We have thoroughly enjoyed extended and modernising this unusual property to become not only a wonderful family home but somewhere our parents could also have an independent and pleasant lifestyle. Sadly, for health reasons we must move but we hope that new owners will love this special place. It is in an ideal, quiet location with little traffic so it is very safe for children and animals. We have a friendly community and the village includes a convenience store and post office, a primary school rated Outstanding and the family-run Crown Inn. There is also the East Kent Railway station with heritage trains that take you on the four mile round trip via Shepherdswell and plenty of places to go for country walks or to cycle and ride.
The location is very convenient as we are not far from Canterbury, Dover and Sandwich where you will find excellent grammar and private secondary schools, historic buildings, high street stores and independent shops as well as a wide range of restaurants, pubs and sports facilities including the championship golf courses at Sandwich. We are near the sea and beaches, with the White Cliffs of Dover only a ten minute drive, while nearby Shepherdswell station includes trains to London and the Kent coast and the high speed trains from Dover Priory will whisk you to St Pancras in just over an hour. If you want a trip to the Continent, as well as a ferry from Dover, there is also easy access to the Channel Tunnel.Room sizes:HallwayPrincipal Bedroom: 14'5 x 12'8 (4.40m x 3.86m)En-Suite BathroomDressing Room: 7'9 x 6'5 (2.36m x 1.96m)Utility RoomInner HallKitchen/Breakfast/Living Room: 36'8 x 11'4 (11.18m x 3.46m)Sitting Room: 19'2 x 11'1 (5.85m x 3.38m)Dining Room: 19'2 x 11'1 (5.85m x 3.38m)Bedroom 2: 16'0 x 11'5 (4.88m x 3.48m)En-Suite Shower RoomBedroom 3: 13'4 x 12'0 (4.07m x 3.66m)Bedroom 4: 13'5 x 9'4 (4.09m x 2.85m)Shower RoomAnnexe Lounge/Diner: 25'7 x 9'9 (7.80m x 2.97m)Annexe Kitchen: 9'9 x 9'0 (2.97m x 2.75m)Annexe Bedroom: 12'9 x 9'8 (3.89m x 2.95m)Annexe En-Suite Shower RoomBASEMENTCellar: 20'4 x 12'4 (6.20m x 3.76m)Rear GardenFront GardenDriveway
