Seller Insight    “The views and setting were what sold it to us instantly,’ say the owners of this beautifully refurbished 1950s chalet-style home. “You’ve got total privacy to the rear with countryside stretching as far as the eye can see, yet Ebbsfleet, the M25, Bluewater and excellent schools are all within easy reach.” Set on a private, gated plot of two acres, the home combines rural tranquillity with modern living. “We’ve reimagined the house from top to bottom to suit how we live—everything has been upgraded to a high standard.” Arranged over three floors, the main house offers generous space for families and guests. “There are three bedrooms on the second floor, including a primary with en suite and connected his and hers dressing rooms, and a separate loft conversion housing a serene bedroom with lounge and en suite. You can even soak in the bath while gazing out over the fields—it’s our favourite place to unwind.” .    The open-plan kitchen/diner and adjoining conservatory are at the heart of the home. “This space is perfect for family breakfasts or hosting friends,” the owners say. “We added air conditioning to key rooms, a pressure-boosted water system, and even a safe room—everything is designed for comfort and practicality.” The leisure wing, once a pool house, is now a standout feature. It’s a fully air-conditioned gym/dance studio, games room and temperature-controlled wine cellar and tasting room —probably the biggest domestic gym most people will see,” they note. Meanwhile, the converted stables now offer luxury guest accommodation with two en suite rooms, one featuring its own lounge and mini kitchen. “We’ve found that heated bathroom floors and high-spec finishes make it ideal for visitors or multi-generational living.” .    Outdoors, the two-acre plot includes a large front driveway, formal rear gardens, and fully enclosed paddocks, “great for dogs,” say the owners. “Evenings on the terrace, watching the sun go down with a glass of wine, are just magical.” “The space, comfort and flow of the house make it perfect year-round—whether hosting Christmas, summer barbecues in the outdoor kitchen, or simply enjoying a peaceful Sunday morning. We’ll really miss the peacefulness, the lifestyle, and even the gentle hum of Brands Hatch on race days—we get complimentary tickets!” say the owners. “This house has been an amazing sanctuary and place to create memories.
