If you dream of living the rural idyll in the peace and quiet of the Kent countryside adjacent to an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty near the end of the North Downs, then The this property should be top of your list. It is located at the top of sprawling grounds of 5.23 acres including a stunning three acre lake surrounded by trees and shrubs. The owner purchased the property about twelve years ago and, at the time, it was in a derelict state and stripped back to bare brick so, internally, everything is less than twelve years old and includes all the 'mod cons' associated with an upmarket 21st century property. The house has an attractive frontage with a pitched roof porch, chimney stack and unusual pointed arched windows and oak front. The pointed arch design is also reflected in the pointed archways found throughout the property including in the spacious reception hall that has open archways to the 'snug' area, the inner hallway and cloakroom as well as to the lounge and the very useful study. This has a wall of shelving and fitted desk units and a wide square arch to the vast dining room where you could happily entertain more than a dozen guests. The dining room includes two French doors to the balustraded upper decked terrace where you can sit and admire the views as well as direct access to the kitchen. This has a range cooker and a raft of attractive Shaker style units housing a dishwasher while the walk-in pantry includes a fridge freezer. On the other side of the house is the large, triple aspect lounge that spans the depth of the property. It includes a charming brick fireplace with a log burner and has French doors to the upper terrace. On the first floor there is a spacious galleried landing with large airing cupboard, an archway to a quiet reading/study area and the contemporary family bathroom as well as to four bedrooms.

This has an en suite bathroom and a large dressing room with fitted cupboards that also has a door to the landing so could become an additional bedroom if required.What the Owner says:I bought this house twelve years ago and it has been a labour of love to restore it and create a unique home but feel it is now time to downsize. I love the quiet and beauty of the countryside but, at the same time, I can be in Canterbury in just over 15 minutes and Ashford in under 20 minutes for the high speed train that can whisk me to London in 36 minutes so, door to door, I can be in central London in under an hour. While Canterbury includes wonderful historical buildings, high street stores, independent shops, restaurants and pubs, a golf course and leisure centres as well as first class private and grammar schools and three universities.Living in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers not only wonderful views but also delightful places to go for walks. It is not far to Chartham with its two pubs, two convenience stores, a hairdresser and post office as well as the Chartham Winery or Chilham with its castle and picturesque village square and nearby station.Room sizes:Entrance Hall: 18'4 x 8'1 (5.59m x 2.47m)Sitting Room: 28'1 x 15'9 (8.57m x 4.80m)Kitchen (L Shape): 18'3 x 7'2 (5.57m x 2.19m) narrowing to 8'0 x 6'3 (2.44m x 1.91m)Utility Room: 15'10 x 5'4 (4.83m x 1.63m)CloakroomStudy: 17'9 x 9'0 (5.41m x 2.75m)Dining Room: 18'5 x 17'9 (5.62m x 5.41m)FIRST FLOORLandingMain Bedroom: 25'5 (7.75m) x 15'8 (4.78m) narrowing to 7'8 (2.34m)En Suite Bathroom/Shower Room: 9'2 x 7'6 (2.80m x 2.29m)Dressing Room/Bedroom 5: 12'0 into bay x 7'3 (3.66m x 2.21m)Bedroom 4: 12'0 (3.66m) narrowing to 10'7 (3.23m) x 8'7 (2.62m)Bath/Shower RoomBedroom 3: 13'5 x 12'3 (4.09m x 3.74m)Bedroom 2: 17'9 x 12'4 (5.41m x 3.76m)En Suite Shower RoomOUTSIDERear GardenLakeFront GardenGated DrivewayOUT BUILDING GROUND FLOORDouble Garage: 26'2 x 21'2 (7.98m x 6.46m)Workshop: 34'5 x 10'10 (10.50m x 3.30m)OUT BUILDING FIRST FLOORStorage: 37'4 maximum x 29'8 maximum (11.39m x 9.05m) The information provided about this property does not constitute or form part of an offer or contract, nor may be it be regarded as representations.

