House For Sale £1,275,000
This deceptively spacious detached home with an impressive garden is situated in a prime residential area within the catchment of the sought-after Riverhead, Amherst and Chevening schools. The property dates originally from the 1950s and has been extensively improved and extended into a generously proportioned two-storey residence with versatile living space. The house has been well maintained and is well presented, with neutral interiors offering a good backdrop for further personalisation by the incoming purchaser. The house further benefits from a garage, covered garden storage and off-street parking.
The layout has good flow and is well suited to family life, with three good-size reception rooms as well as a kitchen with space for a breakfast table. On the ground floor, the spacious entrance hall with beautiful parquet flooring is central to the accommodation and leads to a large sitting room with wood-burning stove, family room with adjoining utility room, cloakroom with WC, the kitchen and a dining room which is currently used as a music room. Upstairs there are four good-size double bedrooms, two with eaves storage, and a family bathroom. There is further extension potential to the rear and side subject to the necessary planning consents and a buyer’s own investigations.
Outside
The house is fronted by an area of lawn bisected by a pedestrian path, with a block-paved driveway to the side leading up to a set of double gates which open to a covered area, detached garage and workshop/storage space.
The generous rear garden is a good size (0.43 acres) and features a mostly level lawn enclosed by shrub borders and mature trees, affording a high degree of privacy. The lower section of garden features lawn, raised vegetable beds, a further shed and tree house. A large patio has space for outside furniture and there is also a summerhouse, greenhouse and garden shed.
Situation
Chipstead Park is superbly located within reach of the popular Riverhead Infants, Amherst Juniors and Chevening Primary School. The amenities of Riverhead village include a chemist, butcher, pub, church, library and salon, as well as a choice of convenience stores. Chipstead is a popular village, with two public houses and a sailing club at Chipstead Lakes. A wider variety of shops and services can be found in Sevenoaks (2.2 miles) where there is also a station (1.7 miles) with fast commuter services to London Bridge, Charing Cross and Cannon Street. There are various educational establishments in both the state and private sector, including Knole Academy, Weald of Kent and Tunbridge Wells Grammar annexes, Walthamstow Hall and Russell House.
