This spacious three bedroom detached family home is located on the popular Tally Ho Road on the outskirts of Shadoxhurst, a rural village just 3 miles from Ashford and known for its fine buildings and thirteenth century church. Ideal for those that require the tranquillity of village life yet also need close proximity to fantastic travel links and shopping amenities. There is also a local village country pub and beautiful walking routes.
Set within a substantial 1.25 acre plot, this property offers a perfect blend of comfort, countryside views, and endless recreational possibilities. As you enter the property, you will immediately be struck by the sense of space and warmth. With over 2240 sq ft of living space, this house provides ample room for the whole family. The interior layout has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate modern living, offering a seamless flow between the different areas. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the spacious kitchen/breakfast room, complete with a central island and an abundance of storage space with an integrated fridge freezer and space for a Range oven, washing machine and a dishwasher. This is the perfect spot to prepare delicious meals while enjoying the company of loved ones.
The triple aspect living room is another standout feature, boasting a wood-burning stove that creates a cozy ambiance during the colder months. Natural light fills the room from dawn till dusk, creating a bright and inviting space. The adjacent dining room has French doors opening onto the patio. This property also comes with the valuable advantage of no onward chain. Additionally, planning permission has been approved under application reference PA/2022/2071 for an extension and annexe conversion, allowing you to put your personal touch on this already impressive residence.
Upstairs you'll find three double bedrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying extensive views to the front across open farmland and benefitting from its own en-suite shower too. The family bathroom is also on the first floor and has a modern four-piece suite including both bath and a separate shower.
Planning Permission: Planning Permission is granted under reference PA/2022/2071 to extend the property on the ground floor only and create a fourth bedroom on the first floor. Should the ground floor extension not be required we understand that the works to create a fourth bedroom on the first floor would not require planning permission but could be completed with only building regulation approval (subject to checks). Planning approval also includes converting the double garage into a self contained annexe with a bathroom and kitchen (this is without the extension needed).
Outside: The outdoor space is equally remarkable, with the property sitting on an expansive 1.25 acre plot with fruits trees, several apples trees, fig tree, pear trees, plum tree and a small vineyard. A substantial portion of this includes 0.5 acres of enchanting Bluebell Woodland, a charming natural retreat for the family to explore and enjoy. You'll find well-maintained mature gardens, perfect for outdoor activities and entertaining on the large patio, or simply relaxing in the serene surroundings. For those in need of additional living space, you will be pleased to discover a detached double garage with a studio area which could also be used as a fourth bedroom, home office, gym, or a separate living area. This versatile space has approved planning (PA/2022/2071) to convert into a self-contained annexe with a kitchen and bathroom and this is without the need for the extension to the main house. There is plenty of parking on the driveway for multiple vehicles.
