About this property

  • Ormonde is a deceptively substantial, detached family home that offers a spacious and flexible layout that can be arranged to suit individual needs.

    The very generous ground floor offers reception space that can be configured to suit individual needs. Currently Ormonde is arranged to provide a large, more informal sitting room/games room to the front of the house. There is an impressive drawing room to the rear, with striking feature fireplace and ample room for a more formal dining area, the drawing room overlooks and opens onto the terraces and gardens beyond via sliding doors and the adjoining conservatory.

    The stylish and modern kitchen/breakfast room also opens directly onto a brick-paved terrace and the garden beyond and is ideal for more informal entertaining; the wall and floor mounted units and worktops provide both good storage and preparation space, together with range of integrated appliances.

    The first floor is home to a spacious landing leading to the principal bedroom with bank of fitted wardrobes and well-appointed ensuite. The second bedroom houses a sink and shower cubicle, with two further bedrooms and a separate family bathroom.

    Outside - The house benefits from a generous and established garden which is ideal for outdoor entertaining and child's play.

    Ormonde is approached via a driveway (a small section of which is shared at the roadside with the neighbouring property) providing parking for a number of vehicles in addition to the integral double garaging.

    Services: Mains Electricity, water and drainage. Private LPG tank gas supply.

Ormonde provides what so many of us want, village life with easy access to nearby towns and amenities. I love that you can stroll into Matfield or nearby Brenchley and enjoy the immediate access to the surrounding countryside but you have choice of nearby towns when you need them. The best of both worlds.
