Nestled in the pretty village of Chilham, recently named as one of the prettiest villages in Kent (The Times - May 2024) and within a short walk of Chilham railway station (0.5 miles), Chilham Castle and all the local amenities make this the ideal choice for families and couples who are looking to explore Kent’s countryside. Keen walkers and cyclists can explore the many trails on offer that run along the Pilgrims Way, taking in Godmersham Park and the wider countryside. Families can enjoy a trip to nearby Howletts Wild Animal Park (10 miles) and for those who like to explore the local heritage, Godinton House and Gardens, Leeds Castle and Sissinghurst Castle and Gardens are all in 20 miles for great days out. Hop in the car to Canterbury (7 miles) where you can explore Canterbury Cathedral, or visit the Kent coast at Whitstable and Tankerton (12 miles) famous for their locally caught oysters and gently shelving beaches.
Enter this reverse-level house on the ground floor where you will find two bedrooms: a twin zip-and-link (which can be made into a super-king on request), and a king-size bed with patio doors out into the pretty garden – perfect for enjoying a morning cup of tea in the fresh air. The family bathroom is also located on the ground floor, as is the utility cupboard. The washing machine is in the integral garage. Head up the curved staircase to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner which is a light and airy space and a lovely area for relaxing after a busy day. A comfortable corner sofa is the ideal place to curl up with a good book or catch up on your favourite programmes on the Smart TV. Why not gather the family together at the dining table with seating for an evening of after-dinner board games? The kitchen is well equipped with all that you will need for delicious family meals and there is a handy breakfast bar from which you can enjoy magnificent views of Chilham Castle parklands.
Heading outside, there is a pretty split-level garden with a patio table and chairs, and charcoal BBQ for enjoying outside entertaining. Private parking for 1 car is available with access to EV charger and additional free on street parking.
