5 bedroom detached house for sale

An opportunity to acquire a magnificent period house situated in an idyllic rural village within close proximity of Canterbury (12.8 miles). Shepherdswell benefits from a highly regarded primary school, convenience store, public house, village hall and mainline railway station (0.4 miles).

Sibertswold Place is Grade II listed and believed to date in part to the 18th Century, with some later additions. The house would now benefit from some updating and improvement and retains many original features including inglenook fireplaces and exposed timbers.

A large double cellar spans the width of main house, and attached to the house there is a seperate annexe with sitting room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.

Externally the generous rear garden incorporates a lawned area and a tennis court, and to the front of the property a driveway provides off road parking for several vehicles.
