Property description & features

  • Tenure: Share of freehold (974 years remaining)
Share of Freehold and no onward chain

Set within the grounds of Chilham Castle Estate, Dovecote Court is a small and exclusive mews-style development comprising a mere handful of individual properties arranged around a gated courtyard setting, centred around a beautiful dovecote.

Effectively a maisonette, you enter into the apartment via its own ground floor entrance and a short flight of stairs leads up to the accommodation, which is then on the one level.

From its elevated position, there are countryside views and a pretty outlook across the dovecote.

The apartment has been decorated in neutral colours with a contemporary finish throughout with wooden floors and stylish tiling in the bathrooms.

A large living and dining area opens into the adjoining kitchen, with plenty of windows providing natural light. There are modern units with a wood counter top, oven, gas hob, integrated washer/dryer, dishwasher and space for a large fridge/freezer and a butlers sink.

There are two double bedrooms, with wardrobes. The main bedroom has an updated en suite shower and there is a second shower room serving the guest room.

Aside from the communal areas, there is also a gated car park with two allocated parking spaces in addition to guest parking.

Most welcome is the amount of storage available, not least of which is a large loft with no less than 14 sq m (150 sq ft) of boarded area with full head height.

Dovecote Court is just a short walk from the picturesque and historic village of Chilham, with its beautiful church, public houses, tearoom and farm shop. Lying on the original Pilgrims Way, Chilham was once a resting post for weary pilgrims en route to Canterbury.

With the beautiful North Downs on the doorstep, there's plenty to entertain those looking to enjoy the great outdoors including numerous walks.

Council tax band E

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 19, 2022

    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: obtained from Ofcom on January 19, 2022

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on May 8, 2014 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
