6 bedroom detached house for sale
Summary
St. Andrews is an exceptionally deceptive and well-proportioned detached family house offering the flexibility afforded by an annexe for multi generational living, or to incorporate into additional accommodation for a larger family home, or potential for extra income as an 'air b n b' or for working from home. Set on a generous plot, approximately 2 acres (tbv) of mature, easily maintained gardens, with generous off road parking, a detached brick garage and various outbuildings. The views to the rear are far reaching and absolutely stunning with a southerly aspect. Set within the favoured Cranbrook School Catchment Area, internal viewing is highly recommended in order to appreciate exactly what is being offered.
Situation
Occupying a fabulous 'plot', the gardens and grounds are certainly a feature of this lovely home. The rear is south facing and takes advantage of the most stunning far reaching views. Located in a sought after location on the outskirts of the Moor area of Hawkhurst with easy access of the popular and bustling village centre which is centred around the historic Colonnade of shops offering a comprehensive range of facilities and amenities including a Waitrose and Tesco, a Kino digital cinema and a variety of schooling.

There is easy access to major road networks including the A21 giving access to the M25 for Gatwick and Heathrow airports, and the M20 to Dover and Ashford International station.

There are many local attractions including Bedgebury Pinetum, Bewl Water, numerous vineyards, castles and woodland walks.
