Property Description

A modern, well-proportioned family home with attractive gardens in highly sought after village location enjoying a lovely outlook.

Situation

The property is set in the most sought after village of Stelling Minnis which forms part of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village benefits from a general store/post office, public house, primary school, community hall and ancient windmill. A bus service runs through the village connecting to the Cathedral City of Canterbury and, to the south, the Channel Tunnel town of Folkestone. Each of these offers excellent shopping, recreational and educational facilities, together with high speed main-line train services to London St Pancras, with a travel time to the capital of some 60 minutes. A little further afield will be found the expanding business centre of Ashford, from where the capital may be accessed in some 37 minutes, whilst the Eurostar connection here provides direct and easy access deep into Europe.

The Property

This well presented and substantial modern detached family home offers spacious and light accommodation throughout. The property has a unique charm with many attractive features and boasts superb views from every room over the Minnis, countryside and attractive gardens. The stunning sitting room is huge with a wood burning stove and two sets of sliding patio doors leading to the exterior sun terrace allowing natural sunlight to bathe the room. A wide walk-through opening leads through to the dining room and sliding double doors lead through to the kitchen/breakfast room, which is a delightful double aspect room with wood flooring and further sliding patio doors leading to the lovely sun terrace. The kitchen is well fitted out incorporating a space for a Calor gas cooking range with extractor canopy over plus space and plumbing for a dishwasher. Beyond here is a rear lobby with door leading to the exterior to the side and utility room. The family room gives access to the study which has a door leading to the outside.
