A former telephone exchange, built in the 1930s and converted into a spacious single storey dwelling with generously proportioned accommodation in 1983. Buzby is set within a good size plot which offers excellent potential to extend (subject to the necessary consents) with a good degree of privacy, and is located within the heart of this bustling village, with its numerous amenities including shops, restaurants, a primary school and a mainline station.
A UPVC double glazed front door opens into an entrance hall, with an airing cupboard and access to the loft. The entrance hall leads to three bedrooms at one end of the house, two of which are good size double rooms, whilst one is a comfortable single.
The family bathroom is also accessed from the entrance hall and has a modern white suite, including a low level WC, a pedestal mounted sink and a bath with a shower over it.
At the opposite end of the house, you will find a vast open plan living space. This comprises a lovely dual aspect sitting area with pleasant views over the gardens and a cosy exposed brick fireplace with an inset wood burner style gas fire. The kitchen area has been fitted with a selection of modern wall and floor units, set around granite effect rolled top work surfaces, ceramic tiling and a breakfast bar.
Finally completing the accommodation, there is a useful utility room which houses the central heating boiler, along with a butler sink and plumbing for the washing machine. This room is accessed externally via the garden.
OUTSIDE:
Buzby is set within a generous and secluded plot which measures approximately 109 ft x 51 ft (max and is approached via a tarmac driveway, which provides parking for at least three cars. The gardens wrap along the length of the bungalow and also extend around the side as well, with a useful walkway continuing along the rear of the bungalow. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, with tall, mature hedging along the borders, affording an excellent degree of privacy from Frognal Gardens. There are several well stocked flowerbeds, a patio area and a summer house.
SITUATION:
Buzby enjoys a secluded, yet particularly convenient location, situated in the heart of the popular village of Teynham, near Faversham.
The bustling village of Teynham benefits from numerous local shops, including a supermarket, two mini food stores, several pubs, a restaurant, a library, a chemist, a medical practice, a vet, two hair-dressers and a primary school.
The village has a mainline train station which offers regular commuter services to London's Victoria, St. Pancras (via Sittingbourne or Rainham) and a regular service to Canterbury and the coast. The village also enjoys excellent road links to London and the coast via the A2 and the nearby M2 motorway.
Faversham has a wide choice of supermarkets, restaurants, individual shops and leisure facilities. There are three markets a week in the cobbled town square beside the ancient Guildhall. Community attractions include the famous annual Hop Festival (the town boasts the oldest brewery in the country) and a magnificent weekend-long classic car show.
On the outskirts of the town, Brogdale 'The Home of the National Fruit Collection' stages regular events celebrating Kent as the fruit producing Garden of England. Both Faversham and Sittingbourne boast high-achieving grammar schools.
The cathedral city of Canterbury; Margate, home of its Turner Gallery; and trendy Whitstable, renowned for its oyster, beaches and interesting mix of shops, are all short journeys away. Thanks to the Eurostar, the 'Shuttle' and cross- Channel ferries, the Continent is virtually on your doorstep
