An immaculately presented four bedroom period oast with home office, garaging and delightful gardens with pond.

Description

Sanders Oast is a charming twin oast conversion, which is believed to date from the late 19th century and was converted in 2002. Approached via electric double gates, the house sits amidst attractive, well screened gardens totalling 0.73 of an acre, with level lawns, a pond, ample parking and a double garage with electric car charging point.

The internal accommodation retains much of the character of the original building with exposed beams and brickwork and comprises; a triple aspect sitting room with wood burning stove and French doors to the garden, a study also with direct garden access, a roundel dining room, a lovely roundel kitchen fitted by Potts of Maidstone and having under floor heating. Neff appliances include an induction hob with recessed extractor, a wall mounted oven, microwave and warming drawer and integral dishwasher. In addition there is an American-style fridge/freezer, a waste disposal, wine cooler and a very cleverly concealed TV.

Stairs lead up from the entrance hall to a most attractive galleried landing which is vaulted to the pitch. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en suite shower room to the principal roundel bedroom.

This lovely oast conversion with its brick elevations enhanced by mature wisteria, benefits from most attractive gardens with established evergreen hedging to the perimeter. To the front there is a block paved drive providing ample parking, a pathway leads around the house to a generous paved terrace and there is an excellent home office with power, light and Cat 5e internet cabling. On the other side of the pond there is a garden shed and composting area.
