Description

Austen House is an immaculately presented family home, set within attractive landscaped gardens and situated in the highly sought after south side of Sevenoaks. Built in 2013 by a local builder developer and beautifully maintained since by the current owners, the light, well-proportioned and versatile accommodation is arranged over three floors, creating ideal areas for entertaining and family living. Salient points include a modern kitchen, three reception rooms, five double bedrooms all with stylish en suite facilities, a detached double garage and ample driveway parking. Also of note is the property's proximity to New Beacon School (0.2 miles), Sevenoaks School (1 mile) and the town centre (1.1 miles).

A generous entrance hall leads on to a trio of spacious, double aspect reception rooms, perfect for formal and informal entertaining.

An elegant sitting room features a square bay window and an attractive fireplace, a dining room has lovely views over the front and side gardens and a family room, which is open to the kitchen, features a large roof lantern and a set of bi-fold doors opening to the rear terrace.

The bespoke kitchen/breakfast room is well-equipped with a comprehensive range of stylish wall and base cabinetry, a matching island inset with an induction hob with an adjoining curved breakfast bar and integral appliances by Siemens.

A study with fitted office furniture and a well-appointed cloak room complete this floor.

Arranged over the first floor is the spacious principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and served by a contemporary bathroom with a separate shower.

There are three additional double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes and served by stylish en suite bath/shower rooms.

The staircase ascends to the second floor and a fifth bedroom with two skylights and an en suite shower room.

The part-walled, manicured gardens wrap around the property and provide a lovely backdrop. A level area of lawn is interspersed with mature evergreen and deciduous trees, underplanted by colourful perennials and mature herbaceous shrubs in deep borders and raised beds, with a large paved terrace ideal for al fresco entertaining. A greenhouse sits within a sheltered gravelled area.

Austen House is approached via a five bar gate and a bonded gravel driveway which leads on to the detached double garage. To the boundaries there is mixed evergreen hedging, with shaped areas of lawn flanked by well-stocked borders. There is pedestrian gate access to one side of the property.
