Full property description
Built in the 1950s and has remained with the same family for over sixty years, this substantial, detached property has seen numerous improvements and architectural enhancements by the current owners who have sensitively extended the property to offer a beautifully, presented light and airy family home.
Set within a generous 0.32-acre plot of splendid landscaped gardens and recently bloc paved driveway, the 2300 sq.ft property is situated less than half a mile walk into the market town of Faversham and its train station with high speed links to London.
Working closely with Clague architects, the property has been designed and extended to capture light and energy, whilst offering open plan living areas perfect for entertaining and modern family life. Natural materials, high specification fixtures and fine craftsmanship flourishes throughout and brings a beautiful finish to the property.
The front door opens into an entrance hall with vaulted ceiling and galleried landing, there is cloakroom and bespoke under stair storage. There are two reception rooms to either side of the hallway, one of which has an original brick fireplace which encompasses a wood burning stove, the window overlooks the front and has been dressed in contemporary plantation shutters, whilst to the other end, French doors provide entry into the open plan living area. This forms part of the extension and is a substantial space perfect for entertaining with bi-fold doors opening out onto a recently laid sandstone patio.
The kitchen is arranged around a large island, there is an array of wall and floor units that integrate all main appliances including two Kuppersbuschs ovens, the area has been finished with terrazzo quartz work tops and metro style tiles. The space is further enhanced by a well-appointed utility room with butler sink and room for laundry appliances, there is also access to the garage and garden.
Stairs rise to a large galleried landing which leads to four double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom with roll topped bath, Waverly sink, separate walk in shower all finished with St.James fixtures. The principal bedroom is an elegant, vaulted space with a Juliet glass balcony which makes the most of the views and stunning sunrises. The bedroom also benefits from a dressing room and luxury ensuite.
OUTSIDE:
The garden is almost 200 ft long and the plot in which the property sits occupies almost a third of an acre plot of splendid, landscaped gardens and smart driveway. From the bi-fold doors there is a recently laid Indian sandstone patio which stretches out onto a beautifully manicured lawn which is bordered by established shrubs and young trees. This reaches down to a row of bushes which divides the second part of the garden ideal for a play area or alternatively a spot for a home office or art studio. The driveway has been recently paved and leads to an integral garage, it is set back from the road with a row of established shrubbery that sits between the main road and private access lane.
