OverviewA Move In Ready Family Home Where Weekday Mornings Will Be A Breeze. Whether you’re commuting into London or getting the kids off to school, this spacious 1930’s detached is in such a handy location, only a short walk to the station, schools and shops.

If you’re looking for a spacious family home in a convenient location, 45 Lambarde Road is hard to beat.

It’s only a 2 minute drive or a 7 minute walk to the station. You could time your early morning commute to perfection and be stepping onto the platform in London in around half an hour (the shortest journey time to London Bridge is 22 mins).

And it will be a similar stress free situation when it comes to getting the kids off to school. Sevenoaks Primary School is rated “Good” by Ofsted and is only 3 minutes in the car or a pleasant 10 minute walk away.

Older kids have a little further to travel but there’s a choice of “Good” or “Outstanding” schools in the town (all within walking distance), with an even greater choice in nearby Tonbridge or Orpington.

45 Lambarde Road is an attractive 1930s family home, with a beautiful wisteria adorning the porch and traditional tile cladding on the first floor.

Step inside and you’ll immediately appreciate the care and attention that has gone into updating this wonderful family home.

The current owners have lived here for over 20 years and have thoughtfully enhanced the property, including side and rear extensions, a loft conversion and the installation of double-glazed windows and cavity wall insulation.

The wide and welcoming entrance hall leads to a downstairs w/c, the bay fronted sitting room and the spacious kitchen / diner at the rear.

The open plan kitchen / diner is sure to be the social hub of the home, where everyone gets together – either grabbing a quick slice of toast in the morning or catching up at the end of a busy day.

There’s plenty of storage space in the modern fitted units and room for a freestanding dishwasher, washing machine and an American-style fridge/freezer.

If the kitchen / diner is where everyone spends time together, the sitting room is somewhere quiet where you can escape to relax by the open fire.

If you’re fond of throwing a summer party the dining area opens up to the back garden through French doors, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor.

The garden has something for everyone, with a lawn for the kids to play on, a covered decking area for the grown ups and mature trees and shrubs providing privacy.

There’s a study next to the dining room, offering direct access to both the garden and garage. This versatile room could easily be adapted to suit your family’s needs, whether it be a home office, playroom, or an additional reception room.

There are four bedrooms and the stylish family bathroom on the first floor.

The spacious master bedroom is something special, benefiting from a dressing room and an ensuite bathroom, complete with a corner bath.

The second floor has a generous fifth bedroom, complete with an ensuite shower room and built-in wardrobes. You’ll also find ample eaves storage, perfect for keeping those occasional-use items tucked away.

The property is practical too. At the top of the stairs, a walk-in, extensively boarded loft area offers even more storage space. And in addition to the built-in single garage (with a Hormann electric door) and parking on the drive for a couple of cars, a handy garden shed provides storage for garden tools and equipment.

There is convenient access to the garden on both sides of the house, so you won’t have to traipse through with your grass cuttings.

Lambarde Road is in a sought-after residential location, only a short walk from the station and the shops.

For those who enjoy spending time outdoors, Sevenoaks Wildlife Reserve is only a 12 minute walk away.

Sevenoaks High Street is just under a mile away, with a wide range of independent and high street shops, including Waitrose and M&S, as well as cafes, restaurants, pubs and The Stag theatre/cinema.

Sevenoaks offers a wealth of leisure facilities, including Sevenoaks Leisure Centre and swimming pool, Knole Park, Wildernesse and Knole golf courses.

For those who need to travel further afield, it’s only 3 miles from the M25/M26, providing easy access to Gatwick and Heathrow, the Channel Tunnel and Bluewater.

This spacious and versatile 1930’s property will be perfect if you’re looking for somewhere that will allow you to move in and make yourselves at home.

It’s in a really handy location for the station, the shops and the local schools, meaning you’ll be able to spend more time enjoying your new home.

I’m expecting plenty of interest so call to arrange a viewing.
