Dormers is a substantial family home well situated within reach of Faversham and with good access to transport links. Understood to have been built in 1923 by William Whiting, Faversham's premier builder of the period, the house has many delightful architectural features some of which were likely reclaimed by Whiting and incorporated into Dormers. Owned by the same family for the last 60 years or so, the house offers a wonderful opportunity to enhance and refurbish a cherished family home.
Beyond the entrance lobby, off which there is a useful study, a central hall leads to a range of superbly sized reception rooms. A generous double aspect sitting room has large sliding doors opening to the garden and is arrange around a fireplace with a marble hearth.
From the sitting room, a door leads into the dining room – another bright, double aspect room with glazed doors leading to the garden. The kitchen is set between this and a cosy family room. There is a utility room with WC.
Stairs with a wooden bannister rise to the first floor landing. The master bedroom is a light, sunny double aspect room with a dressing room. The remaining bedrooms are spacious, with generous storage.
Above is a large attic, currently arranged as various rooms providing storage but with enormous potential to create further bedroom accommodation, subject to any necessary consents.
The property is situated on the outskirts of the ancient market town of Faversham, with its picturesque lanes, boutique shops, regular market and choice of restaurants and cafés.
The historic cathedral city of Canterbury, with its first class shopping, leisure and cultural facilities, is also close by. The north Kent coast is within easy reach, with the popular and fashionable town of Whitstable just nine miles to the northeast.
Mainline rail services are available in Faversham, offering easy access to London St. Pancras in around an hour, while access to the M2 is just over two miles away. The area has good access to the Continent.
To one side of the drive is a long rose bed and to the other a grass verge with mature hedging. At the rear of the property is a flagstone terrace.
The garden has extensive areas of lawn with borders of mature trees, shrub and herbaceous borders. To one end is a brick and timber open-fronted pavilion with tiled roof in front of a level croquet lawn bordered by a long shrub border.
A large central border is home to a pretty wooden summer house and a variety of trees. There is a vegetable garden with a potting shed.
