House For Sale £360,000
THE PROPERTY
This fantastic house was originally built in the 1960s and features an array of large windows making this a bright and airy home.
The front door opens into a small entrance porch with a storage cupboard on the right hand side. A further glazed door opens into a large reception space, measuring 16 feet in length. There are carpeted floors and stairs to the first floor at the back of the room. The kitchen, which is located at the rear of the property features a range of fitted wall and base units with a worktop running over. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and 4 ring gas hob with space for a washing machine, under-counter fridge and freezer. There is room for a dining table and a door leading out into the garden.
Upstairs the first floor landing leads to 2 bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is particularly spacious and benefits from fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 2 is a good-sized single room with views over the garden and another set of built-in cupboards. The family bathroom has tiled walls and features a panelled bath with shower attachment, pedestal basin and WC.
The property has mains gas central heating with a modern Worcester boiler and double glazed windows throughout. A number of the neighbouring properties have added single storey extensions off the back of the kitchen so there is some potential to add space and value (subject to obtaining the necessary planning consent).
OUTSIDE
There is a pretty front garden with a patch of lawn and mature shrubs. An area of hardstanding provides an off-road parking space for one vehicle and the property also benefits from a garage en-bloc, located just around the corner.
The delightful back garden is fully enclosed with timber fencing and benefits from a leafy outlook beyond. To the immediate rear of the house is a paved patio, ideal for al fresco entertaining. A series of planted beds run down both side boundaries, with an area of artificial grass removing any need for mowing. A set of steps leads down to a further patio area, which is a real sun trap at the rear of the garden.
LOCATION
The property is located on a cul de sac in the centre of Riverhead Village. There are numerous shops and amenities on the doorstep including a dentist, chemist, optician, barbers, butchers, a Tesco superstore and numerous other restaurants and food outlets in Riverhead itself. The property is also in close proximity to a number of parks and there is a footpath nearby to Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve.
Sevenoaks mainline station (fast rail services to London Bridge, Waterloo East, Charing Cross & Cannon Street in as little as 23 minutes) is 1.3 miles away and Dunton Green Station (direct rail services to London in as little as 42 minutes) is 0.9 miles away. Access to the M25 (junction 5) and A21 can be found at the Chevening interchange approximately 1.2 miles away which leads to the major motorway network providing easy access to Gatwick Airport, Channel Tunnel Terminus and the South Coast.
Sevenoaks High Street is approximately 1.8 miles away, where one can find a further range of shops and restaurants and recreational facilities including the leisure centre, the Stag theatre and cinema and the fantastic Knole Park with 1000 acres of deer parkland and Knole House to explore.
Schooling is excellent in the area with Riverhead Infants, Amherst Junior, Chevening and Sevenoaks Primary schools all within walking distance together with Knole Academy. Trinity School, Tunbridge Wells Grammar School Annexe for boys and the Weald of Kent Grammar Annexe are a short drive away and there are several top class private schools close by including the internationally renowned Sevenoaks School as well as further grammar schools for both boys and girls in Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells. For younger families, the property is a short walk to Squiggles Day Nursery and Bright Horizons Nursery both in Riverhead.
Further places of interest within the local area include Chartwell (Winston Churchill’s former home), Ightham Mote, Hever Castle, Emmetts Garden, Penshurst Place, Old Soar Manor and Lullingstone Roman Villa.
