This 1960’s built detached 4 bedroom 'Billings' built detached family house is located towards the end of this popular cul-de-sac located within the sought-after village of Shorne. These properties are renowned for their spacious and well-proportioned accommodation, however, this property has excellent potential to extend subject to planning permission. As you enter the property there is a generous hallway, you will find a cloakroom WC, three versatile reception rooms currently in the form of a sitting room, dining room and study / family room. There is also a kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility room, this leads to a side porch giving access to one of the two garages. On the first floor are four good size bedrooms and family bathroom.
To the rear is a mature garden which has the novelty of a natural stream on its right hand boundary. The garden gives access to the second 25’ tandem length garage. To the front is a central garden area with two driveways either side leading to the garages. Available to the market for the first time since 1972 and offering vacant possession, this home is now looking for a new owner that will refresh and modernise its interior and is sure to suit an array of buyers, including those looking to pursue its potential to extend, growing families or those from London looking for an ‘escape to the country’ and a 'get away from it all' experience and yet is still conveniently located for road and rail links into central London. Shorne has a typical Kent village feel with its historic church, friendly local shops and, of course, the charming characterful pubs ideal for a quiet pint or a bite eat. But not many villages boast their own country park. Shorne with its locality to the A2/M2 enjoys easy access to Ebbsfleet International rail station and Bluewater Shopping Centre and the motorway network for journeys to London, M25 or the Kent coast.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 13, 2023
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
