GUIDE PRICE: £950,000 - £1,000,000
A stylish four bedroom family house situated in the favoured South side of Sevenoaks, 0.3 miles from the centre. The property benefits from car port parking and the current owner has fitted two new bathrooms in recent times.

PROPERTY
We are delighted to introduce to the market this attractive and characterful semi-detached period home, originally built in 1933 and thoughtfully enhanced by the current owner to create a spacious and versatile family home.

The property has been extended providing considerably improved living accommodation, while the kitchen has been refitted and two of the three bathrooms have been stylishly updated. The result is a home that combines the charm and proportions of its period origins with the practicality and comfort expected of modern family living.

On entering you are welcomed into an impressive dual-aspect double reception room, filled with natural light and retaining a number of appealing period features. A bay window, wood burner and generous dining area create a wonderfully characterful space for both entertaining and everyday family life.

To the rear the extended accommodation provides an excellent family room with French doors opening directly onto the patio and garden. The refitted kitchen is open to the family room with breakfast bar and integrated appliances.

There is an additional reception room which could make for a great study or ground floor bedroom making this level particularly flexible for families, guests or those looking for a home office or additional reception space, together with a bathroom fitted with a modern white suite.

Upstairs the spacious principal bedroom benefits from built-in cupboards, alongside three further bedrooms one with a refitted ensuite shower. The accommodation provides excellent flexibility for a growing family, guests or home working.

There is also a useful loft space, accessed via a pull-down ladder, which offers excellent storage and, subject to the necessary planning consents and building regulations, may present an opportunity for further conversion.

OUTSIDE
As the name suggests the property is accessed past the local waterworks, the frontage provides ample off street parking for family and guests. Being set back the property enjoys a surprisingly private setting, complemented by gardens to both the front and side. A secluded patio provides an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining with a brick built barbecue, while the lawned garden is framed by mature plants and established greenery. A lower, private & secluded garden area is also available to the front.

There is also a large raised garden shed, providing useful additional storage, together with allocated off-street parking beneath a carport.

SURROUNDING AREA
The property is situated set back from Oak Lane in the highly desirable south side of Sevenoaks within walking distance of Sevenoaks High Street.
