Steeped in history the delightful Grade II Listed this property has its origins in the mid-16th century while a second cottage and extensions were added at later dates. The entire property was remodelled as one dwelling more recently, creating a unique and quirky family home with a fascinating exterior. Surrounded by farmland in an AONB it has a gravel driveway providing off road parking and a large detached garage with stairs to a first floor room with a vaulted ceiling and a vanity basin.

The hall provides access to a shower room, the snug and the contemporary, dual aspect kitchen/dining/family room with oak flooring. There is a brick built island breakfast bar, bespoke units with slate worktops housing appliances and stairs to a double bedroom and en suite shower. The characterful snug includes exposed beams, original tiled flooring, an inglenook fireplace and stairs to a first floor double bedroom with an en suite cloakroom and stairs to a second floor double bedroom. The cosy, dual aspect sitting room features an inglenook fireplace and a large log burner, a central beam and wood flooring plus access to the first bedroom on the first floor with an en suite bathroom and stairs to the second floor and another double bedroom. There is a large dual aspect utility room/second kitchen with an Alpha One range cooker/heating system, terracotta tiles, a beamed ceiling and stable door to the lobby and back door. The front lawn is bordered by a picket fence while the rear garden backs onto fields and includes a terrace, a large lawn, trees and shrub beds as well as an external toilet and a patio.

What the Owner says:
We moved here in 2001 and it has been a great place to bring up our family but it is now time to downsize. We love the character of our home and the peace and tranquillity as well as the surrounding countryside for great walks around the Chislet marshes. We are quite close to Upstreet with the Grove Ferry Inn, village store, post office and a regular bus service while Chislet includes a good primary school with secondary schools in Herne Bay, Canterbury, Thanet and Sandwich. High speed trains from Herne Bay station can whisk you to London in under an hour and a half.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 23, 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 February 16, 2024

    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 August 27, 2021 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.
