About this property

A detached three-bedroom bungalow with excellent development potential, ideally situated for the highly regarded Amherst and Riverhead schools.

Situated in a sought-after area of Sevenoaks that’s particularly popular with families is this detached 1920s bungalow. The house is convenient for two of the town’s best-regarded junior schools and is set within a generous plot of 0.39 acres (0.158 Ha), with sizeable wraparound gardens and off-street parking. The home has been well maintained by the vendor and was extended into the roof and to the side in the 1990s. Now somewhat dated – although very well loved – the home offers a fantastic opportunity for modernisation or development, with great potential to be further extended, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

Internally the home has a number of character features, including brick fireplaces, picture rails and some parquet flooring, has a spacious floor plan with good-size reception rooms ideal for entertaining. On the ground floor, an entrance hall opens to a sitting room, dining room, family room and conservatory, plus a kitchen with adjoining utility room. There is a double bedroom and a family bathroom downstairs, with a further two bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor.

Outside
The house is situated on the highly desirable Witches Lane, directly opposite the well-respected Amherst School and 150 metres from Riverhead Infants School. The house is set back from the road behind a private, well secluded front garden, with off-street parking on a tarmac driveway that leads up to the house and the detached double garage. The lawn runs alongside the house to the rear, where it extends some distance, bordered by mature trees, hedging and flowerbeds. There are also vegetable patches and a paved terrace.

Situation
The house is perfectly situated to enjoy all that the historic market town of Sevenoaks has to offer, being 1.7 miles from the town centre. The thriving and popular town has a comprehensive selection of shops, restaurants and supermarkets. Fast train services into the City of London and the West End can be found at Sevenoaks Station (approx. 1.2 miles), whilst the national motorway network can be accessed at Junction 5 of the M25. The area is renowned for an excellent selection of schools, at primary and secondary levels, in both the state and private sectors, including the nearby local primary schools, grammar schools for boys and girls in Sevenoaks, Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells, noted independent schools including Sevenoaks and Tonbridge public schools, Radnor House, as well as prep schools such as The New Beacon, Granville, Solefields and Sevenoaks Prep.
