House For Sale £650,000
This handsome Victorian, semi-detached house is set in the most sought-after road in Pembury. In the heart of the village and within walking distance of the village amenities as well as having miles of country walks through orchards, farmland and woodland on your doorstep. The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout and decorated in soft pastel tones making it feel very light and restful. The sitting room to the front of the house has a bay window and attractive fireplace with storage to either side. Across the rear of the house, is the kitchen/dining/family room with doors opening onto the patio and underfloor heating. Integrated appliances include a Neff electric oven and gas hob. Also on the ground floor, are the useful utility room and a shower room. Upstairs, the main bedroom is a generous double with bay window to the front and fitted wardrobes. There is another double with built-in wardrobe to the rear and the spacious family bathroom has a separate bath and shower. On the second floor, an L-shaped double room has a built-in wardrobe and under eaves storage as well as far reaching views to the rear and the 4th bedroom is currently used as a study but could become a child’s bedroom or a larger room if you were to install a dormer window as the neighbour has done.
Outside, there is driveway parking for 2 cars to the front, with an area of lawned garden which could be used to widen the driveway for more parking if required. To the side, is a timber bike garage which leads on to the boiler room where the gas heating system can be found. The rear garden is stunning, with a patio leading down to the large, lawned garden with mature shrubs, perennials and trees bordering to either side. At the far end, screened from view, is an area with raised vegetable beds and a large timber workshop and storage shed. Whilst the garden may not be south facing, it enjoys sunshine throughout the day and there is so much space for children to play and to entertain friends and family with summer barbecues. This super home really must be viewed in person to fully appreciate all it has to offer.
We love the character features of this attractive, period home, with timber sash windows, stripped wooden doors and pretty fireplaces. The location is fabulous, being a short walk to the primary school, village shop, bus stops and doctors surgery, yet also a short stroll to miles of walks through orchards, woodland and farmland so you really do get to enjoy the best of both worlds. We love the garden, it’s such a generous size so there is plenty of space for children to play or keen gardeners to really create something special, although we love it just the way it is for summer barbecues with friends. The rooms all feel so lovely and light and bright and are very well-proportioned. In particular, we love the sunny sitting room and the generous master bedroom upstairs.
