Peartree Cottage Malthouse Lane | Shorne | Kent | DA12 3DS
Peartree Cottage Available to the market for the first time since construction in 1956 this substantial detached bungalow is tucked away in an idyllic location in the heart of this popular village. Set centrally in mature gardens the property has extensive views over equestrian paddocks to the north and west and views of the river Thames from most rooms. The wide entrance hall leads to the original double aspect dining/morning room where there is an open fireplace which provides a great focal point and patio doors opening onto the side patio. As you go through the rear hallway shallow steps lead you to the glorious triple aspect lounge giving stunning views of the garden, paddocks and river Thames beyond. The kitchen is to the front of the property and lends itself to knocking through to the dining area to create a stunning open plan area. The master bedroom offers en-suite shower and has double doors out to a small balcony area giving access to the garden. There are three further bedrooms and family bathroom. A further shower room/wc and utility/boot room which opens to the rear garden complete the ground floor. Stairs from the hallway lead to large attic room with dormer and velux windows providing yet more views of the fields and river. The space provides additional accommodation and storage into the eaves. Planning permission has not been obtained but the local authority has indicated that draft plans submitted to develop the attic room would be considered favourably. The carriageway driveway provides ample parking and connects with detached garage with cellar storage. The entire plot extends to approximately one half an acre and is beautifully stocked with an abundance of plants and specimen trees, with areas to while away summer days in total seclusion from the world.
