The Mouseprice Value Guide tells you how the asking price of a property compares to the market price of other properties with similar attributes including property type, location and floor area. Note that some aspects of a property are not considered by the Value Guide such as the condition and home improvements so it is important you do your own research.

Description

" Nestling in private grounds overlooking farmland and the Kent countryside as far as the eye can see, this warm and friendly detached family home offers something special. Believed to have been built in the 1930s it includes plenty of period features that give it such a delightful character such as fireplaces, dado and picture rails, bay windows, pine doors, coved ceilings and fluted pattern door lintels and door frames. At the same time is a potential ‘blank canvas' for new owners to make it their own and update it to their own requirements. The house is set back from the lane behind a picket fence with a path, flanked by dwarf hedging, mature trees and lawns, that leads to the wide front door with ‘bottle' glass inserts. It is also approached via a driveway where you can park three or four cars and that leads to the garage. There is a long hallway with original herringbone pattern oak parquet flooring and dado rails which leads to the reception rooms including the attractive lounge with a Victorian style fireplace, coved ceiling, a wide bay window offering beautiful rural views, a ceiling rose and French doors to the terrace. While guests will be delighted to enjoy a meal in the formal dining room opposite that also includes a large bay window and a similar fireplace. The country style kitchenbreakfast room has French doors to the garden, a recently installed inset range cooker and wood units containing a fridge freezer and dishwasher while still leaving plenty of room for a large table and chairs. There is a nearby utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer and downstairs shower room which is very useful if you come home from a muddy walk with the dogs as well as a small conservatory that opens onto the side garden.

The large galleried landing leads to the family bathroom and five bedrooms.

What the Owner says:


We still intend to stay in the area as we love the quiet and the surrounding countryside but are looking to downsize. Nearby Ash is a charming and friendly village with a delightful array of properties and some very useful amenities. There is a bus stop close by with buses going to Sandwich and Canterbury on a regular basis. The village includes a Co-op, newsagent, chemist and hairdresser as well as a physiotherapy centre, a good primary school and St Faith's prep school. There are a number of regular activities in the village hall including Tai Chi and weekly coffee mornings. The pretty village of Wingham is also nearby with its individual shops, post office, pubs and restaurants including the Dog – winner of the Great British Pub award 2019 - as well as the Wingham Wildlife Park, an excellent garden centre and the renowned Gibsons Farm Shop for all your quality local produce.
The medieval Cinque Port town of Sandwich with its delightful pubs, restaurants and shops is within easy reach while the historic city of Canterbury with its high street stores, individual shops, universities, theatres and heritage buildings is not far away. Golfing addicts can enjoy their game at Princes and the world renowned St George's championship course in Sandwich. Boating enthusiasts can moor their boats along the River Stour in Sandwich and other sporting activities are easily available.
