4 Bedroom Detached House

Set along Ruins Barn Road in the sought-after village of Tunstall, this four-bedroom semi-detached home offers a brilliant balance of family space, a semi-rural setting and the flexibility to adapt as life changes.

A multi-car driveway provides plenty of off-road parking before you step inside to the hallway, where custom joinery is one of several thoughtful touches found throughout the home.

Straight ahead sits the cottage-style kitchen, a warm and characterful space with bi-fold doors opening directly onto the rear garden. In the warmer months, these can be opened up to connect the house with the patio and garden beyond, ideal for family life, whether the children are playing outside while you’re cooking or friends are gathered for a summer BBQ.
Towards the rear of the ground floor there is also a useful WC and additional storage.

To the right, the main living accommodation is wonderfully light, with a bay window allowing natural light to fill the space while enjoying a leafy outlook across the road.

One of the real strengths of the ground floor is just how versatile it is having been extended.

There is plenty of room to create a sociable lounge and dining area, with the dining table positioned towards the rear doors and garden, or you could use the front reception as a separate dining room. Equally, it would make a lovely snug, playroom or second sitting room, giving a growing family the freedom to use the space in a way that works for them.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms alongside a fourth room which would work perfectly as a nursery, guest bedroom or dedicated home office. For anyone regularly working from home, it provides the opportunity to create a proper workspace without sacrificing the dining table or taking over one of the main bedrooms.
The family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

But arguably the real heart of this home is outside.

The rear garden begins with a patio area providing plenty of room for outdoor furniture and summer dining before opening onto a generous grassed area. There is proper space here for children (and maybe the dog!) to get outside and play, whether that means a trampoline, football goals, a paddling pool or simply room to run around, while still leaving plenty of garden for the adults to enjoy.

A pathway runs alongside towards a substantial garage and workshop at the bottom of the garden, complete with an additional room above.

It is a fantastic space as it stands, particularly for anyone needing a workshop, hobby area or additional storage, but it also opens up some exciting possibilities. The room above could become a separate home office, games room, teenage den or entertainment space, giving you somewhere completely removed from the main house while still being just a few steps from the back door. Subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents, buyers may also wish to explore its potential for further conversion or ancillary accommodation.

The setting makes the home particularly appealing for families who want a little more breathing space without feeling cut off. Tunstall has a semi-rural, village feel while Sittingbourne town centre, its amenities and railway station are only a short distance away.
Families are well served for schooling too, with Tunstall Church of England Primary School within the village and a wider choice of primary and secondary schools in and around Sittingbourne, including Fulston Manor School, Highsted Grammar School and Borden Grammar School.

The neighbouring villages of Rodmersham, Borden and Bredgar are also just a short drive away, putting some of Kent's lovely village surroundings and countryside within easy reach.

With four bedrooms, flexible reception space, a generous garden, extensive parking and that substantial garage/workshop, this is a home that has been set up for the realities of family life, with room for the children to play, somewhere to work from home and plenty of space to grow into.
