Out Elmstead Lane, Kent

Tucked along a quiet lane on the edge of Barham, this detached three bedroom bungalow has been updated throughout to offer a smart, comfortable home in a pleasant village setting. The property comprises an entrance hall leading to a double-aspect, L-shaped sitting room, a well-fitted modern kitchen with dining area, three good-sized bedrooms, and a contemporary family bathroom. Outside, a brick block driveway provides generous off-road parking and access to a detached garage, flanked by a neat lawned front garden with planted borders.
