OVERVIEW A wonderful detached bungalow set in the idyllic hamlet of Goathurst Common on the outskirts of the picturesque Ide Hill Village and within easy reach of Sevenoaks town and mainline station. Boasting four bedrooms, two reception rooms and generous gardens to the front and rear.

Whether you are looking for a forever family home that you can make your own or simply looking for spacious and adaptable accommodation on one floor then we think this could be your perfect property.

A generously sized entrance hall provides plenty of space to take off boots and coats after a country walk and leads to the two reception rooms, both situated at the rear of the property and enjoying views out into the West facing rear garden. The sitting room has windows on two sides and measures over 18ft across. The second reception room provides amble space for a dining table and has benefited from an extension that now makes a lovely cosy space to relax and enjoy the garden whilst a set of French doors lead out to the rear garden’s paved patio. To the front is a spacious kitchen with a large window, a door leading out to the side and a pantry cupboard. Across the hallway is a bathroom and the fourth bedroom, currently used as a study. Bedroom one and two are both great sizes, with bedroom one measuring over 14ft x 14ft and bedroom two benefitting from extensive fitted built-in wardrobe cupboards. There is also a recently added wet room with shower adjacent to bedroom two. The upstairs loft space has also been reconfigured and now provides a wonderful bedroom and en-suite shower room, we think this makes a lovely guest bedroom and the adjoining loft space is easily accessible and provides plenty of useful storage but also has the potential to create further first-floor accommodation, subject to planning.
