A beautiful family home in excellent condition, set on a signature plot in a sought-after and ideally located development.
Originally built in 1999 by Crest Homes and on the site of a paper mill that was in operation from 1716 until 1960 this well set out and presented family home holds the prime location in the development with views directly out over the old mill pond.The house covers over 4000ft2 of well set-out living space and provides an excellent mix of living and entertaining space. The front door opens out towards the millpond and enters into a vaulted wooden-floored hallway with guest WC and storage cupboards. A study (the house benefits from good broadband speeds) sits alongside the reception hallway which in turn leads through into a fully equipped kitchen (with underfloor heating) with central island unit on the western side of the house. A large dual-aspect (with views over the millpond and with french doors to the garden) family drawing room with feature open fireplace and wooden floorboards sits at the north-eastern side of the house and a dining room (and butler's pantry indentation) with bi-fold doors out onto the courtyard garden links this room with the kitchen. An adjoining lofted snug/breakfast room (also with under floor heating) leads onto the utility room with further access to the garden as well as the garage; with ample space and an additional run of utility units. The staircase, leading up from the entrance hallway to the first floor, arrives at a large galleried landing, currently in use as a library and reading area and enjoying elevated views over the water. A well-lit master bedroom with excellent views over the millpond then sits across the width of the house together with bespoke crafted en suite shower room and adjoining dressing room. Two additional double bedrooms, both with their own en suite facilities (one dual-aspected at the front of the house) are also found on this floor. A further staircase then leads up to the second floor where two large additional double bedrooms are well set, both with views over the millpond and with a large shared bathroom. Ample additional loft storage is also provided on this floor. The property sits in approximately 0.8 acres of land and overlooks a large and well-tended millpond at the front of the house. The garden benefits from a south and west facing aspect, providing excellent sunlight for numerous seating and al fresco dining areas including a courtyard style patio at the rear of the house, a raised sun-deck together with well tended flower beds, mature trees and shrubs. Outside the property has excellent exterior space for parking.
The house is approximately 1 mile from the mainline station at Borough Green with its access to London Victoria (50 minutes) and more recent fast train service to London Bridge (37 mins) and Charing Cross (48 mins) whilst the station at Sevenoaks (London Bridge in 22 minutes) is only 7.5 miles away. Sevenoaks (7 miles) and Tonbridge (8 miles) provide additional shops, restaurants and amenities whilst the M20 (2 miles away) and M26 provide easy access to the M25, Gatwick and Heathrow airports, London and the wider UK motorway network. Ashford International and the channel ports then give great access to the continent. There are numerous good schools in the area including Ightham Primary School, Sevenoaks Prep, Solefield Prep, Granville School, Walthamstow Hall School for Girls together with excellent senior schools including Tonbridge, Sevenoaks School, The Judd School and numerous grammar options, all within easy travelling distance.
