The house has been updated by the current owners including a kitchen/dining room extension which makes the most of the view and south facing garden and combines the traditional Kent weather-board style with a modern and contemporary interior. The house has ample space for parking together with a single garage in front of the house and is entered through a hallway with excellent storage options and the stairs to the first floor. The main living room is located in the centre of the house and benefits from wonderful countryside views and opens up through french doors out onto the paved terrace, perfectly set for al fresco dining and entertaining. A door on the southern side links to a large conservatory; ideal for entertaining, a gym or children's playroom/craft room.
On the other side of the entrance hallway is located a family snug/television room and a corridor leading to the light and bright kitchen/dining room. with central island and modern appliances, the kitchen provides both wonderful views but also easy access out to the garden and the paved terrace. A utility room and guest WC complete the ensemble. On the first floor the house provides a principal suite with shower room at the north end of the house together with three additional double bedrooms and a family bathroom. All the rooms have ample storage and the house contains further storage in the loft.
Separate to the main house but easily accessible, sits the annex; made up of a double bedroom, living room (which could easily be turned into a kitchen/diner) and a mezzanine storage/children's play area. recently updated the annex would make a perfect office (as it is in use as now), family living space or additional overflow accommodation.
The garden faces east/south-east and is centred around its wonderful paved terrace, linking the main house with the annex. Perfect for entertaining the terrace links to the swimming pool (with cover and stone surround). The garden then completes the ensemble.

Schools in immediate area include The New Beacon, Sevenoaks School (senior and Prep) Walthamstow Hall School for Girls and Solefields as well as excellent Grammar schools including Judd, Skinners, Weald of Kent Girls and Tunbridge Wells Grammar School (with annex in Sevenoaks). The area includes many sporting and leisure facilities including a golf course and health club at Nizels together with well respected golf courses at Wildernesse and Knole Park.
