Cranbrook Road, Tenterden, TN30

In terms of location alone, this beautiful home offers the best of two worlds. While it is within walking distance of the centre of the sought after town of Tenterden, once you have driven up the drive and let yourself in through the front door, you could be fooled into thinking you are in the middle of the countryside. 

The house itself, which has been designed to take advantage of the wonderful vistas on offer, has a lovely modern yet established, warm feel, and the accommodation is not only extremely generous, but also very practical and flexible. To the ground floor, there is a welcoming entrance hall, wonderfully spacious kitchen / dining / family room that makes the most of the lovely garden views on offer, a large utility, cloakroom, inviting sitting room with wood burner, and good size double bedroom with generous en-suite shower room. On the first floor, the three bedrooms are all good size doubles, the principal of which has a dressing area, oodles of built-in storage and an en-suite wet room. A large contemporary family bathroom completes the living accommodation.

As with the interiors of the house, the outside spaces have also been given a great deal of thought and attention, with plenty of practical storage space for active families or those with multiple hobbies. To the rear of the property is a surprisingly large, landscaped garden with a very useful timber outbuilding, which could be utilised a number of different ways, and to the front, a pebble driveway providing off-street parking for a number of cars in front of the house and timber two bay garage.

In front of the house, the lovely cottage planting leads you round to a useful area where there is a log store and space for bins. This area in turn leads you through to the surprisingly large east facing landscaped rear garden which lends itself perfectly to the enjoyment of children. An area at the bottom of the garden where there are raised veggie beds would appeal to those who want to live the "good life", and for those who would rather sit and relax, there are two large patio areas, perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Outside contd.

A good size timber outbuilding with power and lighting, currently used as a sewing room, could be utilised in a number of different ways, including as a home office.
