Property description

With its origins dating back to the 13th Century, this characterful period property still retains some original 17th century brickwork but is not listed and has been sensitively updated by the current owners. It nestles in 0.2898 of an acre and is approached via a long gravel drive with gated entrance to a large parking area and a garage with workshop and storage facilities.The period front door opens into the hall with an understairs cupboard and impressive Brazilian floor tiles that flow through into the contemporary kitchen. The triple aspect sitting room has exposed beams and original parquet flooring as well as a stone fireplace with a slate hearth and a multi-fuel burner. The kitchen is open plan to the dining area and includes Howden units and granite worktops housing a variety of appliances and a large, central island/breakfast bar, French doors to the terrace and access to the cloakroom.The good sized landing has space for a desk and leads to the modern shower room and three large double bedrooms with fitted cupboards including the very good sized first bedroom that has a wall of built in cupboards and views over the delightful garden.Outside there is a detached summerhouse with a decked terrace, tiki bar and office facilities. The garden is everything you would imagine in the ultimate ‘cottage garden.' There is a large sunken terrace with steps up to the lawns interspersed with trees, flowers and shrub beds and a path to a second patio seating area adjacent to a wildlife pond, while a fascinating circular arch sculpture is a special feature.What the Owner says:
We bought the house in 2015 after two years of searching. We fell in love with the ‘feel' of it and the amount of space and privacy it afforded us. However, it hadn't been lived in for a number of years and it needed some serious TLC, so we spent the next year or so updating and upgrading the whole house and garden. Nonington is a friendly village with a garage, cricket club and a primary school while nearby Chillenden has the famous Griffins Head pub and restaurant. There are regular trains from Snowdon and Adisham stations that link up with the mainline high speed rail stations at Dover, Sandwich, Canterbury and London.
