Property description & features

  • In Excess of 8 Acres
  • Annex
  • In-ground Swimming Pool
  • Offering a Wealth of Potential
Found in the village of Staple is Piglet Place, a timber framed and weather boarded cottage which stands on a large plot in excess of 8 acres, surrounded by farmland. The main cottage has two bedrooms; one with an en-suite shower room, a family bathroom, lounge and kitchen/diner. There is also an annex which has been used as a games room but could provide a lounge/bedroom, shower room and kitchen/diner with additional utility/storage area. In addition, there is a large workshop attached to the cottage. Externally there is a driveway with off street parking. To the rear there is an in-ground swimming pool with solar heating and surrounded by patio, ideal for entertaining. The garden has a lawned area and then leads out to extensive woodland. The property offers a wealth of potential and is ideal for reconfiguration and extension, subject to the necessary planning consents.

N.B. There is electric heating. Gas is available in the road. There is an overage on the land for any future development at 50% of the value at the time planning is passed for a period of 50 years. Solicitors will confirm this. There is also currently a covenant preventing development in the woodland.

Staple is a delightful village with its own village hall, public house and historic church. The nearby villages of Ash and Wingham provide a variety of amenities and facilities and the Cathedral city of Canterbury is approximately 10 miles away where you will find a wide variety of shopping, dining and cultural facilities, as well as numerous leisure and sporting amenities. Canterbury also has a high-speed rail service to London St. Pancras in under an hour. In the other direction is the quaint Cinque port town of Sandwich with its boutique shops, bars and restaurants and home to Royal St. Georges Golf course which has been home to the British open on a number of occasions.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
