3 bedroom detached house for sale

NO FORWARD CHAIN

Rare and exclusive to market is this gorgeous, three bedroom detached property, located on a sought after road within the popular village of Istead Rise. A versatile option which could suit families, or potentially those looking to downsize, economise or “escape to the country”.

Constructed in the early 1900s and extended over the years, the unique property has been vastly improved by its existing owners, and is now maintained to exacting standards.

The property occupies a substantial, mature plot which offers privacy and seclusion, and a sunny, South-westerly orientation. There is a generous frontage to include a lawned front garden with beds, and a block-paved driveway for 2-3 vehicles. There is a double (tandem style) garage, for further parking or storage.

Downstairs, the home offers a spacious entrance porch and hallway. To the left, there is a bright and well appointed through lounge-diner, extended to the rear and accessible via an archway, with a stunning, exposed brick feature wall. There is a separate, country-style kitchen with integrated oven, hob, dishwasher, free-standing fridge-freezer, and plenty of counter-top/storage space. There is a small breakfast island, then leading through to the family room/snug to the rear, which could also be used as a more formal dining space, or perhaps a children’s play area.

Accessible via the kitchen is a separate side door and “boot room”, with a downstairs cloakroom/WC, large enough for all of your wash & tumble facilities to be hidden away, for added convenience.

Upstairs, there are two spacious double bedrooms, both of which feature built-in wardrobes. One overlooks the stunning rear garden, whilst the other benefits from a double aspect and lots of natural light. The third bedroom is slightly smaller but is still comfortably large enough to accommodate a double bed and some free-standing wardrobes/drawers. An enormous bathroom completes the internal accommodation, which offers standalone bath, separate walk-in shower cubicle, WC and wash-hand basin.

Externally, and accessible via the extended lounge-diner, there is a beautiful rear garden, which backs on to fields and farmland to the rear - a perfect space for those with green fingers. Mature trees & shrubs surround the perimeter which add to the privacy on offer, whilst the main proportion is laid-to-lawn. There is rear access to the garage, and there is a “crazy paved” patio space for seating and entertaining, a real sun-trap which is protected by two sun awnings. A further benefit is side access.

Additional perks to this elegant home include mains gas central heating, double glazing throughout and some eaves/loft storage space. There could also be potential (subject to the necessary permissions) for further extension.

The property is well located for the village amenities, with a parade of shops including a Co-Op, dry cleaners, chemist and restaurants. It is also within walking distance of the local Doctors and Dental surgeries, as well as the local Community Centre and CIU club.

There are a number of reputable primary and secondary schools in the area, with Istead Rise primary school just a short walk from the property. Meopham primary and secondary schools, and Gravesend/Mayfield Grammar schools are also within easy reach, with public bus and school coach services in the area.

Road links are fantastic, with the property just minutes from the A2 for access to the M25 and London. Ebbsfleet International train station is just two junctions along the A2 for those who may require a High Speed link to London, whilst Meopham station also offers direct services to London Victoria.
