This stunning four-bedroom detached home on Stempe Close, Hawkinge, has been beautifully updated and upgraded to an exceptional standard, creating a stylish, energy-efficient, and comfortable home in a highly sought-after and peaceful cul-de-sac location. Every detail has been carefully considered, with numerous improvements inside and out that set this property apart.
From the moment you arrive, the landscaped front garden and recently added enclosed porch, installed in 2022, provide a warm welcome. A block-paved driveway leads to the integrated garage, which benefits from a new electric door, also fitted in 2022, and parking for at least two cars. The attention to detail continues inside, where the entrance hall flows seamlessly into an elegant oak-engineered floor that runs through to the dining room and into the orangery extension. The staircase has been upgraded with a Neville Johnson balustrade and handrails, while upgraded oak internal doors and bespoke wooden shutters to most windows, fitted in 2024, add further quality touches.
At the heart of the home is a stylish Howdens shaker-style kitchen, installed around three years ago, complete with a surround for an American-style fridge freezer, integrated double oven, microwave, electric hob, dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer. A chic Vegas Kitchens glass splashback and an electric vision blind fitted in 2023 complete the modern finish. The kitchen opens to a bright dining room with large windows, creating the perfect space for family life and entertaining. To the rear, an impressive orangery with bifold doors, a glass roof, and bespoke sail canopies adds another reception area filled with natural light. A separate dual-aspect lounge offers a cosy retreat, while a convenient downstairs W/C completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, all four bedrooms are doubles, with two benefitting from en-suite shower rooms, both modern, tiled. The main family bathroom, completed in 2024 along with the master bedroom en-suite, features a contemporary bath, a built-in vanity unit, and sleek large-format tiles, ensuring all bathrooms match the high-quality finish seen throughout.
This home excels in modern efficiency and comfort, boasting 16 solar panels with 6.5kw batteries, an EPC rating of A, and a heat pump installed by Octopus in March 2025. The owners currently get paid approximately £1000 annually by EDF, a rare and valuable benefit. Further updates include new radiators throughout, loft boarding with 300mm insulation, and LED lighting, ensuring the property is as practical as it is stylish. The landscaped south-east facing rear garden has been carefully designed for both relaxation and entertaining, featuring decking, stone gravity tiles, a gravel area, raised planters, and two pergolas, complemented by garden lighting to create a beautiful evening setting. With four double bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple reception spaces, a beautifully designed kitchen, and a superb garden, this property offers the perfect balance of style, practicality, and energy efficiency.
