House For Sale £2,250,000
With the core of the property dating back to the 1800's this elegant family home provides a wonderful combination of living and entertaining space. Centred around a private courtyard leading directly onto the expansive landscaped gardens the home provides flexible living throughout and includes five bedrooms and an excellent range of living space.
The house is approached at the end of a private road ideally placed for the shops, amenities and transport links that Chislehurst possesses and gives both off-street parking and access to a double (end to end) garage on the right hand side of the house. An entrance hallway brings you into the central living room with french doors out onto the property's paved courtyard. A second reception room; equally at home as a formal living room or family snug leads off the living room towards a self-contained pair of bedrooms, both with en suite shower rooms and perfect as use for siblings, guests or extended family members. Additional eaves storage is found on both sides. A double garage (end to end) with ample additional space is also found at this end of the house.
A central staircase leads to the expansive first floor in the heart of the house; a large principle suite takes up much of the floor with expanses of storage and a large dressing room together with a beautifully appointed wet-room with porthole window. An additional double bedroom is found on this floor along with a family bathroom with stand-alone clawfoot bath tub and separate shower.
On the western side of the house a light and bright kitchen adjoins the living room whilst also providing access out onto the terrace. Built by Smallbone of Devizes and fitted with Miele appliances, granite worktops, Gaggenau grill and ample bespoke storage units the kitchen provides both an “eat-in” provision together with access to a south facing dining room, in part of the oldest pieces of the house and with access to an exterior south facing courtyard. A guest WC/shower room for bedroom 5 sits just off the kitchen whilst a spiral staircase leads up to a fifth bedroom, again with a south facing aspect.
On the lower ground floor of the house is found a music room (fully sound proofed) which would also fulfil excellent use as a cinema room, work room or gym. A sizeable utility room, additional shower room and further store room with garden access (perfect for use as a wine cellar) then complete the ensemble.
At the rear of the house sits an exceptionally private garden and a large terrace area protected by the wings of the property. The garden and is not overlooked and is mainly laid to lawn together with some excellent landscaped plantings which provide some excellent colour to the property.
The house is ideally located on a private road whilst being within less than half a mile from both the popular Royal Parade and the mainline train station. The open spaces and woodland trails of St. Pauls Cray Common are a short walk away whilst the nearby A20 links into central London and the M25, and with it easy access to Gatwick Airport, the Channel ports and the rest of the UK motorway network. The area provides a host of excellent schools at all ages, Academy through to Independent.
