About
A rare family home that combines the charm of country living with mature grounds, excellent access to Ashford and a wonderful setting beside the playing fields of Ashford Independent Prep School.
– Greg Wood, Director #TheGardenOfEngland An individual detached family house of considerable character, offering beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 2,627 sq ft.
The property provides five bedrooms, three bath/shower rooms and generous three/four reception room living space, complemented by mature gardens and grounds of approximately 1 1/4 acres, together with approximately 1,746 sq ft of versatile outbuildings.
Twisden occupies a delightful semi-rural position on Goldwell Lane, within the highly desirable village of Great Chart, enjoying an attractive outlook across the playing fields of Ashford Independent Prep School.
The setting combines country living with nearby Ashford amenities, well-regarded local schooling and excellent access to the M20 and high-speed rail services from Ashford International.
The house has recently undergone a programme of improvement and redecoration, including new carpets throughout, a newly installed boiler system with replacement water tanks and pump, and new windows and doors to selected rooms.
Externally, the gardens have been enhanced with pond works and new fencing.
The accommodation is versatile and well balanced, with generous ground-floor living space centred around a principal sitting room, dining room, family room and study.
A useful boot room opens into a spacious reception hall, while the principal sitting room enjoys a brick open fireplace.
The double-aspect dining room has doors opening onto the rear gardens, allowing for excellent natural light and views across the grounds.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of units, with the sink area commanding some of the best views over the grounds.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged across the first and second floors, with five well-proportioned bedrooms served by three bath/shower rooms.
The configuration lends itself well to family occupation, home working or visiting guests. The grounds are a particular feature.
Oak double gates open onto an extensive gravelled driveway and parking area, while the established gardens are principally laid to lawn and include mature oak trees, a pond, paddock area and fruit trees including apple, pear, cherry and plum.
A detached brick stable, substantial timber garage/workshop and further outbuildings provide versatile ancillary space, with power and light to key buildings and excellent scope for storage, hobbies, workshop use or country living needs.
Twisden is not listed, a notable benefit for buyers seeking the charm and individuality of a country home while retaining greater flexibility for future improvement.
