*** GUIDE PRICE £450,000 - £475,000 ***

On a sought after road for the amenities of Istead Rise; including its parade of shops, its reputable school and the doctor and dental surgeries, you’ll find this beautifully presented, three bedroom, chalet style house.

Improved by the existing owners and now meticulously maintained, it is a great option for first time buyers, young and growing families, or maybe those looking for the convenience of a downsize for village life, and zero work required!

The house is set back from the road, with a large block-paved driveway which can accommodate 3-4 vehicles quite comfortably. There is a further sheltered car-port which, if not used for further car-parking, is a great space for storing bins, garden furniture or BBQ. This leads straight through to the rear garden so is also a handy side access for garden waste etc.

Downstairs, the extended accommodation offers a great combination of cosy living, and fashionable open-plan entertaining/dining space. First, the entrance hallway leads to stairs ahead-left, and access to the contemporary downstairs shower room. This, being the only bathroom in the home, is fully tiled and features large walk-in shower, toilet, wash/hand basin and a heated towel rail.

There is a separate, well appointed lounge. Tastefully decorated, this offers a feature log-burner and French doors through to a dining area. Beyond this, the extension has helped to create a stunning, open-plan kitchen-living-dining arrangement with feature breakfast/dining island and integrated appliances. From here, there are bi-folding doors to the garden, as well as bi-folding windows which offer stunning countryside views across nearby fields.

Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms. The master is generously proportioned and features a large storage cupboard above the stairs which, with some work, could be converted to an en-suite WC or shower-room. The second bedroom is a slightly smaller double but still offers space for a double bed and freestanding wardrobes/drawers. The third bedroom is a traditionally smaller single, currently utilised as a dressing room with built-in storage/wardrobes, but with versatility to be used as a single bedroom, a nursery, a dressing room or even a home office.

Further benefits internally include gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

Externally, the home offers a Westerly facing rear garden. Mainly laid-to-lawn, there is also a section of artificial lawn, a separate sheltered seating area to the rear and then its standout feature – the studio/gym! This, being the former garage includes light, power, a storage room to the rear and air-conditioning and is the perfect space for those who work from home, enjoy keeping fit, or want to give their children a play-area. Subject to the necessary planning permission, this could even offer potential to be used as an Annex.

The local parade features a Co-Op, a pharmacy, popular Indian & Fish & Chip shop takeaways, amongst more. As well as the school, the community centre and CIU club are also within walking distance.

The neighbouring village of Meopham offers popular alternatives for both primary and secondary schools, whilst Istead Rise is serviced by a public bus service offering services to Gravesend, Bluewater and Sevenoaks, plus coach services to the local Grammar schools.

Nearby train stations include Meopham or Longfield for direct services to London Victoria, or for those who may require a High Speed link, Ebbsfleet International and Gravesend a short drive away. Bluewater shopping centre is just a few junctions along the A2 for those who enjoy their retail therapy, too!
