A charming and characterful home, well presented throughout, offering well-proportioned accommodation set within established gardens enjoying lovely rural views over the open fields and countryside beyond.

The front door opens into a light and airy entrance hall, providing access to all the principal living areas and convenient cloakroom. The central staircase located in the entrance hall offers direct access to the first and second floor accommodation.

The kitchen dining area is located to the left-hand side of the house and has a range of wall and base units with a four-range gas cooker set against an attractive tiled back drop with terracotta flooring and fitted breakfast bar. The formal dining room with high ceilings is located to the left of the entrance with large bay window offering views overlooking the front.

A door from the dining room leads to an impressive double aspect sitting room with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams with original feature fireplace set against exposed brick work; French doors provide access to the picturesque garden.

Steps via a secondary staircase from the sitting room lead up to the first floor into a beautiful galleried landing which leads into a bedroom with exposed beams and en suite bathroom with shower.

From the central staircase, steps lead up to the first floor where there is a convenient utility room with storage. The principal bedroom is located on the second floor, which is of a substantial size offering integrated storage and an en suite with bath and dual vanity; there is an additional bedroom with storage and separate family bathroom with further eaves access.

There is an immaculately presented private garden, mainly laid to lawn with established borders and a patio area, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining. The property benefits from a single garage, an additional car port under cover, further use of visitor parking, and an outbuilding which is currently used as a wine cellar and garden store.

East House forms part of Ashcombe Priory, an attractive courtyard of period properties situated on the edge of Fordcombe village, approached via a long driveway, flanked by paddocks. Formerly estate buildings to nearby Chafford Park, Ashcombe Priory was converted to residential use in the late 1980's, providing an intimate enclave of characterful homes enjoying a wonderful semi-rural setting.
