Read moreThe Whinnies is a well presented four bedroom detached family home, occupying a convenient central position in the heart of Hartley village. Refurbished in recent years, the property offers bright, neutrally decorated accommodation throughout, complemented by contemporary kitchen and bathroom fittings, a generous driveway, integral garage and an attractive wraparound walled garden.
The spacious entrance hall creates a welcoming first impression and provides internal access to the integral garage. The kitchen/breakfast room has been stylishly refitted with an extensive range of soft grey Shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and integrated appliances, with plenty of space for informal dining. The room is particularly light and has a smart tiled floor which continues the clean, contemporary feel of the refurbishment.
Positioned to the rear is the generous sitting room, featuring wood-effect flooring, an attractive fireplace and glazed French doors opening directly onto the garden. A separate second reception room provides excellent flexibility as a formal dining room, home office or family room, while a modern ground floor cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.
Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to four bedrooms, comprising three doubles and a good-sized single. The principal bedroom benefits from a stylish contemporary en suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by an impressive modern family bathroom with bath and separate shower facilities. Neutral carpeting and decoration throughout the first floor make the property ready for a new owner to furnish to their own taste.
Externally, the property is set well back from the road behind an extensive block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the integral garage. The established frontage gives the house an attractive approach, while to the rear and side is a secluded wraparound walled garden, predominantly laid to lawn with paved terrace areas providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.
Combining a central village location with recently refurbished accommodation, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous parking, integral garage and a private garden, The Whinnies offers an excellent opportunity for those seeking a well-appointed family home in this popular North West Kent village. Internal viewing is highly recommended.
This home enjoys a particularly convenient position within Hartley, with local shops and village amenities readily accessible. Longfield is also within easy reach, offering a wider selection of shops and services together with mainline rail connections to London Victoria. Families are well catered for by local primary schooling, with a choice of secondary and grammar schools available in the wider Dartford and Gravesend areas. Road links are also excellent, with convenient access towards the A2, M25, Bluewater and Ebbsfleet International.
