There is off road parking for several cars and wonderful countryside walks.
A short distance to Benenden village with local pub, shop and café, and within the Cranbrook School catchment area.
Situated on a quiet country lane, a short distance from the centre of the pretty and popular village of Benenden. Renowned for its picturesque village green overlooked by the parish church and primary school, Benenden also has a village store and an award winning pub. The local community is an active one: the village hall, conveniently situated in the heart of the village is home to many clubs and societies which provide activities for all ages.
The market towns of Cranbrook and Tenterden are four and six miles distant respectively. There are many excellent state and private schools within the area and the property falls within the Cranbrook School catchment area. Frequent rail services to London can be accessed from Staplehurst station which is 8 miles away (journey time to London approx. 57 minutes by train). The A21 provides access to the motorway network.

Currently the property has been enjoyed as a family home and offers flexible living spaces. There is a spacious entrance hallway with boiler and storage cupboard, 2 double bedrooms which both share the smart modern shower room. The open plan kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of wall and base units with worksurfaces over, electric oven and space for a dishwasher. There is a breakfast bar with space for stalls which is arranged on the central chimney breast dividing the kitchen and sitting room area and creating a sense of light and spaciousness.
