This adds to the charm, making it perfect for those chilly winter evenings but benefiting from access to the rear garden. Next to the living room at the front of the house is a versatile room that can easily serve as a snug or private cinema room, depending on your needs. Additionally, for anyone looking for a work-from-home office space, the designers considered this and have provided a perfect space with a view to the front.

There is a hidden space set as a coffee bar and a contemporary Quooker tap and feature wine cooler. The beautiful quartz worktops complete this stunning creation. A quintessential part of this beautifully crafted space lies a central island, perfect for spontaneous family gatherings, meal preparations, or a quick, casual breakfast. A large window at the front frames the double sink, with stunning views of the mature oak trees in the front garden. At the rear, of the kitchen, there is a spacious area designed for family dining with patio doors from the space that opens directly onto the garden patio along with a side door allowing access to the garage rear door.

Ascending the stairs from the entrance reception area, you are greeted by what can only be described as a grand gallery with expansive wall-to-wall windows, perfect for a seating nook to enjoy the serene views across your private rear garden.

At the rear of the property, the principal bedroom and the second bedroom both boast patio doors with Juliet balconies providing views across the garden, along with en-suites for added convenience and comfort.

The garden is a truly remarkable outdoor space, perfect for those looking to create their own sanctuary. Situated on a corner plot of approximately 1.5 acres, the garden is bordered by well-established trees, fencing and offers a sense of seclusion. Within this private space lies a charming island of mature trees, and beyond hidden from view is your own pond with private access to a stream.

When creating these distinctive homes, the developer focused on privacy and exclusivity along with quality to ensure a perfect finish was achieved. They also considered the environment by retaining many of the countryside features with ponds, village green and superb surrounding private countryside walks which are ideal for the children to explore and walk the dog. The attention to conservation doesn't stop there, the homes themselves are built to the highest specification with the green footprint in mind. As well as modern double glazing and insulation, this high-end home has an efficient air source heat pump heating system that supplies hot water along with the heating. On the ground floor, the property has zoned under-floor heating allowing full control of each space to suit your needs and this follows the same concept upstairs with contemporary wall-mounted radiators and towel rails in the bathrooms.

There is also a rare opportunity, with separate negotiation, to customise and design your outdoor space, whether you envision a swimming pool or a garden dining area with cooking facilities for outdoor entertaining and this has been carried out on several neighbouring homes with amazing effect.

Uniquely, the property also comes with permission to add another level of living quarters, offering the potential for future expansion should the owners choose to develop their home further. This allows you to personalise the property to your taste, all within an idyllic setting that truly makes this house your home.

See what some of the neighbours say about the development;

"When we first came across Bears Green online, it wasn’t the gated aspect that attracted us. We were more taken by the house, the land, and the beautiful surrounding countryside. We had heard excellent reviews of Clarus Homes, which gave us confidence in our choice."

"We absolutely love our kitchen and the living area, which are perfect for family time. The garden and the natural light that flows through the house are also wonderful features."

"The main benefit (of being in a gated community) is the sense of security. Everyone knows each other, and we feel confident letting our children play outdoors, knowing they are safe."

"We have fantastic neighbours who are always helpful and supportive. It’s been fun getting to know them better, and our children often play together."

"If you’re looking for somewhere private but also with a sense of community, this is the perfect place. The countryside is beautiful, and there are plenty of walking trails nearby. The houses are stunning, and the neighbours are great. Plus, Ashford train station is only 12 minutes away, which makes commuting easy. We’re incredibly happy here."

"The development is quite unique, we have big gardens and it's close to the school. The high speed is great and we like the Designer Outlet. The surrounding villages are also beautiful with great pubs!"

"The garden, the openness here is wonderful. Very peaceful. We also have some communal walkways around the development, a meadow and a village green which is a great place to walk."
