Set amidst 11.19 acres of gardens, grounds and paddocks with a heated swimming pool, stable block and a full size, floodlit manège this impressive rural residence is ideal for anyone with equestrian interests. It was originally built about 50 years ago but has been extended and includes charming internal features such as ornate coved ceilings, lighting roses and dado rails.
Impressive pillars signal the entrance to a private road leading to the main gates and an in-and-out gravel driveway surrounded by beautifully manicured lawns and a border of mature trees and shrubs. There are wood framed windows and a double wood front door opening to the impressive double height reception hall with wood panelling and a wood staircase as well as views of the galleried landing. There are two cloakrooms, a country style kitchen with a four oven gas Aga, bespoke solid wood units, a walk in pantry and a variety of appliances, an adjacent utility room and an external door to the rear garden.
An open archway leads down steps from the kitchen to the triple aspect family area with bi-fold and French doors to the terrace offering stunning rural views. There is a spacious dining room with wood and glass French doors that open into the dual aspect games room with full height windows and French doors to the driveway. There is a study with French doors to the main terrace and an elegant dual aspect sitting room with an immense brick fireplace incorporating a log burning stove.
Off the spacious u-shaped galleried landing there is a family bathroom and five double bedrooms including a guest suite and the triple aspect main bedroom with its box bay window, en suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe.
The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with mature trees, shrub borders, charming shrub beds encircling the lower terrace and pond and a delightful summerhouse with a covered porch. There is a very large barn and the heated swimming pool surrounded by a terrace. The stable block includes four stables, tack room, tea room, double garage and workshop, hard standing and a gate to the road while another gate from the road provides access to the paddocks.
What the Owner says:
We moved here some 26 years ago and it has been a wonderful place to bring up our family. We created the manège and swimming pool and extended the house to provide a spacious family home. However the children have ‘flown the nest' and we feel it is time to downsize. As well as those with equestrian interests the property has potential as an events venue and there could be the opportunity to create a barn conversion, subject to the appropriate permissions.
The location is great as we are only a couple of miles or so from Whitstable and about three miles from Canterbury while the nearby Blean primary school is rated Outstanding by Ofsted.
