Property description

DESCRIPTION  

This super family home set on the outskirts of Marden enjoys rural views across farmland and countryside beyond.  In a slightly elevated position, it has three bedrooms and three receptions, all very spacious rooms.  The bespoke kitchen fitted in August 2013 opens into the delightful dining area. There are two further rooms on the ground floor, ideal for bedrooms and/or study and this extension, built in 1986, also includes a second bathroom. The gardens are large with a driveway which leads up to a range of fantastic outbuildings which include a stable and a building which could be a workshop or garaging with power and light. The property overlooks fields to the side and rear with fabulous elevated views to the front across The Weald countryside.

LOCATION

The village of Marden is only a five minute drive away as is Staplehurst which both offer a range of local facilities including Post Office, chemist, superb doctor’s surgery and Primary School and play-groups.  The mainline stations both offer frequent services to London (Charing Cross - approx. 50 -55 minutes) as well as the coast.  There are bus services to the County town of Maidstone with its large selection of shopping and leisure facilities and there is a good choice of secondary schools in the area.