The lower ground floor is the piece de resistance with a simply stunning indoor swimming pool with a built in Jacuzzi and a wall of sliding doors to the vast lower terrace that, when open, bring the outdoors inside. Around the pool there is a steam room, plunge pool and infra red and classic sauna as well as a shower room, changing rooms, a large playroom that would make an excellent cinema and a utility room with two washing machines and two tumble dryers.What the Owner says:There was originally an older farmhouse on the site but we were advised by the town planners that it would be more appropriate to demolish the old house and build a new one. So we started the 'labour of love' building this amazing property at the end of the last century and finished it some 10 years later. We both come from Africa and have always enjoyed homes with plenty of light so that was a very important aspect when initially designing our new residence. In order to create the fabulous lower ground outdoor terrace so we could wander out from the swimming pool to a large open space, we had to dig out the whole area and all the soil has gone into the landscaping of the surrounding gardens. While the earth from digging out the lake and the reservoir has been used to landscape the 12 acres of grounds. Over the years we had three gardeners designers providing wonderful creations for different parts of the garden and grounds and we are extremely proud of the delightful results. When building the property we have tried to incorporate everything of the highest quality and to provide a beautiful and relaxing home for ourselves, our family and our friends. We love our home but are now about to embark on a new chapter in our lives and we look forward to new owners being able to take advantage of everything we have done to create the ultimate in a modern country estate.Room sizes:Reception Hall: 26'8 (8.13m) x 24'7 into bay (7.50m) narrowing to 17'6 (5.34m)Drawing Room: 34'9 into bay x 17'6 (10.60m x 5.34m)Kitchen/Dining Room: 36'5 (11.11m) x 21'4 (6.51m) narrowing to 17'6 (5.34m)Boot Room: 9'1 x 9'1 (2.77m x 2.77m)CloakroomFormal Dining Room: 18'9 x 15'5 (5.72m x 4.70m)Study: 14'5 x 14'3 (4.40m x 4.35m)HallSwimming Pool Area: 43'6 x 37'8 (13.27m x 11.49m)JacuzziSteam RoomSaunaPlunge PoolShowerWCChanging Room: 11'5 x 7'4 (3.48m x 2.24m)Gym: 19'4 x 15'9 (5.90m x 4.80m)Function Room: 35'3 x 17'4 (10.75m x 5.29m)Wine Room: 12'7 x 7'4 (3.84m x 2.24m)Laundry Room: 11'5 x 8'5 (3.48m x 2.57m)CloakroomPantryUtility Room: 12'5 x 8'0 (3.79m x 2.44m)Store Room: 10'7 x 5'9 (3.23m x 1.75m)Plant Room: 15'9 x 15'5 (4.80m x 4.70m)Systems Room: 12'9 x 12'5 (3.89m x 3.79m)SPLIT LEVEL FIRST FLOORGalleried LandingMaster Bedroom: 17'7 x 14'0 (5.36m x 4.27m)Dressing Room: 17'5 (5.31m) narrowing to 9'3 (2.82m) x 17'0 (5.19m)En-Suite Bath/Shower Room: 15'9 x 8'9 (4.80m x 2.67m)2 x BalconiesBedroom 5: 13'4 up to fitted wardrobes x 10'6 (4.07m x 3.20m)En-Suite Shower Room: 11'5 x 5'8 (3.48m x 1.73m)Bedroom 2: 15'11 x 12'8 (4.85m x 3.86m)En-Suite Shower RoomBedroom 4: 13'3 x 12'3 (4.04m x 3.74m)Jack & Jill Bath/Shower Room: 10'8 x 8'2 (3.25m x 2.49m)Bedroom 3: 17'8 x 10'1 (5.39m x 3.08m)SECOND FLOORLoft Room: 20'5 x 8'1 (6.23m x 2.47m)Roof Terrace: 36'2 (11.03m) x 13'1 (3.99m) narrowing to 8'0 (2.44m)OUTBUILDING GROUND FLOORTriple Garage: 35'8 x 24'0 (10.88m x 7.32m)WCStore RoomOUBUILDING FIRST FLOORAnnex Living Room: 20'1 x 16'2 (6.13m x 4.93m)Annex Kitchen: 11'2 x 7'8 (3.41m x 2.34m)Annex Bedroom: 20'1 x 11'4 (6.13m x 3.46m)Annex Shower Room: 11'2 x 8'2 (3.41m x 2.49m)OUTBUILDING LOWER GROUND FLOORGames Room: 34'6 x 20'9 (10.52m x 6.33m)Store RoomOUTSIDEGardensWater Fall FeatureTennis CourtMan Made LakeJettyWater ReservoirGreenhouseVegetable GardenOrchardGated In & Out Driveway The information provided about this property does not constitute or form part of an offer or contract, nor may be it be regarded as representations.
