The house stands proudly atop Chillenden village in 0.75 of an acre, with a double garage and private garden.
The front door opens into the light and airy entrance hall where one is immediately aware of the calming and serene ambiance. A door leads into the relaxed sitting room with solid oak floors, sandstone fire surround with Stovax wood-burning stove, and a sunny window seat. An opening leads into the library - a pleasant nook to relax and unwind in with an open fire with French limestone ledge seat.
Pocket doors open into the remarkable kitchen/living/dining space divided into three sociable zones: a cosy seating area next to the open fire with custom-built Bath stone surround, a social dining area (both areas with larch vaulted ceilings), and a gently lit bespoke kitchen with a custom fumed solid oak island with drawers and topped with Calcutta Borghini marble, together with a breakfast bar, Devol brassware and hardware, and Neff appliances. Custom Accoya arched French doors provide access to the rear terrace. An opening to the side of the kitchen leads to a useful pantry, a utility room, and a welcoming boot room with door to the side. There is also a bright snug with window seat and a cloakroom.
Limestone steps with custom railings rise to the first floor landing. The principal bedroom has a large dressing room with fitted cupboards and solid oak floors. There are three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom with Neptune washstand with marble top and free standing stone bath. The front bedrooms and landing have charming views over the medieval village and church.
A gravel driveway leads to the generous parking area with double garage ahead. The front garden is largely laid to lawn with a delightful fir tree.
The rear garden is light and open with a terrace and a beautiful Swedish birch tree, with mature boundaries proving high levels of privacy. There is a large area of lawn ideal for social gatherings and family enjoyment.
Chillenden is a picturesque village situated in the Kent countryside with its own church and well-regarded pub; other amenities, including the renowned Gibsons Farm shop, are found in nearby Wingham and Ash. For a wider range of facilities Canterbury, Sandwich and the seaside town of Deal are within easy reach and all provide opportunities for sporting activities as well. The nearby green expanses of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty provide opportunities for outdoor pursuits, including walking, cycling and horse riding.
The area is well served by the A2, providing swift access to Dover, Canterbury and the M2 for a fast route into London. The mainline station at Adisham, a short drive away, offers direct services to London Victoria. Canterbury West station offers fast and direct services to London St Pancras. There are several well regarded state and independent schools in the area.
