Hanbury Drive, Biggin Hill, Westerham, Kent, TN16

Attractive, spacious 1930s four-bedroom family home set within a gated private estate, with generous and versatile living space and a wonderful wraparound garden.

Situated within a gated private estate, this handsome double-fronted semi-detached home combines the character and proportions of its 1930s origins with stylish, contemporary interiors. The house enjoys a leafy and private setting, surrounded by established trees and mature greenery, and is set behind its own attractive timber gates, which open onto a generous block-paved driveway providing parking for several vehicles.

The current owners have thoughtfully updated the property to a high specification, both internally and externally, creating a comfortable, beautifully presented and highly versatile family home. Inside, the accommodation is exceptionally well balanced, extending to approximately 1,500 square feet and offering four bedrooms, three reception/living spaces and a beautifully appointed kitchen/dining area.

The ground floor immediately conveys a sense of space and character, with an entrance porch opening into a spacious and inviting central hallway. The dual-aspect sitting room is an elegant principal reception with a feature fireplace and curved bay window at one end and French doors to the garden at the other, while a separate snug provides another cosy living space.

The dining room adjoins the kitchen, creating a sociable and practical space with matching tiled flooring in the two spaces, enhancing the sense of continuity. The stylish kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with dark cabinetry, contrasting granite work surfaces, contemporary pendant lighting and integrated appliances, together with space for a range oven. The cabinetry continues into the dining area, where a dedicated drinks preparation area and drinks fridge create a particularly appealing space for entertaining.

French doors open from the dining area directly onto the terrace and garden, bringing an abundance of natural light into the room and creating a connection between the interior and the garden. A separate utility area and downstairs cloakroom, with a useful adjoining door to the garden, add practicality and complete the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including a bright dual-aspect main bedroom, and a well-appointed family bathroom with separate WC.

OUTSIDE
Externally, the large garden wraps around the house on two sides, mainly laid to lawn with a large patio area that is ideal for outdoor dining. Mature hedging and planting enhance the sense of seclusion, while the garden's established character provides an attractive backdrop to the home. A useful side gate provides access from the back garden to the driveway.
