A rare opportunity to acquire a slice of Sevenoaks’ history: Once home to the gatekeeper of Montreal Park, this charming, Grade II listed lodge house boasts an unusual octagonal footprint with mellow elevations constructed from locally quarried ragstone and an impressive central chimney stack.
A sensitive extension added just over twenty years’ ago has added a stylish modern twist to the accommodation, providing a useful separate utility room, additional shower room and spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/family room which connects invitingly with the rear garden.
Located just 0.7 miles from the mainline station, the property is a commuter’s dream, with the High Street also within easy walking distance. The property is offered to market with the additional benefit of a detached garage and off-road parking located approximately 0.1 of a mile away on Brittains Lane.
Points of note:
• Period features to include exposed ceiling beams, multi-pane sash windows with fitted shutters, high ceilings and fireplaces
• Entrance hall with a charming brick paved floor, space to hang coats/store shoes and an elegant original staircase rising and turning to the upper floor
• Characterful sitting room extending to over 17 feet, enjoying a superb quality of natural light by virtue of its multi-aspect, complete with a striking fireplace comprising an impressive wooden surround and inset Chesneys log burner
• Study/snug with understairs’ storage cupboard
• Sociable, triple aspect, open-plan kitchen/dining/family room benefitting from a heritage style roof light, French doors opening to the garden and a comprehensive selection of fitted, framed oak cabinetry and drawers by Rencraft to include undercabinet lighting, a plate rack, overmantle and integrated bin system with granite counters over and tiled splashbacks. Deep butler sink with period style mixer tap, Leisure range cooker, integrated undercounter fridge and dishwasher. Ceramic tiled floor and ample space for a family-sized table and chairs. Door through to the adjacent:
• Utility room fitted with co-ordinating oak cabinetry to include a cupboard concealing a wall-mounted Baxi gas-fired boiler, inset stainless steel sink with drainer, mixer tap and filtered drinking water tap. Space/plumbing for a washing machine, separate tumble dryer and also for an undercounter freezer
• To the first floor is a dual aspect principal bedroom, benefitting from fitted wardrobes, shutters and shelved airing cupboard housing the hot water tank. An accompanying en suite bathroom comprises a panelled bath with shower attachment, WC, pedestal basin and heated towel rail
• Second double bedroom with window shutters and hatch accessing the loft space
• Approached via a paved path with wooden pedestrian gate, the property enjoys a partially elevated setting with evergreen boundary hedging providing an enviable level of privacy. Roses and wisteria clamber attractively over the front and side elevations with the accompanying well-stocked gardens comprising a lawn with a diversity of surrounding planting designed to provide colour and variety through the seasons. A paved terrace caters adeptly for al fresco dining, whilst a substantial workshop/shed (14' X 8') to the rear boundary is conveniently equipped with power
