Forewood Lane, Crowhurst, TN33

Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this elegant detached family home which is set in a semi rural location within a 3 minute walk of Crowhurst station with services to London Bridge and Charing Cross.  The house is believed to date back to 1904 and presents predominantly brick and tile hung elevations below a tiled roof with an extension that can be used as part of the main living accommodation or to provide a self contained annexe.  The generous accommodation offers three reception rooms which retain characterful features, all arranged around a reception hall with the original staircase and many of the rooms enjoy an attractive outlook onto the garden.  The kitchen has been extended in later years and includes a 4 oven Aga.  The mature gardens are mainly laid to lawn on three levels and include a swimming pool.  To the front a gravel driveway leads round a central island to a detached garage and to the rear of the annexe is a private area of garden.  The property is well situated for local schooling  including Claverham Community Collage.

NOTE:  We are advised there is a small amount of Japanese knotweed on the boundary of the property which is being treated under guarantee.
