Description

Property Description: Guide Price £400,000 - £450,000. This superb detached bungalow is located in the picturesque village of Chart Sutton which is well known for its beautiful orchard walks and open countryside while having good connections by road and public transport to Maidstone town centre. You enter into a welcoming entrance hall with Parque flooring which extends through to the large, double aspect living room with a feature fireplace (not useable). The open plan kitchen/dining room is the heart of this family home with plenty of space to cook, relax and dine together. Patio doors from the dining area let in an abundance of natural light. The modern kitchen is well fitted with white gloss wall mounted and base storage units, under marble effect worktops and a tiled floor. There is an integrated oven with a four-ring electric hob and space for a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, a washing machine and a tumble dryer. There is also a door to access the rear garden. The bungalow has three double bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom which is mostly tiled with a shower over the bath. There is also tremendous potential to extend to the side and rear of the property subject to the appropriate planning consents.

Outside: The rear garden is a fantastic size for all the family to enjoy. It is fully enclosed and mainly laid to lawn with a hard standing area behind the double gates. The outbuilding was built six years ago and is ideal for garden storage but could be transformed into a workshop, a home gym, a games room/bar or an office space for those that need to work from home. There is a paved driveway to the side and a gravel area to the front providing parking for multiple vehicles. The bungalow has huge potential to extend to the side or rear subject to the appropriate planning consents. There is also potential to erect a garage subject to planning.

Opposite the centre is a well established shop on the green served and run by volunteers, providing daily essentials as well as Post Office services once a week. There is also a village hall and a large playing field complete with all the usual play equipment for children to enjoy. Within a few minutes by foot/bike and you can explore the vast range of orchards and countryside with the option of short or very extensive forays into the beautiful Kent countryside. Chart Sutton is approximately 5 miles from junction 8 of the M20 for access to Ashford or London/M25.
