Property Description: This property really does have the "wow" factor! The current owners have beautifully converted this 1830s Grade II chapel from its dilapidation to what we see today - a modern, high specification and stunning family home. With some of the original features maintained such as patterned and exposed stonework, high ceilings, gothic windows and fireplaces, this property is the perfect blend of original charm and modern living. With four double bedrooms (two on each floor) this property will give each of the family their own substantial space.
Located on Sutton Road, those local to the area will already be aware of the property as its striking features make it hard to miss. Perfectly located for a meal out at the highly rated "The Potting Shed" and also for days out and walks around the historical grounds of Leeds Castle.
The owners have spent considerable time researching the best way to heat this building and settled on the installation of both underfloor heating to the ground floor and the insertion of a "HERU" system. This stands for "Home Energy Resources Unit" and it’s a hybrid heat pump that extracts heat from a source and transfers it to where it is needed the most. There are thermostats on the walls and then this recycled heat gets pumped out via circular air vent units in the ceiling of each room to keep it at a certain temperature. It also helps to reduce dust particles too.
Through the solid oak front doors, the entrance hall gives access to the stairs, downstairs shower room and both of the downstairs double bedrooms. The bedroom towards the front of the property is beautifully lit by two large gothic style windows and the bedroom to the side has an ornate original fireplace and solid oak double doors that open directly out to the grounds.
The living room is in the centre of the house and looking up you'll see a stunning chandelier hanging from the very top of the building. This astoundingly high ceiling together with the higher up windows provides this almost 19ft room with a feeling of grandeur. There is another ornate fireplace to this room and porcelain flooring that runs through to the kitchen/dining room.
The kitchen has been bespoke designed and handmade for this space. There is a butler sink and contrasting colours in the kitchen that compliment one and other perfectly. The units are fitted underneath a granite worktop and there's an enviable centre island that doubles as a breakfast bar for convenient dining. Integrated appliances include a Siemens dishwasher, a Siemans full size fridge and a separate freezer. Also included with this property is the Sterling Delux range cooker which has an induction hob. There are spotlights fitted and a breathtaking roof lantern skylight letting in ample natural light. Towards the dining room end there are even more bespoke units and plenty of room for a large dining table. Some more natural light is let in through the large gothic windows and there are solid oak double doors that open out to the garden. There is a separate utility room which has plumbing and space for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer and has more of those bespoke units and another butler sink.
The solid oak theme takes you upstairs where you can admire that beautiful chandelier in further detail. On this floor are two more double bedrooms. One has an en-suite shower room and both have fireplaces and gothic windows. The family bathroom is also on this floor and has a freestanding copper bath with a shower attachment to the mixer tap.
Outside: The property is approached through solid oak electric gates. The grounds are fully enclosed and sit behind a stone wall that runs the perimeter. The garden has been neatly landscaped and is mainly laid to lawn with some mature trees and hedging to the borders. There is a garden well that dates back to the 1800s and a substantial outbuilding that has also been converted and would make for the perfect work from home or studio space. Plenty of off road parking for a number of vehicles.
Location: Sutton Road is situated in a quiet residential area on the outskirts of Mote Park. Within a mile radius is a choice of primary and secondary schools. Primary Schools include Oaks Primary, Greenfields Community, Park Way and the Ofsted rated “Outstanding” Five Acre Wood. Secondary schools include the sought after Maidstone Grammar School for boys, Valley Park and Invicta Grammar. Within easy access of Sutton Road is Mote Park and Maidstone Leisure Centre with facilities for all ages. Local amenities include a Co-op, a library, a pharmacy, various takeaways and there are also several large supermarkets within easy access from the property. Maidstone town centre is just 2 miles away which includes a multiplex cinema, a bowling alley and a number of pubs, clubs and restaurants.
