Description
The spacious, open-plan kitchen-living-dining arrangement is definitely the hub of the house and one of the showpieces of this home, with bespoke fully fitted Krieder German kitchen and integrated appliances to include fridge, freezer, dishwasher, oven and sink with a Quooker hot tap. The ceramic hob with integrated extractor is positioned in the large island which has space for four kitchen stools. This living space is the perfect space to entertain and to socialise, with a bespoke fitted media wall and a gas fireplace with marble surround/ cladding. Completing the ground floor is a spacious utility room and a downstairs WC which is completely kitted out with Lusso Stone fixtures and fittings.
On approaching the first floor from the entrance hall, the property offers three double bedrooms and a large built in storage cupboard. The master suite spans the width of the property, complete with floor-to-ceiling glass windows, a reading or “chill” area which currently accommodates 2 armchairs, a huge dressing room with Velux window and a stylish en-suite bathroom. This features separate bath and shower, wall-hung toilet and wash-hand basin, again, with all sanitary ware via Lusso Stone. Further touches include a heated towel rail, a Velux window/skylight and a tiled wall-recess with lighting for storage.
Bedrooms two and three are again spacious doubles, both large enough to accommodate freestanding wardrobes and drawers, as well as king sized beds. These rooms offer further storage and dressing areas utilising a void behind the beds/headboards. A family bathroom completes the accommodation to the first floor, finished to the exacting high specification of the master en-suite to include a bath, walk-in shower, wall-hung toilet, sink, heated towel rail, and two Velux skylights/windows.
Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, not only allow for an abundance of natural light to the living-dining space but also provide access to the beautifully landscaped, low-maintenance rear garden. The space features a large patio area with a bespoke solid metal gazebo matching the window frames, offering a space to sit and enjoy the garden. The final addition to this build project is a garden room with bi-folding doors and storage cupboard, currently used for a therapy room. The space could easily be used as a home-gym or office as suitable alternatives.
Returning to the specification of this home, the detailing is endless including the downstairs where the property offers stunning Herringbone LVT flooring which extends to the majority of the living space and kitchen with underfloor heating throughout. There are Rhino black aluminium exterior windows/doors, modern black fire safety rated internal doors with brushed chrome door handles, Heos Speaker system along with an alarm and CCTV system.
Located in its quiet leafy setting adjacent to woodland this property is ideal for those that enjoy walking as you can step out of your boundary and have immediate access from this haven to some beautiful countryside on your doorstep, yet the benefit of local amenities at the end of the cul-de-sac, this true gem of a home is situated in its own oasis and is offered to market with the rare benefit of vacant possession.
The home is within walking distance to parades of shops at both Cherry Trees and at the Junction of Ash/Church Road. It is also within easy reach of Longfield Village, where you’ll find a Waitrose supermarket and the closest train station, offering regular, direct services to London Victoria, Bromley south and the Kent Coast. The nearby parades in Hartley offer convenience stores to include a Co-Op, a Premier, an off-licence and the village Post Office, whilst the village Country Club is also a popular option.
Ebbsfleet International station provides access to Stratford International and St Pancras International in 11 and 21 minutes, respectively - with this station just under 7 miles and approximately 15 minutes by car.
A number of reputable primary schools are within easy reach, to include Our Lady of Hartley and Hartley Primary Academy, as well as Steep Hill private school, in Fawkham. The nearby bus stops also provide school bus services to Dartford and Gravesend Grammar schools, whilst Sevenoaks is an alternative option for those who don’t mind a slightly longer school drop off/pick up!
