Tudor BungalowBelinda fell in love with Tudor Bungalow because of the outstanding views and the countryside location. “The setting of Tudor Bungalow is extremely peaceful and relaxing. It has been a delightful place to live,” explains Belinda.

“The main garden is one of my favourite features of the property. It generously spans the width of the property with mature trees and hedgerow and overlooks the countryside. It is perfect for relaxing in the afternoon and taking in the evening sun as it sets in full view,” says Belinda. “The property is also slightly elevated providing the porch with views over the fields. There is a smaller garden to the rear of the property with a greenhouse and shed, which is perfect for storing tools, keeping the grounds tidy,” says Belinda. “The garden is quite large which makes for a fantastic setting for entertaining guests at a barbeque and letting children roam wild.”

“We are very lucky in that the bedrooms and the living room have large, full width windows that enable you to enjoy the exceptional panoramic windows views of the garden and beyond. I will miss waking up to these views and unwinding with a cup of tea at the end of the day,” explains Belinda. “Because of the fabulously large window, the property is very bright, even in winter.”

“In the 7 years that I have lived here, we have fitted a new boiler system, a new bathroom, and a complete electrical rewire of the house and garage,” explains Belinda. “The house has also had a new front porch fitted, as well as an en-suite bathroom, and an on-going internal decoration,” says Belinda.

“The area is fantastic for relocating families as there are numerous reputable schools such as Cranbrook Grammar School and various preparatory and secondary schools. The area is also very popular with commuters as both Staplehurst and Etchingham Train Stations provide direct train services to London Charing Cross in approximately one hour,” says Belinda. “Of course there are also plenty of beautiful attractions such as country walks, heritage sites, a beach and plenty of shops.”*
