4 bedroom detached house

Beautifully presented character property situated on a sought after private road.

Description

The Orchard is a striking character property, built in the 1920's and set within the desirable private Montreal Road, being superbly located for both Riverhead Infants and Amherst Juniors Schools, Sevenoaks station and High Street. The versatile, spacious and beautifully presented accommodation has been well-maintained by the current owners, creating ideal areas for entertaining and family living. Salient points include a stylish kitchen, luxurious bathroom suites, attractive fireplaces, a solid oak staircase with decorative balustrading, multi pane windows, solid oak internal doors and an established south-west facing garden, that provides both a high degree of privacy and a lovely backdrop to the property. Also of note is the superb garden office, together with the ample driveway parking and detached double garage.

A large entrance hall features fitted storage and leads to the triple aspect sitting room with an attractive fireplace and bressummer beam, an adjoining conservatory which serves as a dining room, with access to and views over the lovely rear garden and a double aspect family room with an open fireplace.

The superb double aspect open plan kitchen/breakfast room is a wonderful space for entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a range of stylish base and wall units with integral appliances and an island incorporating a breakfast bar. Two utility rooms provide further storage and a well-appointed cloak room completes the ground floor.

Arranged over the first floor are four bedrooms, two with a double aspect and curved bay windows. A stylish family bathroom with a claw foot bath and a separate shower and a second modern bathroom completes the accommodation.

There is planning for a loft conversion comprising a bedroom, dressing room and en suite (22/02325/HOUSE).

The south-west facing rear garden is a real feature, with a generous paved terrace incorporating a charming water feature, creating an ideal space for al fresco entertaining, complete with an outdoor kitchen. Steps leads to an expanse of level lawn, interspersed by fruit trees and borders planted with perennials and shrubs, with mature trees to the perimeter, all providing year round colour, interest and privacy.

Also within the garden is a tree house and a home office, which benefits from a well-appointed shower room and heating/air conditioning unit, with bi-fold doors to the covered seating area which also benefits from two fixed heaters to allow for year round outside entertainment space.
