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 1958 and has been extended over the years, offering plenty of internal space with a bright and airy feel thanks to its south-easterly orientation.

The front door leads via an enclosed entrance porch into a generous hallway with carpeted flooring and stairs to the first floor to the right hand side. To the left-hand side is the sitting room, which features an open fireplace with tiled surround and a large window overlooking the front of the property. There is a further family room that has been used for many years as a billiards room with a further extension off the back, which offers additional reception space. A set of sliding doors lead out to the wonderful conservatory, which provides a lovely spot to enjoy the garden all year around.

The kitchen is ideal for family life with space for a breakfast table. There is a range of fitted wall and base cupboards with stylish curved end units, a work top over and tiled splashback. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, 4 ring electric hob and extractor with a freestanding dishwasher and under-counter fridge also included in the sale. Adjoining the kitchen is a handy utility room, which has a door leading out onto the garden patio and an internal door providing direct access into the garage. There is an additional sink and also included in the sale is a washing machine, tumble dryer, fridge and freezer. The original integral garage has been converted into a dining room offering a formal space to entertain and there is a downstairs WC, which completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to five bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC. The master bedroom is particularly spacious and features a large array of fitted wardrobes and cupboards. Bedroom 2 looks out over the garden and also benefits from lots of fitted cupboards and a wash hand basin. Bedroom 3 can accommodate a double bed and the remaining bedrooms are single rooms. The family bathroom is finished with white tiling including floral detailing and is fitted with a black suite including bath, wall mounted basin and towel radiator. There is a separate WC and further storage cupboards on the landing.

The property has double glazing throughout and mains gas central heating with a boiler located in the utility room. 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 a significant amount 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 flat tarmac driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and leads to the attached garage. There is a lawned front garden set behind a low ragstone wall with a bed of flowering plants and hedging to the borders. A covered storage area on the left hand side has previously been used as a car port and leads down the side of the property to the rear garden.

The delightful back garden is south east facing and is almost all flat. It measures 140 feet in length and is fully enclosed by timber fencing and neat hedging. There are well stocked beds filled with a wide variety of herbaceous shrubs, flowers and bushes with a raised bed for growing your own herbs or vegetables. To the immediate rear of the house is a paved patio, which provides an ideal spot for al fresco entertaining or to simply sit and enjoy the sunshine. A huge area of lawn offers plenty of space for children to play with a winding path that leads to a further paved area at the rear. A timber summer house and shed provide useful outdoor storage.

The overall plot measures approximately 0.21 acres.
