Weald, Sevenoaks, TN14

At the edge of the popular village of Weald, a spacious and attractive, detached house enjoying fabulous far-reaching views. Constructed in 2000, the house has attractive exteriors of part painted render with decorative oak beams at ground level with tile hanging to the upper floor, under a tall, pitched roof. The spacious accommodation extends to approximately 4,446 square feet – inclusive of the integral garaging - and is laid out over three floors. Rooms sizes are well proportioned with each having double-glazed windows and doors allowing an abundance of natural light and for an outlook over the gardens and the rural surroundings. Features include a double height reception hall with floor to ceiling windows, an oak staircase leading to a galleried landing, large brick inglenook fireplace and oak flooring to the drawing and dining rooms as well as to the study/snug, which is itself fully furnished with shelving, storage and a desk as it is currently used as a home office. The three reception rooms provide ample space for formal entertaining and sociable areas, whilst the kitchen opens through to the breakfast room and is comprehensively fitted with a range of oak wall and floor cabinetry with granite work surfaces, a central island and integrated appliances with tiled flooring. From here a side hall acts as the good-sized laundry room with direct access into the garaging and a small flight of stairs to the playroom/media room where there is also an additional WC – this area combined with the laundry room could easily be converted to provide ancillary/annex accommodation if required, subject to any required building controls. Laid out over the upper two levels are six good sized bedrooms, supported by four bath/shower rooms, two of which are en-suite. The principal suite benefits from a private roof terrace as well as a fitted dressing room and en-suite bathroom with separate shower cabinet. There are three further bedrooms on this floor, one with an en-suite shower with the other serviced by the family bathroom. The second floor is given over to two bedrooms and a shower room.
