PROPERTY 
This charming property was built in the 1970s, offering well proportioned accommodation with lots of potential. The entrance door opens into a generous hallway with stairs to the first floor straight ahead. A door to the right hand side leads through to the open-plan living / dining room which is ideal for modern family life and has a feature fireplace with brick surround. It is particularly bright and airy thanks to a large bay window at the front and a further large picture window in the dining area. The kitchen overlooks the garden and is fitted with a range of wall and base units with a worktop over incorporating stainless steel sink with drainer and tiled splash back. There is space for free standing appliances and a door that leads down into a boot room that provides access into the back garden and also into the garage.

Upstairs there is a family bathroom, separate WC and 3 bedrooms. The master bedroom and bedroom 2 are both spacious double rooms and bedroom 3 is a single room which would also make an excellent home office. All 3 rooms boast fitted cupboards. The family bathroom is fitted with a pastel blue suite including pedestal basin and panelled bath with shower over.  

It is a good sized property as it is but for those looking to add space and value to this fantastic house there is plenty of extension potential (subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents). The property has double glazing throughout and mains gas central heating with a modern combi boiler located in the kitchen.

OUTSIDE 
A tarmac driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the integral garage which has an up and over door. There is a pretty front garden mostly laid to lawn with numerous flowering plants and shrubs, set behind a low brick wall. A paved path way leads to the front door and there is a timber gate providing side access to the rear.

The delightful back garden is east facing and flat with timber fencing to the boundaries. To the immediate rear of the house is a patio that offers a great spot for al fresco entertaining with a good sized area of lawn for children to play. There are well stocked beds filled with a wide variety of herbaceous shrubs, flowers and bushes offering colour throughout the seasons.

LOCATION 
The property is situated in a lovely residential cul de sac in the centre of Riverhead Village, 1 mile from Sevenoaks mainline (fast rail services to London Bridge, Waterloo East, Charing Cross & Cannon Street in as little as 23 minutes). There are numerous shops and amenities on the doorstep including a dentist, chemist, optician, barbers, butchers, a Tesco superstore and numerous other restaurants and food outlets in Riverhead itself.
