Description
Charming well-proportioned family home in a peaceful, yet accessible setting with excellent outbuildings and south-east facing gardens and land of 1.6 acres
The wide entrance hall has attractive oak flooring which extends throughout the majority of the ground floor giving an excellent flow and feeling of light and space. The impressive sitting room to the left extends to nearly 30ft and is triple aspect with French doors out to the rear garden and a wonderful brick feature fireplace and log burner.
There is a pretty family room/study to the rear with a log-burner, again with French doors out to the garden whilst a further snug to the front could also be used as a work from home space, if required.
The marvellous kitchen/dining room is a real feature of the house, with a garden room feel to the dining area with a vaulted ceiling and expanses of leaded light windows flooding the room with natural light. Bespoke shaker style cabinetry in the main kitchen area is complimented by limestone flooring with a large central island unit with butler sink providing an attractive focal point. There is an electric range cooker, integrated appliances and space for a fridge freezer whilst the adjoining utility/boot room provides plenty of storage and space for laundry appliances.
The first floor has a spacious galleried landing with all four bedrooms leading from here, the principal being double aspect with a walk-through dressing room and well-fitted en-suite bath/shower room with free-standing bath, wide basin vanity unit and corner shower cubicle. The three remaining bedrooms all have good outlooks and have access to the family shower room.
Outside
There is a generous gravel driveway which opens into the stable yard with a tack room, three stables (with power, light and a water supply) and a garage/workshop as well as access to the garden studio/bedroom with en-suite. The majority of the gardens and land are to the side and rear of the house with a productive vegetable garden, delightful Wisteria-covered pergola with brick built barbecue and further areas for relaxing and entertaining. There are wide swathes of lawn and paddock (with separate gated access) interspersed with colourful shrubs and a productive small orchard with a total plot of 1.6 acres and delightful outlooks over surrounding orchards.
Situation
The house is down a private lane just before the village of Matfield with its cricket pitch, duck pond and picturesque village green, the largest in Kent. There is also a village butcher/general store and two pub/restaurants. There are some wonderful country walks and footpaths nearby and the village is less than 3 miles from Paddock Wood with local shops, Waitrose supermarket and mainline station
