A fabulous 6/7 bedroom house set in approx. two acres in a fantastic, accessible location near the town of Swanley, with lovely gardens, stables, paddocks and various outbuildings, ideally located for access to the M25 and Central London 

Whilst it could be used as a single dwelling to accommodate a large family, the interconnected main house and large annexe are currently used by a multi-generation family. It provides a perfect set-up for an equestrian family, with pasture paddocks, two stables and a variety of outbuildings. The current owners have developed the beautiful gardens which are west-facing and provide plenty of space for relaxing and entertaining.

The property is also very eco-friendly, having an eco-biomass boiler along with solar PV panels that benefit from a specialist tariff until 2034, providing a combined income of  approx. £1,000 a year and an EPC rating of B.

The local countryside offers numerous bridleways, footpaths and cycle paths right on the doorstep and whilst the property enjoys an extremely rural setting it is only three miles from junction 3 of the M25. 

Swanley has a range of local amenities including a doctor surgery, dentist, post office, and supermarkets, as well as a mainline rail station on the London Victoria line, which takes about half an hour.
