Detached house for sale in Station Road, Southfleet, Gravesend, Kent DA13

Rare to market and located in the sought after village of Southfleet is this impeccably maintained, four bedroom, detached family home.

Occupying a private and substantial plot, the home has been extended above its garages to allow for bright and generous rooms, throughout.

The property offers a generous frontage with a driveway that opens for space to allow parking for 4-5 vehicles, with the ability to extend this driveway further, should the eventual buyer(s) wish. There is a double garage with two doors, allowing yet more parking, an incredibly handy space for storage, or even scope for conversion, subject to the necessary permissions. The remainder of the frontage is laid-to-lawn with a raised patio to the left, offering Westerly facing, far-reaching views across the countryside. There are also mature trees and shrubs which provide shielding and privacy from the road.

Downstairs, the home boasts a bright, spacious and welcoming entrance hall. To the left of the entrance hall, there is a fitted kitchen with fitted wine-cooler, space for American Fridge-Freezer and range style oven, and integrated dishwasher. Beyond this, added convenience is provided in the form of a utility room, housing washing machine, tumble dryer, and the gas boiler.

To the rear of the ground floor, there is another bright and well appointed room – the open plan living-dining space, which offers two bay windows at the rear, and an abundance of natural light. The room is tastefully decorated and features a gas fireplace, a door to the garden, and some beautiful, characterful ceiling cornicing.

A downstairs WC completes the accommodation on this floor.

Upstairs, the property comprises four double bedrooms. The master spans a huge 23.3 x 19.1 ft and as pictured, is large enough to accommodate a super King sized bed with sofa – almost a studio in itself. There is an en-suite bathroom with bath, WC and wash-hand basin. A pointed window to the bedroom enjoys those far reaching views of countryside, once again.

Bedrooms two, three and four are all large enough to accommodate double beds with wardrobes or chest drawers, with bedroom four actually including some built-in wardrobes, in addition. A family bathroom completes the upstairs accommodation, featuring corner bath, separate walk-in shower cubicle, WC and wash-hand basin.

Further benefits internally include gas central heating, double glazing throughout, and a loft space for storage.

Externally, the property stands out with its meticulously maintained, south-facing rear garden. Largely laid-to-lawn, the space features mature trees/shrubs and planted beds, as well as a patio, a decking area to the rear, and a shed/workshop with light & power. Access from the garden is provided to a fully equipped bar, which occupies the former rear section of the double garage. Further benefits include side access at both sides, and a water butt which is filled by both rain & bath water.

The property offers further extension potential, subject to the necessary permissions, with a fine precedent set by some immediate neighbours.

The location is extremely popular, given the proximity to a number of reputable schools, including primary schools at Southfleet (Sedley), Longfield (Langafel) and Hartley (Primary Academy & Our Lady). Secondary schools including grammars at Gravesend and Dartford, or academies at Longfield and Meopham, are also within easy reach.

The neighbouring village of Longfield offers the nearest convenience, with a Waitrose Supermarket, a post-office, a Costa Coffee, and a variety of independent retailers/food options, together with a doctor’s surgery, a dental practice and a pharmacy.

Longfield Station is the closest mainline station, which offers a direct service to London Victoria in just over 30 minutes via Bromley South, as well as services to the Kent Coast. For those who may require a high-speed link to the capital, Ebbsfleet International station is less than a 10 minute drive away.

For those who enjoy their retail therapy, Bluewater Shopping Centre is just a few junctions along the A2, with the A2/M25, M2 and M20 all within short driving distance. For those with pets, there are some lovely village and countryside walks through Southfleet, to either the Manor Farm Barn, or The Ship, both of which serve delicious food & drink.
