Elmstead Lane, Chislehurst, Kent, BR7

This is a real find. Beautiful as it stands, there is still significant potential as the ATTIC AND GARAGE both have windows so could provide an easy CONVERSION, and the WIDE FOOTPRINT offers significant EXTENSION potential (all STP). Set behind electric gates (5 min walk to station) with a mature, westerly garden and an interior designer led interior, this special semi-detached Arts & Crafts house has immense personality showing throughout.


Enter into this glorious half of a period Arts and Crafts house, an immensely pleasing home (which we are advised was designed by architect Edward [E.J.] May). There are a wealth of features including expanses of original American oak panelling, beams and flooring; magnificent original Arts & Crafts stone fireplace (in working order) and original leaded windows which are large and beautiful, some with fine lead detailing.

Look all around and upwards as no view has been overlooked with design detail and interest stretching from corner to corner and up to the ceilings as well.

The oak flooring, solid doors, solid oak and panelled stairwell, plush carpet, detailed cornicing, high quality bathrooms and Shaker style kitchen bring further luxury to this home.
There is ample reception space to live and entertain with a glorious yet cosy double aspect living room in excess of 400 sq ft plus a second reception with the stunning leaded windows across the back and French doors opening to the utterly delightful garden.

Both first floor bedrooms are large. The principal suite includes very deep built in wardrobes and an en suite with window, in-set bath, shower, original flooring and striking stone wall tiles. The second bedroom includes window shutters and there is a bathroom adjacent with inset bath, wall panelling and wood floor. The useful high pitch loft has original oak beams.

The impressive landscaped garden (124’ x 62’) has not been overlooked for design and detail and features an original York stone patio across the full width of the grounds, a large flat expanse of lawn, a pergola (planted with white roses) and is surrounded by a variety of mature trees and shrubs.

The front garden is also landscaped (including a fountain in working order) and there is a double garage with original windows to the side and two doors giving access to the rear or front, and there is space for cars on the drive all set behind bespoke forged iron railings and electric gates.

There is also potential to extend the property further and convert the loft subject to the usual planning consents.

It is hard to convey the unexpected treat this house is and only on a viewing will you be able to fully appreciate this.
