Staplehurst, Kent

This beautifully presented, deceptively spacious detached four-bedroom bungalow on Maidstone Road offers a superb blend of character and modern comfort. Carefully extended and updated in the late 1960s and early 2000s, the property has been thoughtfully designed to create an exceptionally practical and welcoming family home, perfectly suited to contemporary living.  

The property benefits from outstanding parking facilities, including a single garage, car port, and a driveway with capacity for approximately 7–8 cars.

The rear garden is a standout feature and almost a sale in itself, offering close to 0.5 acres of beautifully arranged outdoor space with a large workshop and greenhouses. Divided into three sections and overlooking orchards, it provides an exceptional sense of privacy and seclusion. The property is accessible with it only being a short walk away from Staplehurst Station , roughly 7 minutes. The property offers four well-proportioned bedrooms on the ground floor along with a useful loft room upstairs (currently used as a home office) , this property is ideally suited to families, commuters,  or those working from home.

Conveniently situated, the property is just a five-minute drive from Staplehurst Village Centre, approximately 20 minutes from Maidstone Town Centre, and around half an hour from Tonbridge Town Centre, offering an excellent location for family living.

OUTSIDE

The front of the property provides ample parking, with an attractive gravelled driveway offering space for approximately eight vehicles. The property also benefits from side access running the full length of the house, leading through to the rear garden. From the paved patio area, the garden is framed by established herbaceous borders.

The rear garden is a true standout feature and one of the property’s key selling points, extending to approximately 0.5 acres and enjoying open views over farmland and orchard at the far end. The garden is thoughtfully arranged into three distinct sections. The first section serves as the main entertaining area, featuring paved and tiled seating areas alongside a generous expanse of lawn.

The second section, also laid to lawn and accessed through a beautifully planted archway, includes an exceptionally spacious workshop, two greenhouses, and well-established flower beds and foliage.

The final section lies straight ahead and showcases an impressive circular hedge topiary, currently centred around a trampoline. Beyond this, the garden continues with a variety of mature trees, including pear and apple trees. At the far end of the garden, a seating area provides a peaceful spot to enjoy views over the neighbouring orchards. With very few neighbouring properties, the home enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and is not overlooked.
