Location, style, elegance

If the French countryside aesthetic appeals to your sense of style, then this impressive family home is just what you are looking for. A formal garden with manicured hedges and artistically placed mandarin trees welcomes guests to your front door, while a private walled backyard is reserved for family time and summer gatherings.

Inside, sunlight pours in through tall Georgian-styled windows to warm and light up every room. The central hall and staircase are grand yet welcoming and the decor is neutral so you can add your own touches of colour. Downstairs you will find the comfortable living areas, comprising the family lounge and formal dining both with access through French doors to the rear garden, and a family dining room separated from the well-appointed kitchen by a breakfast bar. There is a cupboard laundry off the family dining room, and the kitchen has an entire wall of storage cupboards and pantries. There is also a small front office or guest room, internal access to the double garage, and a separate toilet on this level.

Up the sweeping staircase you have the choice of taking a left and heading out to the private, sun-drenched, rooftop entertaining area, or taking a right to the family bedrooms. The master bedroom has a built-in double wardrobe and en suite, and separate access to the sunroof. The other three double bedrooms all have built-in wardrobes and plentiful natural light. The family bathroom has a shower over bath, two heated towel rails and new flooring. There is also an additional bedroom or office on this level, making this home ideal for those who work from home, or AirBnB hosts.

Kent central heating with vents in strategic places will keep your family warm in winter, and the backyard barbecue area will entertain them in summer.
