This fantastic family home is set back from the road by a driveway which provides off street parking for up to four cars, with a detached garage/garden studio to the side.

It has a smart double bay exterior and is arranged over three floors, delivering far reaching views over playing fields, woodland, and farmland to the rear.

A covered part glazed door opens into a wide entrance hallway with storage cupboards to keep the space clutter free and a useful guest cloakroom.

To the right light pours into the living room through its front bay window. It is a welcoming space with plenty of space for family sofas, wooden flooring and a fireplace that adds warmth in the colder months.

Behind is the spacious dining room with French doors that can lie open in the summer bringing views of the garden in and extending your living space onto the terrace.

The kitchen, also accessed from the hallway, conveniently opens to the side and has a part glazed door for rear garden access. Bespoke wooden cabinetry wraps around the room offering wonderful storage and counter top space, with room and plumbing for freestanding appliances. The sink sits under the window overlooking the garden and there is a peninsula overhang with space for two bar stools, perfect for your morning coffee. An exposed brick chimney breast is a beautiful feature with an open recess to house an Aga or a range oven.

Returning to the hallway, the stairs take you up to the first floor`s wide landing offering a family friendly layout.

There are three bedrooms on this floor, two of which are generous doubles with the third currently set up as a home office. They are all beautifully presented and brightened by large windows.

The family bathroom is fresh and modern with a wooden panel enclosed bath, separate shower cubicle and a vanity unit with a wash hand basin and storage below. A rear aspect window reflects light off its white fittings and contemporary tiles for a soothing bathing experience.

Up a further flight of stairs to the second floor there are two additional bedrooms, both with eaves storage space, and an en-suite shower room.

Outside to the rear of the house terraces provide plenty of summer dining space with the one to the side framed by a covered pergola intertwined by grape vines. Areas of lawn are edged by fencing providing a safe sanctuary for children and pets and mature trees provide leafy privacy. Beautiful creative planting, such as a Japanese Maple tree, hydrangeas, and rhododendrons, make it a garden for all seasons while an above ground swimming pool with a wooden pool house offers great entertainment for the kids. Wooden sheds for storage, vegetable boxes and a side gate for street access deliver all your family`s needs.

The detached garage/garden studio with an enclosed mezzanine level above provides ample storage space but could also be an ideal room for your creativity, an office to escape the commute, a home gym, a den for teenage children or a playroom for younger ones.

This fantastic home, only a short walk from local shops, sought after schools and excellent transport links, is ideal for a growing family. A must see!

There are also allotments either side of the fields allowing you to grow your own fruit and vegetables on your doorstep.

Southborough Common, near to the property, is a conservation area where cricket has been played for more than 200 years.

If you`re a runner, dog owner or casual walker, opposite the property the woodland area of the Southborough Common, nestled behind St. Peters Church, is a very beautiful space. Ancient and young trees slope down to a stream with access to Holden Pond and Bidborough and Speldhurst villages beyond.
