A rare opportunity to purchase this well presented extended four / five bedroom detached family house situated on one of the larger plots on the Broke Hall development with nearly 0.2 of an acre being sold with no chain involved.

The current owners have enjoyed living here as a family home for nearly 50 years and the property now awaits very lucky new owners.

135' x 55' stunning garden being completely sheltered, enclosed and unoverlooked from the rear.

Very handy improvements have been made to the downstairs cloakroom to incorporate a shower enclosure and there is a modern replacement first floor family bathroom suite.

This home has a lovely 15'6 x 12'0 southerly facing lounge with lovely views down Bodiam Road so the property is not overlooked from the immediate front.

The original garage has been converted to a very handy five bedroom / study / office. This could work particularly well as a fifth bedroom with the downstairs cloakroom / shower room immediately next door. This is also southerly facing so if used as an office would make a very light and pleasant sunny room again unoverlooked from the front with views down Bodiam Road.

Summary Continued

To the front of the property there is driveway parking for several vehicles which in turn leads to a large 21'6 x 8'4 garage / workshop complete with light, power and roof light which provides excellent natural light in the workshop area.

Rear Garden (41.15m x 16.76m (135' x 55'))

One of the major selling points of this property is the amazing rear garden. It has been superbly maintained and is very sheltered and secluded being completely unoverlooked from the rear. The garden commences with an Indian stone patio which is ideal for sitting out having a mid morning cuppa, afternoon glass of wine or alfresco dining. The seller tells us that the large wooden shed will be remaining. The garden, despite it's size, is relatively easy to maintain being largely laid to lawn with well stocked and varied flower, shrub and tree borders. Further down there is an inset flower border, raised area with lavender and a shed to stay. There is also a compost area at the bottom and established trees which assist with the screening and also provide shade in the hot summer months where required. The garden is enclosed by a combination of wooden and chainlink fencing and luckily the large conifers in a neighbouring property at the rear of the garden provide further screening without the additional maintenance. At the side of the house behind the side gate is a covered area which is ideal for storage. Outside tap.

Large Garage / Workshop (6.57 x 2.56 (21'6" x 8'4"))

The larger and slightly wider than average garage / workship is kitted out and supplied with power and light and an up and over door with very effective roof light window giving plenty of natural light to anyone using the workshop end.
