  • Dreambark Cottage Bexon Lane | Bredgar | Sittingbourne | ME9 8HB Seller Insight
    Dreambark Cottage Bexon Lane | Bredgar | Sittingbourne | ME9 8HB Seller Insight Situated in the centre of the delightful village of Bredgar is Dreambark, a very attractive and extremely well-appointed family home that was beautifully designed and built by the current owners. “My husband built this house twenty-three years ago,” says the owner. “He’d always wanted to build his own home from scratch, and when he came across this superb plot of land in this lovely location, everything fell into place.” “Previously we were living in Sittingbourne, but we used to come over to Bredgar to visit the Sun Inn, which is a lovely little gastro pub that serves delicious food, and it was during those visits that we fell in love with the village. It’s such a charming place with an active church, a lovely little primary school and right in the centre is a really pretty duck pond. Our house is situated in the heart of the village, so everything is within walking distance, but when we come home and shut the gates we feel a million miles from everything.” “During the time that we’ve been here, my husband has added a total of five extensions to the house so it’s now a really spacious family home. We have a huge open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, which is the real heart of the home, an exceptionally spacious sitting room and the old dining room has been converted into a very large office, so it’s ideal for anyone who needs to work from home.
