About this home

It is unusual to find a property of such generous proportions in Ashford, complemented by a full acre of land. -- Greg Wood, Director

#TheGardenOfEngland

A standalone and individual home of substantial proportions, occupying an unusually central yet private position within Ashford.

3200 Sq Ft of accommodation plus double garage.

Sold with no onward chain.

The Bamboos enjoys a terrific location at the top end of Cemetery Lane, accessed from the road leading to Longacres Garden Centre. The property is set back from the lane and surrounded by mature gardens to both the front and rear, creating a wonderfully private setting despite its convenient location. Inside, the house provides spacious accommodation arranged over two floors, with several standout features. These include a recently fitted kitchen, a particularly well-proportioned sitting room arranged over split levels and a large gallery landing, which adds considerably to the sense of space. Outside, the plantsman's garden has been carefully curated over the last 20 years to an exceptional standard. Mature trees, a fabulous garden pond and thoughtfully planned planting combine to create a beautifully established garden which has now reached a level of maturity for the new owners to simply enjoy and maintain. The location is another significant attraction. Ashford town centre is within easy reach by car and, indeed, on foot, with the town providing extensive shopping and leisure facilities together with Ashford International Station, offering high-speed rail services to London. The M20 is also only a couple of miles away at Junction 9. Closer still, the Eureka Leisure Park is within walking distance and provides Cineworld cinema, restaurants and Dobbies Garden Centre, amongst other facilities. Ashford and the surrounding area also offer an excellent choice of schools, including numerous state and independent options.
