4 bed detached house for sale

School House Lane, Horsmonden, Tonbridge, Kent TN12

This high quality modern detached family home was built in the traditional style in 2021 and is immediately available with no forward chain. It is located in a cul-de-sac just off a charming country lane in a rural environment close to a farm and surrounded by orchards. With its attractive brickwork, pitched roof dormers with bargeboards and finials, multi-pane casement windows and sloping roof veranda style porch it has immediate appeal even before you cross the threshold.

There is a wide frontage, where you can park at least three or four cars, that leads to the attractive white front door with a glass insert and opens into the welcoming entrance hall with wood flooring and underfloor heating that flows throughout the ground floor, while Bluetooth speakers are available in some of the downstairs rooms. There is a cloakroom and fitted utility room with laundry facilities as well as a staircase to the first floor and access to the superb dual aspect family living space that includes a wide archway between the kitchen and the sitting room/dining room providing an open plan feel, while still allowing for a discreet separation.

The lovely light and bright dual aspect kitchen includes plenty of flat fronted units housing an induction hob, built in oven and microwave, integrated dishwasher and additional stand-alone appliances. It also a stable door to the rear garden. While the spacious sitting room/dining room has a wall of fitted bookshelves with half height cupboards, downlighting and a charming banquette seat, ideal for sitting and reading with the children. There are also four bi-fold doors to the large and slightly raised rear terrace and when the doors are open it virtually appears to double the size of the room and provides an excellent overall entertainment space.

Upstairs there is a corridor style galleried landing with access to the boarded loft that provides plenty of storage facilities. The corridor leads to the attractive, partially vaulted family bathroom with a vanity basin and to four double bedrooms with delightful rural views. One is currently in use as an office and the principal includes fitted wardrobes and an ensuite shower room.

At the front of the property there is a south facing patio that is a real suntrap and is bordered by grassy areas that continue round to the rear of the property where the spacious main rear garden is delightfully cool in the heat.

What the Owner says:
What the owners say: We were actually able to watch this house being built and we were incredibly impressed with the quality of the build and the traditional materials used. We love the rural location with far reaching views across the Weald for about 10 miles and just a few houses in a quiet and peaceful cul de sac that is very safe for children and pets. As we have two young boys that aspect was very important, as it is for our friendly neighbours who also have young families. It is great that we can go for lovely walks around the nearby orchards but, at the same time, although we are a picturesque country environment, we are not isolated as we are only four minutes' drive from Horsmonden.

The village lies on the Lamberhurst to Maidstone road, surrounded by orchards and farmland and bordered by the River Teise. It came to prominence as an important centre for the post-medieval iron industry and the Furnace Pond is the largest of the artificial lakes in the area to provide power for the iron works but is now a pleasant spot for fishing, bird watching and walking. Many period properties surround the large village green as do the local shops that include a convenience store and a post office as well as a pharmacy and hairdresser. There is also a vintner and a bakery as well as a good primary school and kindergarten and a village hall that offers a variety of activities to suit all age groups together with a sports ground and a tennis club.
