Description
Thoughtfully designed across three floors spanning approximately 2,400 square feet, this remarkable home has been configured to accommodate the evolving needs of modern family life. The intelligent layout provides genuine flexibility for multi-generational living, whether welcoming older relatives, offering teenagers their own private retreat, or simply ensuring every family member enjoys their own designated space within this beautifully appointed residence.
The ground floor establishes the home's credentials for versatile living, featuring a generous bedroom or study, an impressive shower room with WC, and a wonderful family room/home gym complete with kitchenette and French doors that open directly onto the south-facing rear garden, flooding the space with natural light throughout the day. Integral access to the garage ensures convenience in all weathers, while underfloor heating provides consistent warmth across the entire ground floor.
Ascending to the first floor reveals the heart of this exceptional home, where a fully equipped luxury kitchen flows seamlessly into an expansive 27-foot lounge diner. The kitchen features sleek handless cabinetry and a suite of high end built in appliances including double Siemens ovens, dishwasher, fridge freezer and ample worksurface space. Floor-to-ceiling windows create a dramatic sense of space and connection to the stunning surroundings, while a second double bedroom with en-suite and separate WC complete this impressive level.
The second floor delivers the ultimate private sanctuary, centred on a principal bedroom of remarkable proportions featuring a walk-in dressing area, atmospheric skylights, and a lavish en-suite boasting both bath and separate shower. Two further generous double bedrooms and the main family bathroom ensure every family member enjoys comfortable, well-appointed accommodation.
Throughout, the specification speaks to quality without compromise. Italian-tiled bathrooms with premium Vado fitments, upgraded flooring, a water softener system, comprehensive alarm installation, and fibre broadband direct to the property reflect the developer's commitment to excellence. Sky Q wiring with internal aerial, generous storage cupboards, and a bespoke illuminated address plaque add those thoughtful finishing touches that distinguish a truly superior home.
Externally, the property benefits from a garage, car port, and additional off-street parking, while the remaining NHBC Buildmark warranty provides peace of mind until 2034. The south facing garden is walled & fenced with a large patio area, lawn and planting areas, ensuring you can enjoy the space year round, whether for alfresco dining, drinks with family and friends or kids to play.
The Lydden Hills location offers the perfect balance of rural tranquility and practical convenience. Walking distance to the local primary school and within easy reach of outstanding educational facilities at every level, including the world-class universities of Canterbury, families will find everything they need close at hand. The rolling countryside provides endless opportunities for outdoor pursuits, while excellent transport links ensure effortless connections to London and the continent.
This is a rare opportunity to secure an energy-efficient, architect-designed family home that combines contemporary style with timeless quality in a location of genuine natural beauty. Properties of this calibre within Lydden Hills are seldom available and invariably command significant interest.
