3 Bed Semi-detached house For Sale

A stunning attached three bedroom barn conversion located in a quiet private road of just six properties with beautiful gardens, overlooking a private lake being offered with no forward chain in the beautiful village of Smarden, Kent.

East Lake Barn is believed to have originally been constructed by French prisoners of war and was subsequently converted 22 years ago by a builder where it was then purchased by the current vendors. During this time they have gone to great efforts to improve and sensitively renovate the home to what you see today with high quality oak doors, flooring, windows, extensive professional garden landscaping and many other items to create an overall feel of high quality and attention to detail.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors comprising entrance hall, cloakroom, ground floor bedroom with en-suite shower room and personal door to the decking. There is a stunning open plan fully fitted kitchen/dining/living room with vaulted beamed ceiling and views across the lake and to the garden beyond.

To the first floor there is a beamed master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a second bedroom with a walk-in dressing room which was formally an en-suite and retains the plumbing so it may be re-instated.

The property is approached via a gated shingle driveway with off road parking for several vehicles leading to a detached double garage with power, water and integrated dog shower. The front of the property enjoys a beautiful walled garden with flower beds and shrubs. To the rear, a large decked area with jetty over looks the freshwater lake and leads to a white picket fenced professionally designed garden with striped lawn, winding brick laid path, summer house, green house and a well established vegetable patch.

Locality

The property is located in a quiet, private country lane of just six properties within 0.2 miles from the centre of the well-regarded Kent village of Smarden, an extremely sought after historic village boasting its own Church, village hall, Post Office and stores, butcher's shop and three well-respected pubs.

The village is situated close by the neighbouring villages of Pluckley and Headcorn, the latter of which offers a wide range of grocery and boutique shopping options, both villages with mainline railway stations to London Charing Cross and Ashford International which benefits from the High Speed 37 minute rail service to London St Pancras.

The larger market town of Ashford is just 11 miles east of the property offering a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and schooling facilities, along with out of town outlet discount shopping options.
Properties of this type, in this location are rarely available for sale and interested applicants are strongly advised to make immediate arrangements to view.
