Summerleaze is a circa 1920s chalet bungalow that has been extended and reconfigured by the current owners to make it this five bedroom detached family home that boasts detached garage with a versatile self-contained home office, which is located to the front of the main house and is ideal for those looking to work from home. The reconfiguration to the property, in our opinion, makes it an adaptable home for different family needs and includes the refurbishment of the existing kitchen and bathroom along with additional facilities. The versatile accommodation boasts various adaptable spaces with two bedrooms that are currently used as a study and family room to the ground floor, with a further three bedrooms to the first floor. Just two of the many spaces that are worthy of a mention to the ground floor are the kitchen/breakfast room, with adjoining utility room and the sitting room with a log burner, which makes for a lovely space to retreat to on winter evenings. Both the kitchen and sitting room lead out to the garden patio making a great entertaining space. Another space of note is the principal bedroom suite which has an ensuite shower room and walk-in wardrobe. The rear secluded garden boasts features of a large patio, pond and an additional decked seating area being a great outdoor entertaining space. This family home is located in the popular Kentish village of Otford and benefits from many local amenities including Otford main line station.

Seller Insight
Situated on the edge of the sought-after village of Otford is this extremely attractive five-bedroom family home that has been beautifully extended and remodelled by the current owners. The house used to belong to my parents, and it just so happened that around the time my husband and I were looking for a place to buy in Otford, they decided that they wanted to downsize, so everything just fell into place, says Karen.
When we came here eight years ago it was a really nice three-bedroom dormer bungalow, but in the past few years we’ve had the whole property redeveloped and it’s now totally different and absolutely stunning. We began by taking off the roof and stripping it back until it was just four walls, so we essentially started from scratch. We then extended up, adding three good-size bedrooms, the layout on the ground floor was completely rearranged, a gorgeous new kitchen and stylish bathrooms were installed, and elements such as the electrics and plumbing system (truncated)
