Sommer House is a well-presented and thoughtfully enhanced five-bedroom detached home, ideally positioned on the sought-after south side of Sevenoaks, in Oak Lane. Set within a plot that extents to 0.21 acres, this elegant family home offers both generous proportions and versatile accommodation, all within easy reach of Sevenoaks High Street, Knole Park, the station, and a range of highly regarded schools.
The welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the home's interior, leading to a series of spacious and well-appointed reception rooms. The dual-aspect drawing room enjoys excellent natural light and features a wood-burning stove within the fireplace, with bi-folding doors opening onto a south-east facing terrace—perfect for entertaining. Double doors connect this space to a formal dining room, which also overlooks the landscaped south easterly rear garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a bright and functional space, fitted with an excellent range of solid cabinetry, both an Aga stove and double electric ovens, with hob and a range of integrated appliance. A separate utility room with side access provides further practicality. To the front of the house, there is a generous family room with bay window, complemented by a dedicated study with bespoke fitted cabinetry—ideal for working from home. A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.
A wide staircase rises to a striking galleried landing, leading to five bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys views over the garden and includes a well-appointed en suite bathroom. A fifth bedroom, currently configured as a dressing room with extensive wardrobe storage, could easily revert to a conventional bedroom if required.
There are three further double bedrooms on this floor, including a guest bedroom with en suite shower room, as well as a family bathroom.
The beautifully landscaped rear garden provides a tranquil and private setting, with a large Indian sandstone terrace, ideal for outdoor dining, and a level lawn bordered by well-stocked flowerbeds and pleached trees ensuring privacy.
Set back from Oak Lane, the house is approached via a brick-paved driveway offering ample parking and access to a double garage.
