4 bed detached house for sale

Lambden Road, Pluckley TN27

Having been owned by the same family for over 50 years, this is a superb chance to acquire a Grade II listed extended four bedroom detached home in a beautifully presented plot of just over 1 acre with the added benefit of no forward chain.

West Cottage has been a happy family home for many years, a testament to what a relaxing and enjoyable place to live. In that time the vendors have spent much time and love firstly extending the home back in 1979 and making other improvements along the way such as enlarging the plot to what you see today. Whilst well maintained, the time has now come for the next chapter of it’s life and would benefit from some updating and modernising

The property is approached via a five bar gate and private tarmac driveway leading to a parking/turning area. The grounds surround the house to all sides and have been well maintained and cared for by the current owner. The front garden benefits from shrub beds and manicured hedging to both sides with the rear garden offering a flagstone area, and pond opening up to a large lawned area backing onto fields with magnificent oak trees.

You enter via a door to the rear under a porch canopy arriving at the entrance hall with exposed brick floor and walls. To your left is the main reception in the extension with it’s exposed beams, brick fireplace and wood burner and spiral stairs to the first floor. The kitchen/breakfast room in the original part of the house features yet another beautiful exposed brick floor with, utility room and walk in pantry cupboard along with a pretty dining room featuring a cast iron burner, in addition there is a ground floor bathroom.

The first floor is accessed via one of two staircases, the first being the spiral staircase from the sitting room and the second via a door in the dining room. There is a principal bedroom in the extension with access to a Jack’n’Jill bathroom, a further large double bedroom and two more bedrooms complete the first floor accommodation.
