Flint Cottage is a handsome flint cottage in the heart of Barham village with an array of characterful rooms. The property’s original rooms offer comfortable elegance, juxtaposed against the bright and airy later additions to the rear. Deceptively large, the accommodation offers over 2,400 sq. Ft. The rear garden is private, with a good-sized garage building and a gravel drive for off-road parking.
The reception hall with its stairway and store cupboard opens onto a central study, alongside which is a useful cloakroom and utility. The elegant front-facing 18 ft sitting room has a feature fireplace, whilst the adjacent formal dining room has an original serving hatch.
The accommodation flows through to the open-plan kitchen and relaxed family area with vaulted ceilings and windows; French doors lead to the rear terrace. The kitchen itself has a range of attractive cabinetry and display units with wooden handles and work surfaces, dual sinks and a cream aga range cooker, while the light-filled family room enjoys peaceful views to the south-facing rear garden. A cool pantry and a further well-appointed utility room are accessed off the kitchen.
The spacious first floor houses five bedrooms, each with a variety of bespoke fitted wardrobes and pleasing elevated aspects. The 15 ft principal bedroom and a second bedroom both enjoy en suite shower rooms, with a further shower room completing the accommodation.<br /><br />The property benefits from a sizeable, gravelled driveway leading to its detached double brick-built garages beside the rear garden. A pathway flanked by formal level lawns and enclosed via picket fencing and pretty shrubs and climbers leads up to the main entrance.
The south-facing rear garden comprises a paved sunken sun terrace and a circular level lawn, with a variety of herbaceous planting and trees. A wrought-iron gate opens into a kitchen garden with a range of raised beds and additional lawn.<br /><br />The property is situated in the heart of the historic village of Barham in the Elham Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, providing a scenic environment for a wide variety of outdoor pursuits. The village has a shop, popular public house and a well-regarded primary school.
For a wider range of amenities, nearby Canterbury offers extensive shopping, leisure and educational facilities as well as excellent commuter links, including the High Speed rail service to London St Pancras (53 minutes). The area also has good access to the motorway system, and the Continent via the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel.
