House For Sale £1,750,000
Available to view from Saturday 1st October, strictly by appointment via James Millard estate agents
offered to the market chain free - A most impressive family home coupled with flexible ancillary accommodation, occupying an ideal location to enjoy a semi-rural lifestyle, yet within easy reach of connections for London and superb schooling options to include the sought-after Kent Grammar Schools.
Dating to the early twentieth century and tastefully remodelled by the current owners to a high-quality finish, this unique proposition offers in excess of 3,000 square feet of versatile living space as well as benefitting from a generously sized south-facing garden and picturesque leafy outlook.
Externally the house enjoys a pleasantly secluded setting, screened from the lane via dense hedging, with a gravelled driveway providing plenty of parking, as well as access to an oak framed double garage.
Hever Golf Club, Hever Castle and the King Henry VIII pub are all within walking distance, with surrounding countryside providing wonderful opportunities for hiking, riding and cycling.
