Frittenden Road, Staplehurst, TN12 0DJ

A charming detached former lodge house providing well proportioned four bedroom and three reception room family accommodation, complemented by an established lawn garden and generous gravel parking, together with a detached timber outbuilding.

In all extending to approximately half an acre, occupying a semi-rural location on the village outskirts within the Cranbrook school catchment area.

Oak House is an attractive detached home, formerly the lodge house to Spilsill Court, combining period character with sympathetic later additions.

It features appealing elevations of white weather boarding and render, with UPVC double-glazed windows beneath a pitched tiled roof.

The house offers bright, well-balanced family living over two floors, with several double-aspect rooms and views over the gardens.

A canopy porch leads to the front door and into a welcoming entrance hall running through the house, with doors to the main ground-floor rooms.

To one side the large sunny sitting room centres around a fireplace with a wood-burning stove, a double aspect and double doors opening onto the patio and garden.

Across the hall, the family room is another bright, double aspect space with a fireplace and fitted shelving.

The spacious and bright kitchen is fitted with a range of units complemented by granite worktops and integrated appliances including an AEG electric hob, Bosch electric oven and grill, fridge/freezer, Bosch dishwasher and Electrolux microwave.

There is also a stainless-steel sink, pull-out corner cupboards and a tiled floor.

From the kitchen, the space flows into the open plan dining room with oak floorboards and double doors leading into the garden, making it ideal for summer dining and entertaining.

The ground floor also includes a cloakroom and a practical utility room. From here, a stable door opens to the rear porch and the main garden beyond.

On the first floor are four bedrooms, including the main bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en suite bathroom.

The remaining bedrooms include two double rooms and a single room, served by a family bathroom with bath and separate tiled shower.

Outside, wooden gates open onto extensive parking, bordered in part by a mixed rose and flower bed.

A detached timber outbuilding offers useful additional space with power, lighting, wall-mounted electric heater, WC and shower.

It is considered that this building, subject to obtaining the necessary consents, provides a good footprint for a more substantial replacement double garage with office above.

The garden is a particular feature, extending mainly to the rear and laid predominantly to lawn with a variety of established trees, shrubs and flower beds.

A patio area with central raised bed, gravel path and rose garden provides an attractive space for outdoor dining and relaxing.

The whole plot is enclosed by established hedging and extends to around half an acre.
