New family homes offer light and space  Demand for spacious family homes, well located for top schools and fast commuting to London is being met by a Kent developer in one of Bickley’s most established sought-after roads.

Rivendell is a one-off, bespoke five bedroom detached family house with an above average 4,300 square footage, built by local developer Red Admiral Homes in the heart of St George’s Parish, Bickley. Boasting three reception rooms on the ground floor including a 30 ft kitchen diner fitted with a renowned Stoneham kitchen, the property offers the highest level of contemporary interior style and designer specification.

Light cascades into the property from the entrance hall’s dramatic double height arts and crafts style leaded window, behind the oak staircase rising to the first floor. Four double bedrooms, two en-suite, and a further family bathroom lead from the impressively proportioned first floor landing. The master bedroom also has the benefit of a dressing room.

The whole of the second floor is dedicated to a 400 sq ft fifth bedroom with its own separate bathroom and large storeroom with views over the tree-lined neighbourhood, perfect for teenagers or parents wanting their own private space. Technology is at the forefront with CAT 5 cabling and wiring for Sky HD throughout. Under floor heating is featured across the ground and first floors.

Martyn Sellick, Director Red Admiral Homes, comments:

“We wanted to create a family house that really did have the wow factor which didn’t compromise on space or design and has plenty of natural daylight. Today’s family buyers are looking for a truly contemporary home that can meet all their needs as they grow, preferably set within an established and well respected neighbourhood, and we designed Rivendell with this in mind.”

The property is approached via discreet electronically controlled gates opening on to a bonded gravel drive and pathways to the double garage and main entrance. The wrap around garden has secure rear access from both sides of the house and is a gardener’s paradise with mature trees, shrubs and hedges. Bickley mainline station is within a 5 minute walk with trains to Victoria and the City taking 30 minutes. There are also several high achieving schools from both the private and state sector, including Bickley Park Primary, Bromley High and Bullers Wood, all within walking distance.

Oak flooring, Porcelanosa tiles and neutral wool carpets complement the neutral interior design, which is ready for the new owners to adapt to their own individual tastes. Rivendell is priced at £1,450,000. For further details see Redamiralhomes.com.
