4 bed detached house for sale

The Street, Meopham DA13

In a prominent position in the charming village of Meopham, a most handsome, detached property of quality. Listed Grade II and with origins dating back over two hundred years, over the centuries the house has been extended and rearranged, gradually evolving into a beautiful house. The house was the first school in the village and was once owned by an artist who painted prominent society figures. During their period of ownership, the owners have set about restoring, refurbishing and extending the space, whilst at the same time reimagining the interiors to form a twenty-first century family home, which cleverly combines beautiful styling with marvellous period features capturing the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The house has an abundance of original features including beams, inglenook fireplacees and a well in the cellar.
Room sizes are generous with those on the ground floor allowing for a perfect flow. The 21ft kitchen/breakfast room has wooden cabinetry with a granite worktop, and there are three reception rooms including a cosy sitting room offering flexible accommodation with lovely fireplaces. To the rear of the property is a fantastic 29ft games room with a bar, which opens out onto a patio, perfect for entertaining.
On the first floor, there is a principle suite comprising a double bedroom, dressing room with fitted storage and an ensuite shower room. There are three further bedrooms including one with an ensuite shower room, as well as a family bathroom.
A further staircase leads down to a large cellar where there is a well as well as excellent storage spaces and an attic room.

Outside

The property sits on a corner behind an attractive white picket fence with a cobbled granite setts driveway to the side behind timber gates with ample parking and a detached garage. The established gardens to the rear of the house measure approximately 0.752 of an acre, with large areas of lawn bordered by fruit trees and planting.
