An attractive detached family house between the picturesque villages of Matfield and Brenchley with a generous garden, offering a wonderful opportunity moving forwards
Description
Found on Brenchley Road between the charming and sought-after villages of Matfield and Brenchley, Burlam is an attractive family home offering a wonderful opportunity for new owners to put their stamp on moving forward.
The ground floor of this generously-proportioned home features a surprisingly spacious kitchen/dining room, fitted with high gloss cabinets providing an abundance of storage, together with a breakfast bar ideal for informal dining, and French doors opening to the brick terrace and rear garden beyond. The kitchen/dining room is open plan to the sitting room, creating a light and airy room with views to the rear garden via the kitchen.
Currently, Burlam has been designed to include two of the four double bedrooms on the ground floor, both enjoying bay windows to the front. These rooms can be arranged to suit, perhaps as a hobby room or study, ideal for today’s working from home requirements. A family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation. The first floor is home to two further bedrooms, both of which are served by a further family shower room.
Outside, the property boasts a generous and well-established garden, with an impressive range of trees, shrubs and plants, providing a wonderful sense of seclusion, together with a charming garden pond. There is a summer house positioned to the end of the garden, benefitting from electricity and a phone line. Additionally, there is a sizeable garage that can accommodate a car or serve as storage space, together with a brick paved driveway providing parking for up to two vehicles.
Location
Situated on this Brenchley Road between the quiet hamlets of Matfield and Brenchley, Burlam is perfectly placed for access to the surrounding countryside with easy direct walking via surrounding public footpaths and within convenient reach of local attractions such as Bewl Water (approximately 7 miles), the largest reservoir in the south east. The reservoir provides many leisure activities including horse riding, walking and cycling trails, a sailing and canoeing club, and fishing. Scotney Castle and Bedgebury National Pinetum and Forest are also nearby.
Matfield has a pretty village green, butcher and delicatessen and public houses including Gastro Pub "The Poet". The two villages share a Lawn Tennis Club and there are both cricket and football teams in addition to further local societies and clubs. The picturesque village of Brenchley offers a post office, doctors' surgery and dispensary, along with a fine church, primary school, The Little Bull Café & Bar, and a village club.
Horsmonden is within approximately three miles (approximately 3 miles on foot) where there are further village amenities including an award-winning village shop (Heath Stores has historically been named 'Best Independent Food and Drink Retailer' by Kent Life).
For more comprehensive shopping, Paddock Wood (approximately 2.2 miles) offers a good range of shopping facilities including a Waitrose supermarket, doctors' surgery, bank, Costa Coffee, butcher, Barsley's Department Store, Putlands Sports and Leisure Centre and a new Community Centre.
Tunbridge Wells (approximately 6.8 miles) offers a wide choice of facilities including two theatres, a multiplex cinema, health clubs, restaurants, cafés, bars and hotels, The Pantiles and High Street.
There are many highly regarded schools in the area, both state and private, including Brenchley and Horsmonden village primary schools, the Grammar Schools in Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge and Maidstone, Mascalls Academy in Paddock Wood, Bethany school in Goudhurst, St Ronans and Marlbrough House in Hawkhurst, the Schools at Somerhill, Holmewood House, Kent College for girls, Tonbridge School for Boys, Mayfield School for Girls and co-education at Sevenoaks School.
Paddock Wood station (approximately 2.2 miles) has mainline services to London Charing Cross via London Bridge and Waterloo East (and Cannon Street), with services from about 45 minutes. The nearby A21 links directly to the M25 London orbital motorway to the north and thereby a national motorway network, Gatwick and Heathrow airports, together with providing easy access to the South Coast.
All distances and times are approximate.
