Detached house for sale in Church Road, Mersham, Ashford, Kent TN25

Attracted to the charms of village life? The slower pace, country walks and the draw of not one, but two local pubs, who wouldn't be?

Village houses that offer not only enough space for your family to grow (that's 2,500+ sq. Ft), but also plenty of space to entertain family and friends are hard to come by. Meadowside is the perfect opportunity to secure this type of long-term family home.

With an unspoilt outlook over glorious Kentish countryside, the sunsets experienced from the rear-garden are nothing short of spectacular. Whether you're entertaining from the garden or the conservatory, your guests will want to stay awhile. For more information or to arrange a viewing, please call and quote BD0443.

Beautiful, secluded and neatly maintained leafy gardens to the front and rear provide you with ideal conditions to relax and take in the unobstructed view, watching the sun set gently on the horizon.

The house itself has large double-glazed windows both enabling you to enjoy the lovely views from the comfort of one of the three spacious west-facing bedrooms, but also letting in plenty of light. Meadowside is a light and bright house year-round, and there is no photographic trickery required, this is a genuinely large property.

The entrance hall is roomy and welcoming, plenty big enough to kick off your shoes, hang up coats, and meet and greet guests. It flows wonderfully into the double-aspect living room where you can relax, stretching out in-front of the recently installed modern wood burner or TV. It's a wonderful family space with ample room for simultaneous use of the television at one end and peaceful reading or puzzles at the other.

If you wish to work from home, there is a large bright study. The kitchen, complete with granite counter tops and excellent storage options, is the beginning of the large open plan living and dining area to the rear of the property. The dining area leads into a glass roofed conservatory, and also easily accessible are a utility room, ground floor WC and garage.

The garage is electrically operated, a feature that will appeal to all, not only the car enthusiasts! The space is integral to the house and incredibly practical; you don't have to venture out in all weathers to access your car. The driveway at the front of the house offers plenty of parking options and the established Beech hedge provides privacy and screens the property from the road too.

Previously operated as a small bed and breakfast, Meadowside has a unique feature in the form of a very convenient back staircase leading from the dining area to two of the bedrooms. A handy feature you will benefit from if you suddenly realise you've left your phone in your room, or if you want to raid the fridge undetected at night!

The first floor of the home offers great versatility, with five well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom benefits from both its own dressing room (which can be fully closed off to offer the option of a sixth bedroom), enviable wardrobe space and modern en suite facilities.

Mersham is a small, easily accessible village which boasts all of the perks of quiet country life while also only being 10 minutes from Ashford town centre. Designer shopping and the high-speed railway into London, (only 37 minutes) are only a short drive away. Equally, if you prefer the seaside, equidistant to the East is the pretty coastal town of Hythe, providing an alternative option if you fancy heading off for an ice cream or fish and chips by the sea instead.

Mersham has an attractive approach from whichever direction you arrive and has a great community feel with cricket and football clubs, primary school and local shop (The Mersham Stores). Travelling down the hill, the Farriers Arms Pub is 400 years old and has its own microbrewery selling a number of locally produced ales including 'Farriers 1606', you have to try it! Towards the A20, and easily accessible via the garden gate and footpath at the rear of the property is The Royal Oak Pub which has recently reopened to great success. Nearby Mersham Le Hatch is home to the Kent Cookery School and the popular Secret Garden.
