There are many things that make homes special. We find it all starts with emotion, that discovery of a great home. For us the owners' story here is a great example of that. Twelve years ago they were searching for a home. They wanted somewhere modern, in a location that made getting to London easy and they hoped to get a sense of privacy. They saw this home and knew straight away it was the right one for them, for many reasons, but especially because no other homes backed onto it. With modern offices behind the sense of privacy felt great. They lost the house, beaten to it by someone else. The search continued elsewhere but nothing met the same standard, ticked so many boxes and amazingly, just when they feared they may have to make a compromise elsewhere, less privacy, not such a good aspect for the sun on the garden, it came back to the market and all was well. Eleven years later that home they fell in love with has grown up to be something very special. A carefully considered extension has transformed this into a wonderful four bedroom home, the masterpiece being the open plan living space looking over the garden that seamlessly combines kitchen, dining and family space into one. It is a room that draws you to it and keeps you there. This house has taken on a whole new aspect and now provides a home that can be enjoyed in many different ways. The separate sitting room at the front of the house can be just that, it can be a tv room, a kids playroom, it can be more than one thing (it currently provides a home office work area as well as being a sitting room), it could even become a bedroom if someone wanted it to be. The garage has been thoughtfully utilised to provide a utility area with sink and work units at the rear. Upstairs you can use the space as you wish. Currently one bedroom is being used as a home office/dressing room, another as a home gym. There is a wonderful double bedroom that is part of the extension and then the main bedroom which has an en suite with dressing area too. The accommodation, the feel of the home, the skylight illuminating the kitchen, all are wonderful and still other things make this home and life here special. There is a convenience to living on this edge of Ashford, of being close to the station, of being able to walk around the corner to a Tesco local, to a pub, to walk on a summers evening to the cinema or further into the town centre for a drink and a meal; these are things we often take for granted about life in a town. What we don't always expect is to be able to step from our home, head out onto a footpath and quickly find ourselves in countryside. There is a delight in a walk to the atmospheric church ruins by the lake at Eastwell. The renowned Eastwell Manor, a Champneys Hotel and Spa is just beyond, head there for afternoon tea, for a decadent meal, perhaps join as a member and enjoy the facilities. Boughton Lees is somewhere you may also find yourself, there to see a cricket match on the green in the summertime, enjoy a pint at the Flying Horse as part of a round trip walk. These are few of the things that life in this lovely home brings with it; you'll find more things to do when you live here and have a wonderful time in their discovery.
