4 bed bungalow for sale

Pescot Avenue, New Barn, Longfield, Kent DA3

Rare to market and on a private road within the village of New Barn is this deceptively spacious, 3/4 bedroom, detached chalet bungalow.

Extended quite substantially, the home occupies a generous plot and offers plenty of privacy, as well as stunning views across the countryside, from the garden.

The home is set back from the road, with a driveway and a double garage which provide plenty of off-road parking. The front hedge could also be removed or taken back to allow for more parking, if you wish.

To the left of the double garage (which features light, power and electric door, there are steps that lead to a lawned section of front garden and the front door.

Downstairs, the property features a long entrance hall, with three double bedrooms accessible from here. The master measures over 19 x 12ft and features fitted wardrobes, as well as an en-suite shower room. Bedrooms two and three are also comfortable doubles.

There are separate living and dining rooms, both with access to the garden, and with generous proportions, plus large windows or doors, for plenty of natural light. There is also a separate, fitted kitchen with fitted appliances.

For convenience, there is a large downstairs family shower room, with large walk-in shower, toilet and basin. For larger families, there is also the benefit of a third/separate toilet at the end of the hallway.

From the dining room, stairs lead to a converted loft room, currently utilised as a fourth bedroom by the current owners. This could otherwise make a fantastic children’s play room/den, a home office area, or another lounge/snug. This, from its windows, enjoys beautiful views across Hartley woods and the Kent countryside. Subject to some alteration work and the necessary permissions, this room could become a more formal master suite.

Externally, the property offers a stunning rear garden. On a steady upward gradient, this features a patio and seating area, with steps up to the main proportion that is laid-to-lawn. To the rear is an enormous pool house measuring over 30 x 24 ft which, over the years, has helped the current owners host some incredible birthdays and barbecues.

** It should be noted that both the building and pool itself require modernisation and improvement works. The pool liner is currently faulty and the pool machinery would require servicing and upgrading. The pipework and boiler for heating however, are all run to the building, for convenience. There are also changing rooms / store rooms, for convenience. For those not interested in a pool, this could be filled, and make for an incredible home office space for those who work, or run businesses from home. Alternatively, for those with growing children, this is a great space in which they could entertain themselves. Subject to the necessary permissions, this could even offer potential to become an Annex.

Further benefits to the home include gas central heating and double glazing. The roof has also been renewed in recent years.

The village of New Barn is very well positioned for reputable primary and secondary schools, as well as the local amenities in Longfield Village. These include Longfield train station, which offers regular services to London Victoria in little over 30 minutes, together with a Waitrose, a Co-Op, a pharmacy, a doctor's surgery, a dental practice and independent stores to include a butcher a bakery, hair and nail salons, a barber shop and numerous takeaway / dine-in eateries.

There are also school coach services to local Grammar schools, along the nearby New Barn Road.
