House For Sale £999,950
Located at the end of a long driveway off a private road in St Mary's Platt this excellent detached family home was originally constructed in the 1970's as one of a pair of detached homes built for 2 brothers so they could live next to one another. The long approach driveway only serves these two properties (although they sit on very separate and private plots) making the home beautifully private yet also providing access to local amenities and communications links.
The current owners have remodelled and refurbished the house from top to bottom; rewiring, re-plumbing, replacing all the windows, upgrading the facade and replacing the roof on the utility and studio/office. Surrounding the house lies a garden designed by a Chelsea Flower Show gold medal winner and this both adds to the exterior ambience but also provides additional outside living areas perfectly in line with the style of the house.
The main entry to the house comes from the formal front entrance which opens out into a central hallway giving access to all the living areas of the house. A large sitting room runs the depth of the house on the left hand side whilst an easy flow from the hallway then leads clockwise to the dining room, guest WC and formal study respectively. The rear of the property has been opened up to create a light and bright kitchen/dining room with additional sliding doors leading out into the meadow garden and through to an exterior seating area. A second entrance to the house comes through a fully fitted utility room on the south east side which also gives access to a fantastic studio office workspace located in the houses's original garage; now re-purposed, insulated and re-roofed (with zinc lining) in line with the style of the rest of the house and might equally find great use as an additional sitting room or children's playroom.
A central staircase then leads to the first floor where four bedrooms are accessed from the landing. The master at the front of the house comes with an en suite bathroom and dressing room whilst the three remaining bedrooms share the family bathroom. Ample storage is found throughout the house along with a separate double garage.
Whilst the house has been refurbished to exacting standards the gardens add to the quality and peaceful feel of the property. The entire garden has been painstakingly hand designed from the meadow garden on the south east side of the house through to the more formal zones at the front of the house. A vegetable garden and greenhouse complete the garden ensemble.
The house is located in St Marys Platt with its thriving local community; with parish church, popular pub and local primary school. The house is also then within easy reach of Borough Green with its range of shops, amenities and train station with services to Victoria. Sevenoaks is then approximately 8 miles away to the west and provides a wider range of services together with a train line into London Bridge and Charing Cross. Both the M25 and M20 are easily accessible providing access to London and South East.
