Dorothy Avenue, Cranbrook, Kent, TN17

Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac, The Tile House is a delightful family home ideally positioned within easy reach of the centre of Cranbrook, offering a wide range of shops, amenities and local services.

Set centrally within its garden plot, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of space and privacy. The gardens have been arranged to create a variety of distinct areas, perfect for both entertaining and family life, with opportunities for outdoor dining, relaxation and play and to enjoy the sunshine all day.

The driveway provides parking for two cars as well as having a double garage. The large porch over the front door provides shade and cover, and upon entering the house, the entrance hall features a large coat cupboard. Off the hallway is the sitting room, downstairs cloakroom, kitchen/breakfast room, and very conveniently, access to the double garage. The house has a lovely flow and off the kitchen is a study, which could also be a playroom or similar, with double doors leading back into the sitting room.

Off the kitchen/breakfast room, behind the garage, is an extension which makes for a very flexible space. The current owner uses this as a gym / utility room although in the past it has been used as a bedroom as there is an en-suite shower.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms and a single, along with a family bathroom with bath and shower. There is also access via a small stairway to the loft space which could be used as an office or playroom/games room.
