5 bedroom detached house for sale

Welcome to this stunning, contemporary family home that seamlessly blends modern design with eco-friendly features. The house's exterior boasts a striking combination of Coloured Render and Cedar cladding, creating a visually striking façade.
As you step inside, you are immediately greeted by the spacious entrance hall, bespoke floating steel staircase and polished concrete flooring throughout the ground floor accommodation.

Moving through to the open plan kitchen, dining and living area.

Beyond the kitchen, you will find the family snug/media room, another fantastic space to relax and unwind. Furthermore, the ground floor offers a downstairs bedroom and en suite shower room, Utility room, downstairs cloakroom and access to the integral garage via a hidden door underneath the staircase.

Heading upstairs, the contemporary, minimalist theme continues. The roof lights, equipped with eco-guard technology, flood the interior with natural light once more, while the glass balustrade and composite decking on the balcony off the landing offer a perfect spot to enjoy the surroundings. The first floor has been finished in Douglas Fir hardwood throughout.
The principal bedroom sets the tone for the accommodation upstairs, benefiting from a walk-in wardrobe space and an enormous en suite bathroom fitted by Bauhaus with fixtures and fittings designed and made by the likes of Bette & Geberit, Vado and Grohe with porcelain tiles and quartz bath surroundings.

The other three bedrooms offer full-height fitted wardrobes, providing ample storage space, and all share the family bathroom. The study features an equipped shelving unit and a wrap-around fitted desktop for a functional and stylish workspace.

Outside, the patio/decking area beautifully blends the internal and external space together via the sliding doors from the open-plan living area. The 7m x 3.5m swimming pool, which features linear porcelain copings and colour-changing lights and is heated by an air source heat pump, ensures year-round enjoyment.

The gardens have also been fully landscaped, perfectly blending the house to fit in with the countryside setting. The driveway has been finished with permeable grey gravel, allowing for sustainable drainage and ample parking for multiple cars.

The mechanical and electrical systems are state-of-the-art throughout, including an air source heat pump system, underfloor heating on the ground floor, radiators to the first floor, a 300-litre mega flow system for hot water and pressure, and a mechanical ventilation heat recovery system (MVHR). The drainage system is also eco-friendly, with a biodigester gravity discharge system.

The electrical features are equally impressive, with a Rako lighting system that can be controlled remotely via a mobile or tablet, Cat 6 cabling in each room, stainless steel switches and sockets throughout, a burglar alarm system, electric underfloor heating in the first-floor bathrooms, and battery-operated blinds with remotes in the upstairs bedrooms.

The property is ideally located for the active market town of West Malling (reputed to have been the site of the first recorded cricket match in Kent) with its wide range of shops, amenities and restaurants, together with its train station providing access to London Victoria and more recently a fast train service to London Bridge and Charing Cross.
