The property further benefits from five bedrooms, two modern bath/shower rooms, an attractive rear garden and ample driveway parking. Weald village has a church, primary school, public house and restaurant, a community store, garage, hairdresser, a village green and village hall.

The double aspect open plan sitting/dining room is of excellent proportions with a fireplace inset with a wood burning stove and adjoins a versatile family room with two roof lanterns and bi-fold doors opening to the rear terrace.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, some integral appliances and space for a fridge freezer. A door provides access to outside.

Completing this floor is a study, which could be utilised as a bedroom if needed. There is an adjoining utility room with space for appliances and fitted shelving.

Arranged over the first floor are four bedrooms, one with a well-appointed en suite bathroom and three with fitted wardrobes, and a modern shower room.

The entire loft is fully boarded and provides excellent storage space.

The attractive rear garden features an expansive paved terrace, ideal for al fresco entertaining, with a seating area flanked by a series of raised beds. A set of steps leads to a level area of lawn, bordered by a variety of shrubs and deciduous trees, with close board fencing and mature conifers to the boundaries, providing privacy. A shed provides useful storage and has power connected.

To the front, a paved driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles and there are pedestrian gates to either side of the property, allowing access to the rear garden. Several climbing shrubs adorn the front elevations and there is established laurel hedging to the boundaries.
