Victorian home in spectacular gardens
Description
Ashgrove Place is a superb example of Victorian architecture, set in magnificent landscaped gardens of about 2.3 acres which create a wonderful backdrop and a high degree of privacy. The property, which sits within Greenbelt and and Area of outstanding Natural Beauty, is situated in the sought after south side of Sevenoaks, was built in 1900 with a later extension in 1930, comes to the market for the first time in over 50 years and offers the incoming purchaser to update as required, subject to the necessary building consents. Salient points include bright, versatile and well-proportioned accommodation, a fitted kitchen and bathroom suites, ample garaging and driveway parking. Also of note is the property's glorious westerly views across neighbouring farmland and its proximity to Sevenoaks School (1 mile) and the town centre (1.1 miles).
Arranged over the ground floor are the principal reception rooms comprising a generous, double aspect drawing room with a fireplace and doors to a covered seating area and the rear garden beyond, and a dining room with garden views.
The kitchen is well-equipped with a comprehensive range of wall and base units and integral appliances with an adjoining breakfast room with a square bay window. A utility room with a connecting walk-in pantry provides further storage and space for appliances. A study and a cloakroom complete the this floor.
Arranged over the first floor are eight bedrooms, one served by an en suite bathroom and another with a hand basin. A family bathroom with a separate WC and a shower room complete the accommodation.
The manicured gardens are interspersed with mature herbaceous shrubs, evergreen and deciduous trees, underplanted by colourful perennials in shaped beds, with a ha-ha inset with a well-stocked border providing uninterrupted views across the swathes of lawn. A set of steps leads to a series of paved paths and shaped beds enclosed by a row of pleached apple trees with a centrally positioned greenhouse.
There are several fishponds within the garden and an adjacent paddock is separated by a post and rail fence. To the front, a sweeping tarmacadam drive leads to the detached garaging and the carport. Wisteria adorns the front elevations with a deep border and a large shaped bed planted with a wide variety of herbaceous and evergreen shrubs.
