House For Sale £1,375,000
PROPERTY
This wonderful family home is situated in the highly sought after and desirable Montreal Park, a development of detached properties positioned a short walk from Sevenoaks mainline station. The house was built in the late 1950s and has been extended over the years, offering plenty of internal space with a bright and airy feel thanks to its extensive array of large windows.
The front door leads via an enclosed entrance porch into a generous hallway with carpeted flooring. A further door leads to the inner hall where there is a downstairs WC and stairs to the first floor. On the right hand side is the dining room which offers a formal space to entertain with room for even the largest of dining tables. There is a contemporary fireplace with stone plinth and views over the front garden. The triple aspect sitting room is particularly spacious measuring over 22 feet in length. It also benefits from an open fireplace with a set of sliding doors that lead directly out onto the garden patio.
The kitchen / breakfast room is fitted with a range of wall and base units incorporating timber detailing with tiled splashback and a stylish granite overlay worktop. A matching breakfast table with booth seating provides an informal place to eat with the family. There is plenty of cupboard space and a pantry providing dry food storage. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, 4 ring gas hob, full height fridge and extractor hood. Also included is a free-standing dishwasher. The double garage can be accessed from an internal door leading from the kitchen. There is an electric up and over door and a handy utility area at the back, which provides an extra sink and houses a freestanding washing machine and freezer. A cosy family room provides further living space and is a wonderful spot for sitting and enjoying the garden all year round.
Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to six double bedrooms, a family shower room and a separate W.C. The master bedroom benefits from a full array of fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room, which is finished with neutral tiling and a modern corner shower with glass sliding screen. Several of the bedrooms contain wash hand basins and fitted wardrobes and the bedrooms facing the rear boast far reaching views out to the North Downs.
The family bathroom has been altered to include a large walk-in shower, with pedestal basin and heated towel rail and there is a separate W.C.
The property has mains gas central heating with the boiler located in the garage and an airing cupboard on the first-floor landing. The large loft is currently used for storage and is boarded with a light and a pull-down ladder.
The size of the property will more than satisfy most but for those looking to add space and value to this fantastic house there is plenty of extension potential (subject to obtaining any necessary planning permission).
OUTSIDE
The property is situated in a lovely residential setting with wide verges and cherry trees lining both sides of the road. A red tarmac driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leads to the integral double garage. There is a pretty front garden set behind a low ragstone wall with numerous flowering plants including a grape vine and neat hedging to the borders. Gated pathways run down both sides of the house providing direct access to the rear.
The delightful back garden is fully established and over 100 feet in length. It is well screened offering privacy with a pleasant green outlook beyond. There are well stocked beds filled with a wide variety of herbaceous shrubs, flowers and bushes with mature hedging and a number of specimen plants including some beautiful rhododendrons and azaleas. To the immediate rear of the house is a York stone patio, which provides an ideal spot for al fresco entertaining or to simply sit and enjoy the afternoon sunshine. There is a large area of lawn with plenty of space for children to play and a sunken seating area at the rear which was formerly a pond.
The overall plot measures approximately 0.21 acres and is almost completely flat, which is especially unusual for this part of town.
