Ospringe Street, Faversham

Tucked away in the corner of a charming close in the village of Ospringe, surrounded by countryside, this detached property benefits from off-road parking, a well-established south-facing rear garden and a double-vaulted garage which holds the potential to be converted into an annexe STPC.

Nokomis was built in the 1980s and offers over 1400 sq.ft of generous accommodation, ideal for a family looking for open-plan living areas and four well-proportioned bedrooms.

The property has a high energy efficiency rating, with double glazing, insulation, low-energy lighting, and gas central heating, however there is potential to add solar panels to the roof due to its southerly facing aspect.

The front door opens into a splendid entrance hall with a large cloakroom and stairs to the first floor; fine quality, engineered oak flooring has been laid seamlessly throughout.

To the right there is a dual-aspect sitting room, which has a bay window to the front and French doors at the rear, and a wood-burning stove encompassed within an open fireplace which sits nestled beneath the bressummer.

To the rear of the property there is an open-plan family room with the kitchen to one side and a dining area to the other which overlooks the garden. The kitchen has an array of wall and floor units whilst offering space for free standing appliances.
The ground floor is further complemented by a study/bedroom which sits at the front of the property.

To the first floor there is a large galleried landing leading to four double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The rooms at the rear take in the lovely views of Ospringes countryside whilst the main bedroom enjoys dual aspect views and benefits from an ensuite shower room.

There is loft access from the landing and the space presents the opportunity to convert.

OUTSIDE:

Nokomis is set back from the close, tucked away in the far corner, and a pathway sweeps up to the front door with a lawn and fruit trees either side.

The enchanting rear garden can be accessed via both sets of French doors found in the sitting room and the dining area, part of the patio area sits beneath a canopy whilst the rest of the garden is mainly laid to lawn and bordered by attractive shrubs and young trees. To the far-right corner there is a secret garden which has previously been used to grow vegetables, however it would also make a super hide out for adventurous children.

The property backs onto farmland and footpaths which makes way to wonderful rural walks up to Ospringe church, the local primary school and the village of Painters Forstal which is home to Lorenden preparatory school and Lorenden Park.
