If you are looking for a detached home in a semi-rural location with views over picturesque countryside then look no further. The property was originally built as a single storey bungalow but now benefits from a full two storey extension to the rear and it is felt there may be potential to extend further subject to the usual consents. The accommodation has been extensively modernised in recent years and offers light, airy and spacious rooms - many of which enjoy lovely rural vistas. The large welcoming entrance hall leads to all the ground floor rooms, including the ground floor bedroom and shower room and the living room with its feature log burner and patio doors opening to the garden, making this a great room to enjoy all year round. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, one of which has a walk-in wardrobe or study as well as a bathroom. The garden is neatly landscaped and faces south so is ideal for sun worshippers. There is a detached garage behind double gates that would be ideal to house your cherished vehicle and a driveway for 2 cars to the front with scope to create further parking if needed. We think this beautifully situated home will suit young families and typical bungalow buyers alike and expect it to be popular, so would urge you to view early to avoid disappointment.

The property is situated in an elevated, semi-rural location with far-reaching panoramic views of the North Downs. The surrounding countryside is ideal for hiking, cycling, and horse riding. The Pepper Box Inn; a charming 16th century pub and restaurant with inglenook fireplaces and beams offers real ales and a great menu, is just 0.3 miles away. Lenham village is around 3 miles away and is renowned for its well-preserved medieval architecture and quaint village square that is home to a number of shops, pubs, and restaurants, as well as a local market that takes place every second Sunday of the month. Leeds castle is around 4 miles away and is said to be the 'loveliest castle in the world.' It plays host to a variety of events throughout the year, including concerts, festivals, and seasonal celebrations, and with an annual pass you could enjoy the gardens, grounds, maze and incredible playground all year round. Maidstone, the county town of Kent is just under 9 miles away (17 minutes) and offers fantastic options for shopping, nightlife and of course secondary schooling. Ulcome Primary School is a short 4 minute drive away and only has around 60 pupils and was rated good by Ofsted at the last inspection, while the renowned independent school for pupils aged from 3-18 years old is around 9 minutes away by car. For the budding golfer, Ridge Golf Club is just a 5 minute drive away. There are numerous local train stations with services to London Victoria in around an hour and a half or high-speed services are available from Ebbsfleet International which is around half an hour away by car (25 miles) to St Pancras in as little as 18 minutes.

Owners Remarks: Having purchased this property in 1993, we have enjoyed 30 happy years living in Fairbourne Heath, with the beautiful surrounding countryside and a very friendly neighbourhood who have always been happy to look out for each other. Regrettably health issues are forcing us to relocate closer to our nearest dialysis unit. It will be with great sadness that we have to leave this lovely home and location.
