This beautiful house, with touches of Edwardian charm, is newer
than it looks as it was built in the 1930s, showcasing the
high-quality craftsmanship of that era.
Screened from the road by high mature planting, double gates on
both sides of the property open onto wide driveways, with a
detached double garage sat neatly to the side.
The house sits proudly within its landscaped gardens occupying an
idyllic semi-rural position surrounded by rolling Kent countryside.
However, it enjoys the best of both worlds as it is a stone`s throw
from easy access to the M25, fast rail connections to central
London and first-class schools.
Lush green gardens wrap around the property with manicured lawns
gently sloping down to meet the open farmland at the front,
delivering spectacular unspoilt views.
The house itself offers space and light in abundance with a light
filled interior that flows beautifully to deliver family and
entertaining space in equal measure.
A part glazed door welcomes you into the porch, with plenty of
space for coats and shoes, and a useful storage cupboard to the
side.
Decorative internal glazing with stained glass welcomes you into
the beautiful entrance hallway, its oak panelled staircase sweeping
upwards adding a touch of glamour.
Warm English oak flooring seamlessly links the reception rooms
running of it at every angle. There is a useful guest cloakroom and
a bathroom with a shower over the wooden panel enclosed bath with
sliding shower screens.
First on the right is the elegant drawing room, its dual aspect
windows flooding the space with light. The square bay window to the
front delivers glorious garden views and the oak framed fireplace
adds character and warmth to the room, which has ample space for
large family sofas.
Behind is the large home office with its bay window enabling you to
work in a light and airy space. It is a versatile space and could
easily be used as a children`s playroom.
Returning to the hallway, the dining room is opposite and to the
front. It also benefits from a square bay window bringing in garden
views for charming dining experiences. There is a useful serving
hatch into the breakfast room behind.
The breakfast room, conveniently placed next to the kitchen, is a
wonderfully informal dining space. An Aga sits recessed under a
mantlepiece and two impressive dresser units flank the walls
offering storage and decorative display options.
Beyond, the kitchen has oak cabinetry that wraps around the kitchen
separating the integrated appliances and offering lots of storage
and food preparation space. A sink sits under one of the windows
and there is a lobby to the back with room for an additional
appliance and access into the garden.
Double glazed doors open into an impressively large utility room
which also has base level wooden cabinetry, space and plumbing for
appliances, additional sinks ideal for muddy paws and boots and
garden access. This vast space is ripe for a renovation project
that could potentially reconfigure the kitchen space too.
Accessed from its own courtyard to the side is the conservatory
with wrap around windows and a glazed roof flooding the room with
light. It is the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining in and
its own set of double glazed doors open onto the terrace and garden
beyond.
Climbing the stairs to the first floor you reach the bright
landing, its windows delivering striking unspoilt views.
There is a second bathroom with a shower over the bath, a separate
cloakroom and four generous double bedrooms.
The bedrooms are graciously proportioned, with high ceilings,
feature fireplaces and large windows offering beautiful views of
the garden enabling you to lie in bed and watch the changing
seasons in comfort.
Outside spacious gardens of approximately 1.1 acres surround the
house, safely self-contained for pets and children. At the front of
the house is a paved terrace with three sets of steps leading you
through different sections of the beautiful rear garden with its
unrivalled views.
Manicured lawns are edged by mature stocked flower beds briming
with colour and variety, while iron rail fencing at the perimeters
enable you to have unspoilt open farmland views. A garden pavilion
and a summer house offer perfect vantage points for tranquil
seating to enjoy the scenery while a section of protected woodland
to the west has a canopy of trees, including the three oaks, and
provides a perfect hideaway and adventure playground for kids to
make childhood memories. There are two greenhouses, a wooden shed
and plenty of terracing for alfresco dining. A variety of mature
high greenery screens and surrounds the property to the front and
side perimeters.
The detached double garage, with a separate garden store at the
rear, has an up and over door and pedestrian doors, with ample
off-road parking to the rear.
This wonderful home brimming with character, period features and
striking unspoilt country views has the added advantage of the
opportunity for you to create your own vision and add value in the
future. A must see!

through it. Southborough`s location allows easy access to the A21
which leads to the M25.
Southborough Common, situated near to the property, is a
conservation area where cricket has been played for more than 200
years. Southborough Cricket Club is still very much a vibrant
community club.
If you are a runner or casual walker, the woodland area of the
