#TheGardenOfEngland

A Victorian detached country house with no close neighbours set in a glorious North Downs location enjoying stunning rural views, wonderful gardens, and lovely walks.
In all about 0.74 acres.


A detached Victorian house which in part, was a former gate lodge to the Acrise Place country estate. The house has since been extended and provides family accommodation with lots of character.

There are three ground floor receptions rooms of which two have wood burning stoves and a third has a period fireplace which can also be found in the reception hall.

The kitchen is open to the breakfast room having integral appliances and delightful French windows opening to the garden.

On the first floor, there are four comfortable bedrooms many having dual aspect with garden and rural views.

The house has a generous plot including a sweep-in driveway and parking forecourt leading to a double garage. The house is entirely surrounded by interesting, mature and established gardens which are flanked by woodland and enjoy plenty of privacy.

Much of the countryside in this area is owned by the Ministry of Defence and leased to local farmers. From time to time there can be military training activity in the area.

The house is situated in an accessible yet rural location on the North Downs, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The house is situated in parkland style countryside between the villages of Densole, Lyminge and Elham. To the south is the coastal Town of Folkestone and access to both the M20 motorway and Channel Tunnel. From Folkestone stations, High Speed train services to London St. Pancras are available with journey times of just under 1 hour.

The Cathedral City of Canterbury lies to the north via the A260 which also provides access to the A2/M2 dual carriageway.

To the west via the M20 motorway is the thriving Market Town of Ashford (HS1).

The surrounding area is well served by a choice of schools, both in the state and independent sectors, including grammar schools, along with a wide range of amenities including golf courses at nearby Etchinghill and Sene Valley.

Some of the finest countryside in the southeast can be found amongst the North Downs …

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
