Description
Set in the Kent village of Sandhurst, this beautifully presented detached home combines contemporary design with timeless character to create a superb village residence.

Approached via a gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking, the house enjoys an attractive blend of brick and weatherboard elevations, complemented by a substantial detached timber garage.
At the heart of the property is an impressive kitchen, dining and living space, thoughtfully designed to maximise light and connection to the garden. Vaulted ceilings with exposed oak beams add character and architectural interest, while extensive glazing, including bi-fold doors from the dining area, creates a seamless transition to the outdoor entertaining spaces.

The sitting room is a particularly attractive reception space, enjoying a triple aspect that fills the room with light. A fireplace with wood-burning stove creates a welcoming focal point, while a separate snug offers valuable flexibility as a playroom, home office or additional reception room.
The first floor continues the sense of space, with four well-proportioned bedrooms. Two benefit from en suite shower rooms, while the principal bedroom also features fitted wardrobes and a dressing table. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom with both a bath and separate shower.
Outside, the south-facing garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide attractive and practical outdoor space. A generous terrace, complete with pergola and outdoor kitchen area, creates an excellent setting for al fresco dining and entertaining. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn and includes raised vegetable beds. The detached garage benefits from power and lighting, adding further versatility and storage.
