Description
This extended four/five bedroom detached chalet-style home occupies a secluded position within the private road of Hottsfield in Hartley. Offering particularly versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, the property provides excellent flexibility for family life, home working or those requiring a bedroom on the ground floor, while being conveniently placed within walking distance of Longfield mainline station and the village amenities.
The ground floor is approached via an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and provides a choice of reception spaces which can readily be adapted to suit individual requirements. The principal sitting room is a generous room overlooking and opening onto the rear garden, with a feature fireplace providing a focal point. A separate study offers useful space for those working from home, while the additional snug/bedroom creates further flexibility and could equally serve as a ground floor bedroom, playroom or occasional guest room. A ground floor bathroom adds to the practicality of this arrangement.
A particular feature of the house is the impressive kitchen/breakfast/dining room, extending to approximately 30 feet in length and providing a sociable heart to the home. The photographs show a well-proportioned kitchen with extensive cabinetry, central island, exposed roof timbers and roof glazing, opening into a bright dining area with doors providing direct access to the garden. A separate larder provides additional useful storage.
The first floor continues the versatile theme with four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. The chalet-style design adds character to the upper floor, with a number of rooms enjoying attractive sloping ceilings and useful eaves storage.
Outside, the property is approached via a driveway providing off road parking and access to the integral garage. To the rear is a secluded and established garden enjoying a good degree of privacy, with a paved terrace adjoining the house providing space for outside seating and entertaining before opening onto an area of lawn surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and planting. The established boundaries and mature landscaping contribute to the property's pleasantly leafy and private setting. With its substantial and adaptable accommodation, secluded garden and highly convenient location, this home represents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a spacious family home where the accommodation can evolve to meet changing needs.
