A generous and attractive five bedroom family home in the pretty village of Rotherfield

Description

Found in the charming village of Rotherfield approximately 4.9 miles south of Tunbridge Wells, 47 Court Meadow is a sizable family home enjoying five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and flexible accommodation that can be arranged to suit.

Approached via the entrance hall, the light and airy sitting room benefits from both large sliding doors and French doors opening to the garden, together with a decorative fireplace adding charm to the property. The sitting room adjoins an additional reception room, which can be arranged to suit each individual, perhaps as a Home Office or a library. There is a further, sizeable reception room which also provides flexible use, ideal as a playroom or perhaps a study.

The kitchen was redesigned approximately five years ago, to create a stylish open-plan kitchen dining room fitted with shaker-style cabinetry topped with oak worktops, providing a good level of storage and preparation space. Integrated appliances include a Bosch dishwasher and gas hob, together with a Zanussi oven. There is an adjoining utility room with further cabinetry and space for both a washing machine and dryer. French doors open from the kitchen to the rear terrace and mature garden beyond.

Upstairs, there are five bedrooms in total, four of which are doubles and the two larger rooms also benefit from fitted wardrobes and en suite bath/shower rooms. There is a family bathroom with a separate WC, serving the remaining three bedrooms. There is a generous loft space ideal for storage and offering further potential, subject to all necessary and relevant planning consent.

Outside the mature garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a range of landscaped areas to enjoy including the rear terrace, which spans the width of the property. There is a secondary terrace with raised beds, providing a charming area to entertain in the warmer months.

To the front, the driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and leads to the double garage. There is an area of lawn to the front with evergreen hedging and a quaint pathway leading to the entrance door.
