Set on a large plot at the end of a no-through road, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers versatile living across nearly 2,500 sq ft. The ground floor delivers a generous kitchen/dining space with solid oak cabinetry and granite worktops, several reception rooms including a conservatory, and convenient internal access to a double integral garage. Upstairs the principal suite and four further doubles provide well-proportioned family accommodation.
The location is a key draw: close to Riverhead village amenities, in the Amherst School catchment and within easy reach of Sevenoaks station (around 1 mile via footpath). Low local crime, abundant green leisure options nearby and excellent mobile signal add everyday convenience for families and professionals commuting to London.
Buyers should note this is a 1960s/70s construction with double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls currently assumed to have no insulation. The house presents clear opportunity for energy-efficiency upgrades and cosmetic modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. Broadband speeds are slow locally and council tax is in the upper band (Band G), factors to weigh for working-from-home or high-usage households.
Overall this property suits a family seeking space, good school links and transport connections, or a buyer prepared to invest in targeted refurbishment to improve energy performance and update interior finishes. The large garden, driveway parking and EV charging point are practical benefits for modern family life.
