In all about 16.5 acres
(Potential to purchase a further 4 acres subject to separate negotiation)


Situated on the outskirts of Woodchurch village which is perhaps one of the most popular in the area with its picturesque village cricket green, parish church and two pubs. There is a village shop and post office, butcher, coffee shop, primary school, church, garage, and a doctor’s surgery whilst there are wider facilities in the surrounding area. The historic town of Tenterden with its busy shopping High Street offers supermarkets, schools, and leisure amenities. The thriving market town of Ashford provides further retail opportunities, access to the M20 motorway and the International Station along with 37 minute high speed trains to London St. Pancras. There are several schools in the area both in the state and independent sectors. The local village primary school is a walk away and was last rated by Ofsted as ‘Good’.


A most interesting detached country residence incorporating a turreted wing and plenty of character features throughout including wood panelling and beams, combined with modern features.
There is a grand double fronted oak door with a long panelled entrance hallway, stairs to the first floor, coats cupboard and w/c. The generous size kitchen/breakfast room has recently been refitted by a Whitstable company, with a modern and comprehensive range of units incorporating integrated appliances and waterfall marble island and matching worktops. This open up into the family area where there is a utility cupboard and bi-fold doors opening onto the newly fitted outside kitchen area, complete with waterproof TV and Potters digital sound system. Just off the kitchen is a useful study with further storage. The dining room and sitting room are generous spaces which share the back to back fireplace, both with fitted wood burning stoves. The sunroom is a lovely further reception room with bifold doors on the the garden patio. Upstairs is equally spacious, the master suite has a wall of bespoke fitted wardrobes, a dressing room and a substantial ensuite bath/shower room.
