The Property

A substantial detached family house with impressive reception rooms and family space. From the drive and front door is a long entrance hall with all the living areas to both sides. The kitchen with dining area is designed with modern family living in mind. There is a bright south facing room with French doors to an excellent courtyard garden area ideal for al fresco entertaining. Adjacent is the family room, which is the smaller reception room or snug with a lovely wood burner as its central feature. The more elegant drawing room is a double length room with Jet Master fireplace to one end and two tripartite casement windows towards the gardens.

The easy staircase gets to the long landing with four double bedrooms and a large single fifth bedroom with the two bathrooms set either side. The main bedroom has an elegant bay window overlooking the gardens and alcoves either side, ideal for built in wardrobes if needed.

Outside

The house is set back towards the northern side and thus has fine and level south facing gardens. The garden is divided into a series of 'rooms' from patio / courtyard area for outside entertaining straight from the kitchen / dining room; to a level lawned area past the established beech hedge; to an orchard in the distance.

A wild area of woodland, the Copse, gives good privacy and potentially a sustainable fuel source. To the eastern side is a well hidden potager garden and further lawns.

From the front of the house, the driveway comes in from the lane and there is potential to extend the driveway further to create a garage block to the back or side of the house, subject to any necessary consents.

Situation

Set between Quarr and Cucklington, the house is amongst good countryside. Gillingham is the nearest town with its mainline railway connecting London (Waterloo) or Exeter in the West. There are a fine array of supermarkets, such as Waitrose, and both private and state schooling are in abundance in the wider area. The A303 is only approximately 2 miles to the north giving access East to Salisbury or London or The West Country.
