5 bedroom detached house

Rare to market and occupying a substantial plot (Approx 1.5 acres TBV*) in the sought after village of Ash nr Sevenoaks, is this well-presented, four/five bedroom, chalet-style home.

Perfect for large, growing or even multi-generational families, the detached, extended home offers versatile accommodation.

The property is set back from Billet Hill itself and is accessible via a large, gravelled driveway which is on a steady upward gradient. This driveway is large enough to accommodate 6-8 vehicles and there is a large double garage, perfect for additional off-road parking, or storage. Again subject to the necessary permissions, this could be converted to form habitable accommodation or a self-contained Annex. There is also a large lawned section to the front, with some well planted beds and mature trees to the boundary.

To the ground floor, the property offers a welcoming entrance hall with stairs-left, to the first floor. To the left of the home, there is a spacious through kitchen-diner, with a country-style finish and a separate utility room with door to garden, for convenience.

Either side of the ground floor hallway are a ground floor fifth bedroom and a study. The fifth bedroom is a double, perfect for an elderly relative, or potentially for use as a guest bedroom / children’s play room. The study is spacious with doors to the rear garden, and could also be used as a more formal dining room.

The feature room to the ground floor is the main living room. This space measures over 20x16 ft and boasts tonnes of natural light, as well as a feature fireplace and another door to the rear garden. There are lovely views from the front windows of this room, over a courtyard/patio space, the front garden, and the neighbouring mature gardens.

Completing the accommodation on the ground floor and for more convenience is a downstairs cloakroom with toilet and wash/hand basin.

To the first floor, there are two front chalet-style dormers and a large square dormer to the rear, which have helped to create a total of four bedrooms. The master is of generous proportions with double aspect, a dressing room and an en-suite shower, plus the benefit of eaves storage access. Bedroom two is another good sized double, whilst bedrooms three and four are smaller singles, with restricted ceiling heights in places. A modernised family bathroom, featuring shower-above-bath, toilet and wash-hand basin, completes the accommodation on this floor.

Externally, the property offers a mature and established, private rear garden, with a beautiful area of Woodland to the rear. Again on a steady upward elevation, the garden features two patio areas, one of which is raised and adjacent to a fish-pond. There is a separate area of hard-standing, on which there is perfect potential for a home-office or outbuilding/gym/bar/office. Further benefits include a storage shed and rear access to the large, double garage.

The largest proportion of the “main” garden space is then laid-to-lawn. Via steps to the rear of the lawned area, you enter the Woodland, within which the grounds are flooded with wild-flower, with some pathways that are great for those with pets or children, to roam and play. Again, either side of the boundary, there are mature trees and shrubs which help add to the privacy on offer.

The property is serviced by an oil boiler, and oil central heating, plus mains drainage.

The property is well located for a number of reputable primary and secondary schools, and there are fantastic road links to the M26, M25, M20, M2 and A2 – meaning great links to London and its airports.

There are train links from Longfield, Swanley and Borough Green & Wrotham, all of which offer frequent, direct services to London Victoria, with Swanley and Borough Green also offering a line to London Bridge and London Charing Cross. For those wanting or needing a High speed link, Ebbsfleet International is approximately 20 minutes by car.
