Briars Way, Hartley, Longfield, Kent, DA3

*** NO FORWARD CHAIN ***

Occupying a generous corner plot and located on one of the most sought after roads in Hartley, is this well presented, 4/5 bedroom, detached chalet-style home.

Extended over the years and offering fantastic versatility, the property can be occupied/set-out in in a number of different ways, large enough to accommodate families of varying sizes, and maybe even those that are multi-generational.

The home offers a block-paved driveway which can accommodate four vehicles, quite comfortably. It also benefits from a double garage with an electric roller door, light, power and a loft-space. This can be used for additional off-street parking, or the convenience of extra storage. It could even be converted, subject to the necessary permissions.

Downstairs, the property offers a large entrance hall. This provides access to a well appointed through lounge-diner to the right, with feature log-burner, and sliding doors to the garden.

To the left of the entrance hall, there are two versatile rooms, which could potentially be used as bedrooms four and five (both doubles). They are currently used, by the existing owners, as a large home office space, and a cinema room, but have formerly been used as bedrooms.

Within the (double storey) extended part of the home, sits a contemporary kitchen-diner. This offers plenty of counter-top and cupboard storage space, together with a gas Range cooker, butler style sink and further, integrated appliances. Added convenience is provided in the form of a utility room, with an additional sink, and direct access to the garden.

Separately, there is an enormous family/entertaining space, measuring an impressive 24.4 x 19.5 foot. Perfect for large families, this could make another cinema room, the main lounge & sitting area, a children’s play area, or a home-gym. The current set-up incorporates a sitting/TV area, a bar, and a games/pool space.

A downstairs WC/cloakroom, located under the stairs, completes the accommodation to the ground floor.

Upstairs, and well separated via a large landing, the property offers two, spacious, double en-suite bedrooms. The master incorporates a dressing room, a Juliette balcony with lovely views over the garden and Hartley Woods, plus a stylish en-suite shower room - accessible via false wardrobe doors for access. The second bedroom is also generously proportioned, with another, well-sized, contemporary en-suite.

The third is a slightly smaller double, which offers access to the eaves storage and the remainder of the loft. A family bathroom completes the accommodation on this floor, featuring bathtub, toilet and wash-hand basin.

Externally, there is a well maintained rear garden. This features a patio and seating/bbq area, with its main proportion laid-to-lawn. The space benefits from side access, a garden shed, plus mature trees/shrubs to its boundary/perimeter.

The property is within a short walk of village amenities to include the Hartley Country Club, the Co-Op and the Village Post-Office, as well as the local Church.

Reputable primary schools, including the "outstanding" Hartley Primary Academy, are also within walking distance. There are also school coach services providing access to Gravesend, Dartford and Wilmington Grammar schools from the nearby Church Road.

The neighbouring village of Longfield offers a Waitrose supermarket and the closest train station, which provides a regular service to London Victoria in just over 30 minutes. For those who prefer a larger selection of shops, Bluewater Shopping Centre is within a 15-20 minute drive.

There are some fantastic country walks for those who may enjoy the countryside, or for those with pets, including those amongst Hartley Woods.

Ebbsfleet International is a great alternative in terms of transport, for those who require a High-Speed link to London. This provides a frequent service to Stratford International and St Pancras International (Kings Cross) in just 11 and 21 minutes respectively.

Road links to the A2, M2, M20 and M25 are also within easy reach.
