Country house for sale in Manor Drive, Hartley, Longfield, Kent DA3

Located on one of Hartley’s most sought-after roads and offered to the market with the benefit of no forward chain is this immaculately presented, fully refurbished, three bedroom detached home.

Offering a wealth of potential for further extension or development (subject to the necessary permissions), the chalet style property sits on a generous plot which measures approximately half an acre, and is sure to suit families of varying sizes, or perhaps even those that are multi-generational, given its versatile layout and configuration.

Set back a considerable distance from the quiet road, the property offers an enormous frontage with parking for at least 6-8 vehicles. A lawned front garden features many mature trees, notably a large magnolia tree and a variety of roses. There is also a spacious double garage which allows further off-street parking or additional storage.

Downstairs, the property includes a bright and spacious entrance hallway, leading to the large, open-plan kitchen-living-dining room. Two sets of bi-folding doors flood the room with light and offer views to the generous rear garden.

The kitchen is finished to a high specification including neff and bosch appliances and is the perfect hub for amateur chefs or busy families with two ovens, two dishwashers, two fridges and two freezers. It also features a large dining island and white stone worktops. Added convenience is provided in the form of a utility room with a separate sink, and an internal door to the double garage.

To the right of the open kitchen-living-dining space is a versatile space that could be utilised as a more formal sitting room, a children’s playroom, or even a fourth bedroom. Currently open but with the potential to be closed off, it could even be a snug lounge. From here, there is access to a small study with storage cupboard, which also offers side access to the garden.

Further downstairs, there is a bright and generously proportioned double bedroom and a stylish family bathroom including a bath with shower attachment, WC and wash-hand basin with storage.

Upstairs, the property offers two spacious double bedrooms, one of which features an en-suite shower room and WC. A high-quality family bathroom with a large rainfall shower then completes the living accommodation.

Access from the upstairs landing is provided to an attic which measures just over 9m x 5m, and it is this space which offers such great potential for 2/3 additional bedrooms or bathrooms. If not, and the existing three (potentially four!) bedrooms are enough, then the space offers further vast storage opportunities.

Further benefits internally include Amtico flooring, fitted window shutters, new heating system, a re-wire, a water softener and brand-new windows & doors, throughout.

Externally, the property offers a large, private, south-facing rear garden with a patio and lawn. Side access can also be gained either side of the property. The expansive tree-lined boundary on the left guarantees privacy and a beautiful natural outlook which must be seen to be appreciated. To the rear of the main lawn, a gate leads to a further secret garden offering wildflowers in the spring and summer. This area could even be converted to a home office or Annex/outbuilding subject to the relevant permissions.
