Hillingdon Avenue, Sevenoaks, Kent

PROPERTY
This wonderful family home has undergone significant refurbishment and offers open-plan accommodation with a contemporary finish. It is a particularly bright and airy house with natural light flooding in throughout the day thanks to its extensive array of large windows and south facing orientation. The front door opens into a generous entrance hall with wood effect flooring that flows throughout most of the downstairs space. To the left-hand side is a cosy sitting room that is a flexible space currently used as a playroom / snug. On the right hand side is a guest bedroom which doubles up as a handy home office. Further down the hall, is a stylish utility room with WC that has been recently upgraded boasting a butler sink with oak worktops and shaker style cupboards in a fetching blue. 

At the rear of the house overlooking the garden is a stunning open-plan kitchen / dining / living space which has been designed for modern family living. A huge set of bi-folding doors can be opened up to incorporate the garden into everyday life and there is plenty of space for a large dining table and corner sofa. The kitchen itself has a range of fitted wall and base units with a worktop over and trendy tile splashback. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, electric hob, extractor hood and oven. There is also a walk-in pantry which provides additional food storage and allows the open-plan space to be free from clutter.

Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to the luxurious master suite, 2 further bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is particularly large with a pleasant outlook to the rear and 2 additional skylight windows. It benefits from a stylish ensuite which has a corner shower with glass screen, towel radiator, WC and floating basin with vanity storage. The two other bedrooms are equal in size and are large singles that can accommodate double beds. The family bathroom has an elegant finish with contemporary chamfered wall tiling, beautiful patterned floor tiles and a modern white suite including panelled bath with shower over, vanity wash basin, heated towel rail and WC. 

The property has double glazed windows throughout and mains gas central heating with a modern combi boiler. The loft is fully boarded for storage with lighting and a pull-down ladder.

OUTSIDE
The property is approached across a shingled driveway which provides off-road parking for two vehicles. There is neat hedging to the boundaries and nice planting including lavender and red robin. A stone pathway runs down the right hand side of the house providing access to the rear via a side gate.

The back garden is south facing and particularly private thanks to mature hedging and several specimen trees including some productive Apple trees. To the immediate rear of the house is a beautiful patio finished in sandstone, which flows directly from the open-plan living space. It provides an ideal spot for al fresco entertaining or to simply sit and enjoy the all-day sunshine. There is a large area of lawn with plenty of space for children to play with a playground area at the far end. A shed provides handy outdoor storage.
