4 bed detached house for sale

Church Wood Close, Rough Common CT2

A superb four-bedroom detached family home with driveway parking and a garage, offered to the market with no forward chain. Occupying a peaceful position within a quiet cul-de-sac, the property enjoys delightful rear views across the recreation field behind.

Situated in the highly sought-after village of Rough Common, this is an ideal setting for families, with a number of highly regarded schools nearby including Blean Primary School, rated Outstanding' by Ofsted, together with Kent College Junior and Senior Schools and St Edmund's School.

The property offers bright and spacious accommodation throughout, thoughtfully arranged and well suited to modern family living. While it has clearly been lovingly maintained over the years, there is now scope for some cosmetic updating in places, presenting an exciting opportunity for a new owner to personalise the space and create a home truly their own.

Set back from the road behind an attractive front garden, the property benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking and leading to a good-sized garage. The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, immediately giving a sense of the generous proportions found throughout the home. From here, there is access to a useful downstairs WC, while doors lead through to the kitchen/breakfast room and the sitting room beyond.

The kitchen/breakfast room is particularly generous in size and fitted with a range of shaker-style units offering ample storage. There is space for a range of freestanding appliances, including a dishwasher, while a fitted breakfast table provides an ideal spot for casual dining or socialising whilst cooking. A door gives convenient side access to the driveway.

To the rear, the sitting room is a wonderfully bright and airy space, enhanced by two sets of sliding glass doors which flood the room with natural light and open directly onto the garden. The room is comfortably proportioned, with ample space for both seating and dining areas, making it ideal for entertaining and everyday family life.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms, with even the smallest comfortably accommodating a small double bed, ideal for growing families. The two largest bedrooms to the rear enjoy lovely open views across the recreation field, while one benefits from a range of fitted furniture including wardrobes, drawers and a dressing table.

The family bathroom is a good size and fitted with a suite comprising a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC.

Outside:

Outside, the private south-west facing rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubs, trees and established planting, creating a wonderfully secluded space in which to relax and unwind. A side gate provides convenient access, while mature hedging and fencing combine to offer a high degree of privacy and a peaceful setting throughout.
