Sitting behind a white picket fence, this circa 1950s three-bedroom, timber framed, detached bungalow, in the sought after rural village of Luddesdown, is offered with no forward chain and available to the market for the first time since 1987. The property occupies an established plot with driveway and garden to the front (facing directly onto farmland and fields) which leads to an integral garage.

Whilst the property has solar panels, it is in need of some modernisation. The property comprises entrance hall, sitting room, dining room with adjoining kitchen, three double bedrooms, family bathroom and separate wet room / shower room. The rear, mature, established garden has many plants and shrubs, a greenhouse and side pedestrian access.

This is an extremely rare opportunity to acquire this detached bungalow within the popular village of Luddesdown, near Meopham. It is a perfect location if you are looking for peace and quiet in a rural setting. The property could appeal to those specifically looking for single storey living, families or those looking to make their mark and modernise their dream home. It may appeal to those looking to escape London to a rural, yet well-connected, pocket of the Kent Countryside.

Rooms

Location
The village of Luddesdown offers some stunning Countryside walks across the Kentish downs and is very popular for dog walkers. There are 2 cosy, country pubs within walking distance, with a fantastic selection of amenities in the neighbouring village of Meopham. Nearby train stations include Sole Street and Meopham, which both offer a direct service to London. There are also bus routes from Meopham to Gravesend and Sevenoaks. Road links to the A2, M25, M2 and M20 are also fantastic. There are reputable schools within easy reach - both primary, and secondary. The very local and successful Silverhand Estate vineyard of 1,000 acres (404.7 hectares) produces around 4 to 5 million bottles per year.
