Set within roughly half an acre of mature, well-kept grounds, Fieldfares is an unusually spacious single-storey home for buyers seeking substantial one-level living. The U-shaped layout creates natural separation between living and sleeping wings: a large central hall leads to an impressive sitting room, formal dining room and study, while four good-sized bedrooms sit in a quieter wing. Large picture windows and broad horizontal glazing frame long countryside views and flood the principal rooms with light.
Outside, gated parking, two garages, a workshop, greenhouse and a private swimming pool add strong practical and leisure appeal. The extensive wrap-around gardens and central courtyard give scope for outdoor entertaining, horticulture or garden redesign. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting home working and connectivity in this peaceful, low-crime hamlet setting.
The house is mid-century in style with traditional finishes throughout. Many rooms are generously proportioned, but the interior is dated in places — the kitchen and bathrooms retain older fittings and will suit buyers prepared to modernise. There is clear potential to reconfigure or update the footprint to create a contemporary family home, subject to planning and retention of single-storey living if preferred.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold with no flood risk, but council tax is described as quite expensive. Its rural location offers privacy and strong village amenities close by, with commuter rail links from nearby Staplehurst and Marden and several well-regarded schools within reach. This home will suit families or buyers seeking a characterful bungalow with large gardens and scope to add value through sympathetic modernisation.
