A private house for some years, Palm Tree offers a unique and characterful family home which pays homage to its former life, whilst also providing an environment suited to a modern lifestyle.
The ground floor accommodates some impressive living spaces with a particularly generous family room which retains a bar and, together with an adjoining ancillary kitchen, lends itself to sociable living and entertaining. In addition there is a sitting, dining room and generous study. These are loosely open plan but also provide distinct spaces in which to accommodate family life.
At the heart of the house sits the kitchen/breakfast room with a view to the front of the house. There is a useful utility and cloakroom as well as a cellar providing storage.
Four good bedrooms on the first floor are served by a family bathroom with a freestanding bath and a separate shower. A fifth ground floor bedroom is adjacent to a shower room, an arrangement which provides great flexibility for guest accommodation to perhaps arrange a portion of the house as an annexe if desired.
Palm Tree is approached via a five bar gate leading to a large gravel parking area to the front of the house. Wrapping around the front and side of the house is a generous terrace with views down the beautiful countryside of the Elham Valley. A super open timber gazebo provides an alfresco sitting and dining space. Sloping away from the house lawns are bordered by trees with views from the far margin over the valley landscape beyond.
Situated in the heart of the Elham Valley, the property is just two miles from the quintessential Kentish village of Elham with its pretty village square bordered by charming period properties. The village has a variety of amenities including a primary school, doctors surgery, public houses, a tearoom, newsagents and post office facilities.
The Cathedral city of Canterbury is to the north and offers a wealth of cultural and leisure amenities. Excellent schools in both the private and state sectors, include King’s School, St Edmund’s School and the Simon Langton grammar Schools.
Communication links are good with the A2, M2 and M20 giving direct access to the wider motorway network. Commuters are well served with high-speed trains from Canterbury West to London St Pancras and services to Victoria and Charing Cross from Canterbury East.

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
