Ravenshill, Chislehurst, BR7

In a marvellous location in prime Chislehurst within the Conservation Area yet tucked away a few minutes’ walk from The Common and the station, a fine detached house of quality. Set at the head of a private cul-de-sac, the house has been the subject of a programme of upgrading and refurbishment by the present owners and now presents as a large and bright family house, presented with great style, that enjoys far-reaching views from the upper level. With expansive accommodation arranged over three floors, extending to just over 4,000 square feet, features include the magnificent triple glazed over-sized windows, especially commissioned from Austria, mahogany doors to the ground floor, a bespoke oak staircase and herringbone wood effect Amtico flooring. Due to the sheer size of the windows, sliding and French doors, there is an abundance of natural light flooding through the house that goes to highlighting the light and airy nature of the accommodation. The wide and welcoming reception hall connects with the sitting room and on to the open plan living space that expands across the width of the house. Here the dining/family room has a flame effect fire and a pair of glazed doors opening into the study, whilst an open arch reveals the spacious kitchen/breakfast room, which is furnished with wall and base units in a contemporary, handleless style and is fitted with appliances such as a range cooker and Quooker tap. The walk-in pantry and utility room provide additional storage
Laid out over the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal suite is particularly spacious and enjoys a dual aspect as well as an en-suite bathroom with a separate shower cabinet. An en-suite shower room and a ‘jack and jill’ bathroom service the remaining three bedrooms. The second floor is given over to a large and bright, studio bedroom from where there are fabulous far reaching views to the south, excellent eaves storage and an en-suite shower room.

Outside

The property holds a commanding position at the head of a sought-after cul-de-sac and is set back with a brick paviour drive providing ample off-road parking and a neat garden, while the integral garage has more than enough space for two cars plus storage. The total plot size extends to just over half an acre, thereby allowing for a very large and secluded space to the rear for outdoor entertaining and play. There are a variety of trees and shrubs including rhododendrons and magnolia, colourful herbaceous borders, roses, swathes of level lawn and some fruit trees including quince, pear and apple.
