*New EPC awaited*

A delightful and deceptively spacious detached residence which has been significantly improved by the current owners who have transformed the property into a stunning family home. Ashmane offers just under 1500 sq. ft of beautifully appointed accommodation and has a wonderful rear garden which enjoys plenty of sunshine and a peaceful outlook onto trees behind. Situated in the heart of the village of Preston, the property enjoys a convenient position within walking distance of the village pub, primary school, butchers and village stores. Preston is surrounded by idyllic Kent countryside, with plenty of stunning walking and cycling routes as well as bridle paths and riding schools.

There really is more than meets the eye with this property and internal viewings are strongly recommended to fully appreciate the living accommodation on offer. It is set back from the road, with a front garden and shingle driveway which leads up to a detached garage which has power and lighting. The front door opens into a bright, spacious entrance hall which sets the precedent for the rest of the property. On the right, you have a downstairs WC, before the hallway continues through to the kitchen and living areas. The downstairs layout flows beautifully, and the natural décor and colour palette used create a serene atmosphere. The living room is a generous, bright space which features an open fire and built in shelving. A door from this room then leads into a useful, versatile reception room which is currently being used as a study, before opening into a beautiful family dining space which has bi-fold doors out to the garden. This is also open to the kitchen, creating a wonderful social space, perfect for spending quality time together as a family or hosting friends. Resin flooring is laid throughout the kitchen and dining areas, creating an aesthetically pleasing finish.

The kitchen is sleek and minimalist in design, with matte grey cabinets. It is fully integrated, with a fridge/freezer, AEG induction hob with a smart extractor, oven and dishwasher. The cabinets continue into the dining area, providing additional storage and here, you will find integrated laundry appliances. The property also benefits from a whole house water filter system ensuring clean, quality water and there is an instant boiling water tap in the kitchen.

Upstairs, you will find three double bedrooms and a single bedroom, as well as a beautiful bathroom with underfloor heating. The main bedroom is to the front and features large windows which allow plenty of natural light to flood in. There are also large built-in wardrobes, to ensure a relaxing and minimalist setting. All of the other bedrooms have built-in storage, with one of the double rooms to the rear having a walk-in wardrobe space which has been primed for an en-suite bathroom. The bathroom is finished with stone-coloured tiles and has a large walk-in shower and sleek matte black finishes.
