A substantial Victorian property situated in a sought-after location of The Mall and London Road just minutes from Faversham train station with its high speed links to London. Willowmore offers over 2500 sq.ft of accommodation that is flourishing with period features such as original fireplaces, stripped floorboards, and stunning ceiling cornicing. Willowmore was once used as a popular Bed & Breakfast due to its expanse of bedrooms and bathrooms, it now offers the potential to make further enhancements and embrace its spacious and versatile configuration.
A stained glass Victorian front door welcomes you into a stunning entrance hall with huge high ceilings, an archway with intricate corbels, and exposed floorboards. To the right one will find a formal sitting room which has a feeling of grandeur with its open fireplace, ornate ceiling rose, original cornicing and bay window. First impressions set the scene for the rest of the house as these period features flourish throughout.
There is another reception room that benefits from floor to ceiling French doors that lead to the veranda on the east side of the house. It is currently used as the childrens music and playroom but could equally become a formal dining room or be integrated with the current kitchen/diner.
Beyond the hallway there is a delightful open plan family room with double doors to the garden. The kitchen has an array of traditional style units, and an island which sits central and integrates a double oven and hob. Several original Victorian cupboards and stylish wood panelling give the room character and charm.
There is a convenient utility room with WC which sits adjacent to kitchen/diner and offers access to the garden.
The basement with a reasonable amount of head height is accessed from the hallway, this offers ideal storage, or could be converted if further accommodation was required
A grand staircase with beautiful wooden spindles leads to the first floor where one will find three generously proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom is particularly large with a beautiful bay window, striking fireplace with marble surround and a fitted wardrobe.
To the second floor there are a further three bedrooms and shower room, this floor would be ideal for older children wanting more independence.
OUTSIDE:
A Victorian chequered garden path takes you to the front door, and to the right one will find a garden that leads you round to the side of the house.
Several sets of French doors lead onto a chequered patio which sits beneath an enchanting veranda which wraps around the house. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with several established shrubs and trees. The East side of the garden measures approx. 80ft long and is home to a beautiful Magnolia and Olive tree.
