This attractive, detached period family home, surrounded by orchards and fields wherever you look, is situated in a wonderful, rural conservation area of outstanding natural beauty. The property is only a couple of minutes' walk, via the fields and the Stour River, to the village and Chartham station, where travel to Canterbury is only one stop and with easy access to London in under an hour. The owners have sensitively extended and modernised this property over the years while still retaining character features such as picture rails and fireplaces. This property is a stunning property, extremely well presented and just ready for new owners to walk straight into. From the moment you sweep into the vast gravel driveway, with room to park numerous vehicles, the first thing you notice is the charming exterior, in which original features have been preserved, maintaining the charm of the house. Through the solid oak front door, you walk into the entrance hallway, in which there is solid oak flooring. This is maintained throughout the majority of the ground floor, and is particularly noticeable when you go into the stunning family space that incorporates the large modern kitchen, dining and family areas. There is a rangemaster cooker inset into a brick surround, charming built in seats under a side window, a large central island/breakfast bar, with a solid oak worktop. The kitchen area incorporates a granite worktop and pale grey units housing an integrated fridge, freezer, wine cooler and dishwasher. The garden room style family area is light and bright with a vaulted ceiling, a brick surround with a ragstone hearth and a log burner. It has French doors on two sides leading out to the wraparound Indian sandstone terrace and lovely views across the garden and the countryside. There is a good sized dining area and an adjacent utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer as well as a stable door leading to the side garden. A well fitted study is ideal if you want to work from home and the charming snug with its painted floor and open fireplace is just the place to relax with a book or have fun with the children.

What the Owner says:
“We have lived here for the past seven years but we now feel that it is time for our next chapter. We have created a wonderful family home that has allowed us to spend invaluable quality time with our children. From our children's perspectives living at the back of the farm, that houses goats and sheep, and having the opportunity to own chickens has been a wonderful part of their upbringing. Having the side gate in the garden that leads you through the orchard to the Stour River is a massive advantage to living here, we often cycle or walk into Canterbury along the river which will bring you out at the scenic Westgate Gardens. The historic city of Canterbury has a plethora of ancient buildings, lovely pubs, restaurants and two theatres. There are also a variety of high street stores and independent shops, recreational facilities such as a golf course and sports centre, two mainline stations and excellent grammar schools as well as top class public schools and three universities. The location of the property is fantastic as you are only minutes away from the station, one stop to Canterbury west or direct to London in less than an hour but at the same time surrounded by the beautiful countryside.”
