Palace View is a beautifully presented modern country residence offering an exceptional blend of privacy, security, and impressive scale. Set within approximately 3.9 acres of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) on the prestigious Ashen Grove Road, the property is approached via electric security gates. These open onto a sweeping driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles, leading to the front of the house and a substantial double garage with electric doors. A comprehensive CCTV system is installed, ensuring complete peace of mind and an enhanced sense of security.

Inside, the home offers an instantly warm and welcoming ambience. The generous L-shaped entrance hallway features elegant oak flooring and rich furnishings, with a staircase immediately to the left, alongside a discreet WC and storage cupboard to the right. Moving further into the property, the hallway provides seamless access to the lounge, kitchen, dedicated home office, formal dining room, and a highly convenient ground-floor bedroom suite.

Lounge: The lounge is an exceptionally spacious room, serving as the perfect hub for family life and relaxation. It is bathed in natural light courtesy of triple-aspect windows that frame vistas of the vast gardens to the side and rear. Despite its generous proportions, a feature log burner and an ornate radiator ensure the room retains a cosy, intimate feel that can often be lost in properties of this scale.

Kitchen: The kitchen beautifully balances a classic country aesthetic with the functionality of modern high-end appliances and fittings. Worksurface and cupboard space are plentiful, complemented by a substantial central island that offers an adaptable additional workspace for busy family mornings or social gatherings. A large rear window floods the room with light and offers a beautiful, uninterrupted outlook over the patio, expansive lawns, and private woodland beyond. Positioned just to the left is a highly practical utility room with dedicated laundry facilities, while a door to the right provides direct access to the garden.

Office: The home office is a fully operational, productive space in constant use. Generously proportioned, it comfortably accommodates two full-sized desks, making it ideal for remote working. The space benefits from a robust and powerful hardwired internet connection (subject to verification).

Dining Room: The opulent dining room is both grand and light, featuring dual-aspect windows that overlook the rear grounds. It offers more than enough scale to comfortably house an eight-seater dining table while maintaining excellent flow and room to manoeuvre during formal dinner parties.

Ground Floor Bedroom: The ground-floor bedroom is an excellent guest or multi-generational suite, offering ample space for a double bed and featuring a large window to the right that fills the room with morning light. It is served by a generous en-suite shower room with a double shower enclosure.

Master Bedroom: Situated at the top of the stairs to the right, the master bedroom feels instantly spacious and airy, enhanced by an unobstructed front-facing window. Sophisticated built-in wardrobes and storage units provide abundant wardrobe space, and the room is complemented by a contemporary en-suite featuring a double shower.

Bedroom: Located directly off the main landing, this bedroom easily accommodates a double bed and enjoys elevated views across the rear acreage. It further benefits from two built-in storage cupboards.

Bedroom: The first room to the left at the top of the stairs is another well-proportioned double bedroom, currently styled as a charming childrens room. It offers ample storage, overlooks the front aspect, and provides a highly flexible space.

Family Bathroom: Upon entering, the eye is instantly drawn to the striking freestanding bath that anchors the room. Exceptionally deep and filled via a freestanding waterfall tap, it offers a luxurious, spa-like environment for relaxation. The bathroom also features a double shower, a freestanding vanity unit with a contemporary inset sink, and full tiling, creating a clean, modern space that effortlessly accommodates a busy household.

Garage: A substantial double garage equipped with individual electric doors for additional security and ease of access. To the rear, a staircase ascends to a fully boarded second floor, providing exceptional secondary storage space.

Outbuildings: Three principal timber outbuildings are positioned to the sides and rear of the plot, offering incredible versatility:

* The Shed: A large, practical timber structure designed specifically to house small agricultural machinery and garden equipment.
* The Garden Bar: Currently configured as an exceptional outdoor entertainment lodge, complete with a fitted bar, full-sized snooker table, and a dedicated karaoke zone. Benefiting from full mains power and water, this insulated timber building could easily be repurposed into a premier home gym. A front terrace provides the perfect spot to sit back and admire the rear grounds.
* The Potential Annexe: An impressive L-shaped timber building extending to approximately 500 sq. ft., including a bedroom, kitchen, and two bathrooms, complete with its own private decked seating terrace. To be formally approved as an annexe, the necessary consents will need to be obtained and obtainable.

Location & Commuter Links: Palace View enjoys a highly desirable semi-rural position on Ashen Grove Road within the exclusive Sevenoaks borders. This coveted setting offers the perfect balance of idyllic countryside living—surrounded by the protected woodlands and rolling hills of the Kent Downs—while remaining remarkably well-connected to the vibrant town of Sevenoaks, with its world-class schooling, boutique shopping, and fine dining.

For the commuter, transport links are exceptional:
* By Rail: Sevenoaks mainline station is just a short drive away, offering fast, direct services into London Bridge (approx. 22 minutes), London Waterloo East, and London Charing Cross (approx. 35 minutes). Nearby Borough Green & Wrotham station also provides direct links to London Victoria.
* By Road: The property sits within easy reach of the M20 (Junction 2) and the M26, connecting seamlessly to the M25 network, Gatwick and Heathrow airports, and the Kent coast.
