Georgian family home with Kentish weatherboard, combining countryside calm with excellent London connectivity
Description
This stunning four bedroom semi detached Georgian cottage is stylishly presented throughout, with impressive features including refurbished original wooden flooring, feature brick walls, and a contemporary open-plan kitchen. The property dates back to the early 1800s and is unique in that it was originally a chapel and later part of a village pub, from which it gets its name. Many period features remain, with the house having been renovated entirely by our client, and are prevalent throughout the house including open feature fireplace and, to the front, a classic Kentish weatherboard frontage.
The property is well proportioned throughout, making it an ideal family home, with a versatile layout including four bedrooms and two reception rooms, together with the delightful kitchen/dining room.
The large open-plan kitchen features bi-folding doors that open directly onto the rear garden and is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, a range of integrated appliances, and a Rangemaster oven. The kitchen is well zoned, the current clients have created a cosy seating area in front of the open fire, in addition to a more formal dining area to the rear of the kitchen. A practical utility room has also been added, alongside a ground floor WC.
The large sitting room is of particular note, boasting unique windows to the front that maximize the south facing aspect of the room, creating a light, bright family space.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is of particular note with a generously sized room and en suite bathroom, along with lovely views over the garden and Bedgebury. There are three further bedrooms, two of which are doubles, served by the family shower room. The fourth of which offers flexibility as a study/nursery.
The garden to the rear enjoys far-reaching views across the neighbouring fields and landscape. It is mainly laid to lawn, with a range of mature trees and shrubs providing a high level of privacy.
The property has driveway parking for up to three cars.
