#TheGardenOfEngland

A detached part furnished holiday cottage capable of producing an excellent income set in gardens and paddocks with garaging and outside office. Potential for a second cottage STPP

This rare opportunity is situated within just 4 miles of Canterbury on the outskirts of the village of Chartham which has a station.

In all about 2.68 acres


Situation

Horton Lodge is tucked away at the end of a farm track and approached via a private driveway set within its own grounds.

Just across the river is a cycle route known as The Great Stour Way, a traffic free pedestrian and cycle route following the course of the river all the way to the City of Canterbury and also to the villages of Chartham and Chilham in the opposite direction (National Cycle Route 18).

The nearby village of Chartham has a mainline railway station connecting with both Canterbury West and Ashford International, each with connections to HS1.

For holiday visitors, the historic Cathedral City of Canterbury is just 3.5 miles distant with its shopping centre, cultural interests, UNESCO sites and tourist attractions. The surrounding North Downs countryside provides many walking routes and activities whilst cross channel travel can be accessed via Dover or Folkestone.
