House For Sale £675,000
If you are looking for a non-estate detached bungalow on a generous plot (approximately 0.17 Acres) situated in a picturesque village, then look no further. Whilst the property is located in a semi-rural location with the North Downs Way just up the road, it still has great links to London, with Borough Green & Wrotham station just 7 mins (1.5 miles) away by car which has direct trains to London Victoria in as little as 46 minutes. Junction 2 of the M20 and 2a of the M26 are also nearby and both less than 5 minutes away by car. If you have children then you will appreciate being opposite a village primary school that was rated as outstanding at last inspection and 4 minutes drive from a secondary school that was rated good with outstanding management at the last inspection by Ofsted. The property itself has been owned by one family since it was built in the mid-'80s and has recently undergone an extensive programme of modernisation including new windows, a new German (Nobilia) kitchen with granite worktops and two new bathrooms, as well as some new carpets and fresh decor. The semi-open plan living-dining room is flooded with light and opens onto the garden which makes it a great sociable room for summer entertaining. It also has a double-sided exposed brick fireplace so would be ideal for a log burner to keep you warm after those long winter walks in the surrounding countryside. There are three double sized 3 bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room ideal for a family or if you have guests over. We expect this no chain home to generate a lot of interest so would urge you to view early to avoid disappointment.
Little Farthings is located in the picturesque village of Wrotham at the foot of the North Downs. The historic village boasts a village shop, Ofsted outstanding primary school, Ofsted good secondary school and a recreation ground with a children's play area complete with its own children's castle! There is a cricket ground, 13th-century church, historic society, bowls club, netball, football, and walking football clubs, and even a steam rally. After all that activity, you can enjoy a cold drink and a bite to eat in either The George and Dragon, The Rose and Crown, or the 14th Century Bull Hotel. The nearby village of Borough Green is just over a mile away and has a number of shops, places to eat and drink, as well as a train station with direct services to London Victoria in as little as 46 minutes. Sevenoaks town centre with its comprehensive shopping, education & leisure facilities and mainline station (with fast services to London) is just under 8 miles away.
Owners Remarks:
Built appropriately 35 years ago, the house was purchased off-plan and has remained within the same family since, now coming on the open market for the first time.
Having lived in Wrotham for over a decade, I can honestly say all my neighbours have become friends supporting and helping each other when needed.
Should you wish to embrace village life, there is always something going on, yoga classes, bonfire night, music festival, to mention a few, as well as having St Georges Primary School, two pubs and a hotel in the village - it definitely has a lot to offer! The beautiful countryside here in Wrotham, on the North Downs way and surrounding villages is also great for exploring.
The house is full of charm and I hope whoever buys it will love it as much as my parents and I have.
