrow window but unusually large pictures windows, thereby fully engaging with the surrounding open vistas. The current accommodation has enormous potential to extend and provides a great opportunity for prospective buyers to create their forever home.
