Property description
4 Sophurst Lane is an older style semi-detached house that has been tastefully modernised and extended. The location of this property is quite idyllic with it's large south facing garden, it's rural views, in an elevated position on a country lane at the outskirts of picturesque Matfield village. In such a charming spot it would be easy to forget that you're only a short drive from the A21 and from the main line station at Paddock Wood. We recommend a viewing of this property to appreciate the well presented and deceptively spacious accommodation in such a sought after location.
