Property flirt
Brand spanking new to the market, here's a family-friendly and fresh-faced hottie - perfectly located too. But how much is she worth?
Right, you know the drill! We’ll take you on virtual tour, you take a sneaky peak behind doors and in cupboards, prod and poke about, take some time to mull it over then let us know in the comments what you think it’s worth.
Here we have Parkwood, a five-bedroom family home built in the mid-Eighties and extended and adapted over the years to create this extremely versatile and also rather stylish modern home.
Let’s start with the location shall we? You’ll find Parkwood in the pretty village of Tatsfield, just a few miles from Westerham in Kent and Oxted in Surrey. It’s set on a pretty secluded third-of-an-acre site which you get to via a driveway. The property is surrounded by green belt countryside, and is on one of the highest points of the North Downs.
In the front door, you’ll find yourself in a spacious entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor, the large sitting room to your left, the dining room directly in front of you and doorways to the right leading to an impressive open plan kitchen / breakfast / family room and separate study.
The sitting room is a lovely space with double aspect windows and a stunning inglenook fireplace that makes quite the centrepiece – and perhaps unusual in a property of this era.
Across the entrance hall, is the wonderfully spacious kitchen and family room – the hub and heart of this home – which has doors leading out to the patio and back gardens. There’s a separate utility off the kitchen too, with a handy door leading out to the garden.
The separate dining room has doors that open out into the sitting room, and the study is kitted out with an integrated wall unit that include book cases, a desk and storage cupboards.
Upstairs there are five bedrooms, including a guest bedroom with ensuite bathroom and an impressive master bedroom suite that includes a dressing room and ensuite bathroom. There’s also a family bathroom, and large landing with a cosy reading nook.
Outside, the gardens are well established with a lovely terrace are, level lawns and plenty of mature trees and shrubs that create an oasis of privacy. There’s also a detached double garage, with an electric door.
Okay! So how much do you think this perfect property is worth? There’s a lot of house here – and in a very sought-after area. It’s quite close to the M25, Gatwick airport is an easy journey, and so is the Channel Tunnel. Oxted (4 miles) and Warlingham (6 miles) offer direct train services into central London.
Right then, that’s enough from us. Discuss, decide what the property is worth, and see how close you got here.
