Tue, 03 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000

PRICE GUIDE £385,000 - £430,000 This delightful property situated in the popular village of Wingham is quite simply, stunning. Our clients have owned the property for just over 10 years, having renovated and thoughtfully extended the original cottage into a substantial family home which now boasts a fantastic 28'11 'L' shaped sitting room with wide reclaimed floorboards, 12'11 dining room with a stone tiled floor and bespoke 19'7 solid beech kitchen having granite work surfaces and a utility room with downstairs cloak room. A nice feature of the ground floor is the addition of zoned lighting. Upstairs the original plans were for 4 double bedrooms, the master with an en suite. Not needing the fourth room the owners have created a vast landing/library, however the forth bedroom could be very easily reinstated. The bathroom is a particular feature and is fitted with a double ended enameled bath with wall mounted mixer taps and set into a granite plinth having curved wooden paneling and also boasts a stylish Alessi basin. The bathroom offers a separate shower cubicle with rounded glass sliding door and a round low level W.C. To the rear of the house is a well stocked garden measuring some 65ft with a sun patio just to the rear of the house and a large shaped deck to the rear of the garden with views over open fields towards Seaton and Ickham which is also where the sun sets. To the side of the house is a graveled driveway with parking for 2 cars. How to sum up this house? I would suggest this property reflects the owners attention to detail as they have created something quite unique but also a fantastic family home. Wingham is a thriving village situated some 6.4 miles (10.3km) east of the cathedral city of Canterbury. The village is particularly well situated for good access to the city as well as Sandwich and the A2 London / Dover bound. The village benefits from a primary school, village store, post office, 3 pubs and a restaurant having various farm shops situated on the outskirts. Buses are plentiful to Canterbury and Sandwich.
