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 has been extended by the current owner, offering plenty of internal space with a bright and airy feel thanks to its extensive array of large windows and south facing aspect.
The front door leads via an enclosed entrance porch into a particularly spacious hallway with carpeted flooring and stairs to the first floor on the left. To the right-hand side is the sitting room, which features an open fireplace with attractive brick surround, providing a nice focal point to the room. An extension at the back has huge windows providing a panoramic view over the garden with two doors that lead directly outside. The dining room offers a formal space to entertain with room for even the largest of dining tables and a serving hatch to the kitchen. The kitchen / breakfast room is ideal for modern family life and has plenty of cupboard space. There is a range of fitted wall and base units with a work top over and tiled splashback. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, 4 ring gas hob and extractor fan. A downstairs W.C. completes the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, the first-floor layout is particularly appealing with five bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a separate W.C. The master bedroom suite is double aspect and particularly spacious. There are fitted wardrobes and a large ensuite bathroom, which is finished with tiled walls and vinyl flooring. There is a bath with shower attachment, pedestal basin, WC and a large frosted window. Bedrooms two, three and four are good sized double rooms looking out over the back garden. Bedroom 5 is a single room, which would make an excellent study. The family bathroom has a bath and pedestal basin and there is a separate W.C.
The property has double glazing and mains gas central heating. The loft is currently used for storage and is part-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 tarmac driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the integral double garage. There is a pretty front garden mostly laid to lawn with numerous flowering plants and shrubs, set behind a low ragstone wall. Gated pathways run down both sides of the house providing direct access to the rear.
The delightful back garden is south facing and over 200 feet in length. The plot itself slopes downwards at the rear and has been landscaped with two large areas of flat lawn offering plenty of space for children to play. To the immediate rear of the house is a pathway with two sets of steps that lead down into the main garden. There are well stocked beds filled with a wide variety of herbaceous shrubs, flowers and bushes with mature hedging and a number of specimen trees.
The overall plot measures approximately 0.39 acres.
