Fireplaces, sash windows and exposed floorboards give a homely feel to this tall property, which has exceptional accommodation on five levels.

It is in a conservation area in the heart of Maidstone and has a walled back garden with large decked seating area and lawn.

The ground floor has a lounge with feature window to the front and a well fitted kitchen and breakfast room with door to the back garden.

There is also a formal dining room herewith original built-in cupboards. A cloakroom is also on this floor.

On the first floor is a further large reception room, at present used as a drawing room, together with the family bathroom with roll-top bath and a shower room. The four double bedrooms are on the second and third floors.

The first floor drawing room would also make an excellent fifth bedroom, if required.

On the lower ground floor is an 18ft office space, and a large utility room.

The house is in a central spot in Bedford Place, which is close to the A20 and Maidstone West station.

Tom Botting, senior branch manager, at estate agent Bairstow Eves, Maidstone, said: “A viewing is pivotal to appreciate this house fully. The sheer scale and grandeur of a home of this type must be experienced in person.”
