Description
Nestled within the charming hamlet of Bilsington, 'Chestnut Lodge' is a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached cottage which offers a rare opportunity to enjoy spacious, modern living with outstanding countryside views. Extensively modernised and thoughtfully extended with energy efficiency at the forefront, the property boasts a harmonious blend of contemporary comfort and traditional character. The generous living accommodation includes a welcoming sitting room, a versatile dining area, and a superb kitchen/breakfast room, perfect for family gatherings or entertaining guests. The kitchen is complemented by an adjoining laundry room and a practical cellar, providing ample storage and functionality. The first floor features a principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room, three further well-proportioned bedrooms, and a stylish family bathroom, while an additional ground floor shower room offers further convenience. Energy-conscious buyers will appreciate the Froling P4 pellet boiler, solar panels (discreetly positioned), and a Briggs & Stratton generator, ensuring both sustainability and peace of mind. In a location that provides excellent access to Ashford, Hamstreet, Romney Marsh, and Hythe, making it ideally situated for both commuting and leisure.
The outside space is equally impressive, beginning with a welcoming front garden that can be accessed via the property’s driveway or through a gated pedestrian entrance. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and is attractively enclosed by a variety of established shrubs and plants, creating a sense of privacy and kerb appeal. Gated side access leads to the rear garden, where a large patio area provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxation. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and is enhanced by a wide selection of mature fruit trees, shrubs, and colourful flower borders, offering a tranquil backdrop and seasonal interest throughout the year. To the rear left of the garden, the solar panels are discreetly screened by mature hedging, while the LPG Briggs & Stratton generator is neatly enclosed by picket fencing. A useful workshop, formerly a garage and measuring approximately 20'2" x 9'11", is located within the garden and houses the Froling P4 fully automated wood pellet boiler and its associated pellet storage. Additional features include gated driveway parking for two or more vehicles and a double garage (measuring 19'5" x 18'1") with two double doors to the front, a side window, and a personal door leading to the rear garden.
