Selling Court, Selling, Faversham, Kent

With a white-painted and tile-hung façade, Number 5 Selling Court is an attractive property offering light and airy accommodation, with neutral décor, providing a calming and uncomplicated living environment.

The bright reception hall exudes character with a wall of exposed bricks and a striking spiral staircase of decorative wrought-iron and wooden treads. The ground floor rooms comprise a light-filled sitting room with lofty windows, glazed sliding doors and a feature fireplace, with an open aperture linking to a formal dining room ideally-suited to entertain family and friends.

Additional reception areas offer a private study, and a flexible-use snug setting with easy access to the outside. Fitted with white wall and base-level cabinetry, the kitchen has terracotta-tiled flooring and a picture window with a pleasing outlook over the rear garden.

On the first floor, the four bedrooms all offer fitted wardrobe storage and the family bathroom is fully-tiled with a shower attachment over the bath-tub. The principal room is well-proportioned, with elevated views to the tree tops beyond the rear garden boundary, and offers an en suite shower room with a large skylight allowing light to flood inside.

Mature trees at the frontage provide a degree of privacy, with evergreen laurel hedging marking the boundary with the footpath and the edge of the driveway which offers parking for several cars and leads to the double garage.

There is an area of lawn at the front of the home which follows the slight undulations of the plot, with a spot for garden table and chairs to take in the south-westerly aspect.

A paved terrace adjoins the back of the house offering opportunities for al fresco dining with a brick-wall creating partition to the lawned garden beyond. Mature and floral shrubs, clipped evergreens and specimen trees create a visually-pleasing ambience to this secluded outdoor sanctuary.
