Situation
The property is located in a quiet private lane on a desirable edge of village whilst still being within easy access of all amenities.
Lyminge is a bustling and popular village offering a wide range of amenities including newsagents/general stores, tea rooms, Chinese and Indian restaurants/takeaways, public house, two doctors' surgeries, church, pharmacy and excellent primary school. There is also an active community hall, sports field and library.
Bus services run through the centre of the village, providing easy access to the south, to the Channel Tunnel town of Folkestone and the Ancient Cinque Port Town of Hythe on the coast, and to the north to the University and Cathedral City of Canterbury. These offer an excellent range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, including top ranking Grammar and Private Secondary Schools, together with high speed main line train services to London with the travel time to St. Pancras having been reduced to some 60 minutes.
A little further afield will be found the expanding business centre of Ashford, from where the capital may be reached in some 37 minutes and, via the International Station and Eurostar connections, there is direct and easy access deep into Europe.
The Property
This is a deceptively sized bungalow positioned in an ideal location for village amenities, yet still close to open countryside.
The present vendors father built the property in 1961, hence it has been in the same family's occupation for all that time. At present it has two bedrooms, although the study could be made into a third bedroom quite easily if required, it currently has folding doors separating the sitting room. The generous sitting room with a fireplace is situated at the rear of the property offering wonderful views across the gardens and out to the countryside beyond, while a good size conservatory is just off here. There is also a front porch, hallway, a well-fitted kitchen and a family bathroom.

Bedroom One (11' 11'' x 10' 10'' (3.63m x 3.30m))

Sitting / Dining Room (14' 0'' x 11' 11'' (4.26m x 3.63m))
Conservatory (11' 1'' x 9' 0'' (3.38m x 2.74m))
Bathroom (7' 4'' x 6' 10'' (2.23m x 2.08m))
Kitchen (12' 4'' x 8' 10'' (3.76m x 2.69m))
Boot Room (6' 5'' x 4' 11'' (1.95m x 1.50m))
Outside
The rear gardens are of a good size, mainly laid to lawn with established borders filled with an array of trees, shrubs, plants and flowers. At the end of the garden is a fenced off piece of land used as a wild garden, but could easily be a splendid addition to the already lovely formal gardens or an extra hidden vegetable/fruit garden. An enclosed decked area offers an alfresco location for entertaining, a driveway gives off road parking while a shed and a greenhouse complete the outside space.
This is a tucked away bungalow benefitting from a quiet, exclusive location yet within easy access of all the varied village amenities.
