Located in a beautiful rural setting on the outskirts of the quaint village of Hawkinge, just outside Folkestone, this property is a hidden gem!

When you arrive at the gates to this property you realise that this is no ordinary house.  Driving through and onto the gravel driveway you circle round the raised Koi pond and fountain and pull up outside a beautifully imposing and grand building.  It immediately grabs your attention and there's a feeling of opulence right from the start.  If it wasn't for this you might be mistaken for thinking that the main building was actually the huge 5 car garage building set off to the side of the main house, but we will come onto that later.

Heading in through the fabulous front entrance you come into the magnificent hallway.  With a spectacular sweeping staircase overhead you'll instantly be in awe.  These staircases are hand built from oak and the free-standing curved one on the first floor leads to the newly created second floor and is really are something to behold.  Straight ahead through double doors you have a cinema room and the promise of that amazing feeling gathered with friends or family enjoying your own private showings of cinematic magic!  Off to the left of the hallway you have the main living room, with a grand open fireplace and large bay windows with patio doors leading outside, this room will be the perfect retreat for the family to convene after those wonderful meal times.  Speaking of cooking, a right from the hallway takes you into the heart of the home, the huge open plan kitchen/diner.  With an Italian Granite island taking centre stage and a magnificent Aga cooker, this kitchen is the perfect setting for the very finest of meals to be created.  There's also high specification integrated standard ovens and a microwave in this very well appointed kitchen.  With space to seat 12 people even the most grand affairs can be catered for.  Off from the Kitchen is the handy utility room at the far end which also has a downstairs shower room.

Now would be a good time to step outside (in a virtual sense) to the spectacular rear landscaped gardens.  The first thing to mention is the fact that these gardens are bathed in sun from dawn till dusk and also the fact that they are not overlooked at all. With rural fields stretching out far beyond the boundary fences, this garden truly makes you appreciate being in such a lovely country setting.  With patio areas for those alfresco dining occasions, luscious lawned areas and tall established trees lined around, you will appreciate how much work has been done both inside and out by the owners to create this rural paradise.  At the back of the garden is a luxury hot tub with wooden pergola overhead.  To the left is a large decking area which leads perfectly to the next wonderful feature, a large Scandinavian log cabin.  Inside there is a bar in the first room (perfect for entertaining) and a handy cloakroom and w/c.  The second room is currently a games room with a pool table.  Up above you have built in ladder leading to a snug area, perfect for the kids to have that hide-and-sneak moment.

Back inside the house and up on the first floor landing, you have a bedroom/study off to your left and then the Master Bedroom through double opening doors, and what a bedroom this is.  With a beautiful modern tiled en-suite shower room with the added benefit of being a steam room too - there's also a separate walk-in wardrobe, this bedroom has it all.  Next up off the landing is bedroom two which also features a modern en-suite bathroom. And at the end you will find a fabulous bathroom with an exquisite free standing bath tub.

Your attention can't be help gaze up the amazing sweeping staircase from the 1st to 2nd floor and as you glide upwards you can really appreciate the craftsmanship and attention that's gone into making this so special - once up this beautiful staircase you will find yourself on a large landing space, perfect for an office with some truly stunning views out over the gardens and beyond to the roaming fields through the large windows.  Up here there are also two good sized double bedrooms on either side of the landing, both of which have an abundance of clever built in storage spaces to utilise every inch of space.

We mentioned earlier on about the enormous garage which we'll now come onto.  This building was built by the current owners and has scope for converting into a separate dwelling as it's built on a raft and has the footprint bigger than most modern houses!  A change of use application may be required but should be easy to obtain.  With four garage doors it encompasses a large workshop area and sizeable garage spaces.  Upstairs there is a well proportioned room which is currently being used as a gym but could make a perfect office for those that work from home.  Once again clever eves storage space lines every side of this room to maximise its usage.  The are multiple possibilities for this garage and will be dictated by the new owners wish list.
