4 bed detached house for sale

Pinesfield Lane, Trottiscliffe, West Malling, Kent ME19

*** guide price £1,100,000 - £1,200,000 ***

Occupying a stunning, South-facing plot measuring approximately 5.75 acres (tbv) is this four bedroom, detached chalet-style bungalow.

Offered to the market with the convenience of no forward chain.

Located in the sought after village of Trottiscliffe and boasting close to 2500sqft of versatile accommodation, the home is a fantastic opportunity for large, growing, or perhaps multi-generational families. It could also be ideal for equestrian use, with a number of horse shelters, previously located in the Paddock.

Subject to the necessary permissions, but with its numerous outbuildings, the property/plot also offers a wealth of potential for further extension/development (STPP). It should be noted, the property sits within the Greenbelt, but is not within a conservation area or aonb.

The property is accessible via a large, “in-and-out” driveway, on a slow, sweeping corner of Pinesfield Lane. Protected from the lane via mature trees and shrubs, there is plenty of privacy on offer.

There is ample off-road parking, with the driveway large enough to cater for 10-12 vehicles quite comfortably. Should it be the buyer’s preference, the front lawn could be extended upon, or utilised for yet more parking. For convenience (or for conversion potential STPP) – there is a large double garage, plus an adjoining workshop, with these combined totalling over 1000sqft in space. This offers great potential to become an Annex, for multi-generational families.

The property itself is set across two floors, with dormers to the first floor.

Downstairs, there is an entrance porch and hallway, which leads left, to a large master bedroom. This features fitted wardrobes, and a huge en-suite bathroom, with his-and-hers sinks, bath, separate shower cubicle and toilet.

There is an enormous, open, “L” shaped lounge-diner, which features a central chimney breast and a brick-built bar. This room offers double aspect and a total of five bay windows, for an abundance of natural light and views to the front & side gardens.

There is a separate fitted kitchen, large enough to accommodate a small dining/breakfast table. Adjoined to this is a more formal breakfast/dining room – meaning there is potential for a knock-through and more contemporary, open-plan living, with relative ease.

A downstairs cloakroom/WC completes the accommodation on this floor, again accessible via the entrance hall (which also offers a door to the rear garden).

Upstairs, the house includes three further bedrooms, each of which include eaves storage space. There are two spacious doubles, one of which features sliding doors to a stunning balcony, enjoying the views across the Southerly-facing grounds and beyond, to the North Downs and Kentish Countryside. A slightly smaller third bedroom, and a separate shower room, complete the accommodation on this floor.

Externally, the grounds are vast. To the immediate rear of the property is a large patio and seating area, beyond which there are steps down to a section laid-to-lawn, and a large Koi/fish pond. Here, there is great potential for a Swimming pool! The lawned area continues for hundreds of feet, before you reach a cluster of beautiful, mature trees and a small Orchard area.

The remainder of the plot is largely Paddock/Meadow, with some wildflower and some further established trees/foliage. The title also includes an area of woodland – see title plan within the photo reel, or video footage for more.

The property is connected to gas central heating and mains drainage.

The home boasts tranquility, privacy, seclusion and potential – all in a very unique but delightfully combined way.

Tucked away on the picturesque slopes of the North Downs, the charming village of Trottiscliffe offers an idyllic, semi-rural setting, combining peace and natural beauty with excellent accessibility. Located just a short distance from West Malling, residents benefit from a wide range of shops, restaurants and everyday amenities, while enjoying the tranquility of village life.

The area is particularly well connected by road, with convenient access to the M20 and M26, linking seamlessly to the M25, as well as onward routes via the A2 and M2, making travel towards London, the coast and beyond, straightforward. For commuters, mainline rail services are available from West Malling station, offering direct routes into London terminals (London Victoria, London Charing Cross, London Bridge) and the South East or Kent Coastline.

Trottiscliffe itself fosters a strong sense of community, centred around the well-regarded Trottiscliffe Church of England Primary School, alongside a selection of traditional village pubs to include Bowley's at The Plough and The George Inn. There is also an active, growing local tennis club. Surrounded by beautiful open countryside, including the nearby North Downs and Trosley Country Park, the village is ideal for those who enjoy outdoor living, with an abundance of scenic walks, riding routes and trails—perfect for families, dog owners and equestrian enthusiasts alike.

Neighbouring villages of Addington and Ryarsh are again popular choices for their traditional village pubs, countryside walks and community spirit.

Meopham and Wrotham are easily accessible for a wider range of primary and secondary schools. Sevenoaks and Maidstone Grammar schools are also both within a 30 minute drive.
