Surrounded by rolling countryside yet conveniently positioned between Dover and Folkestone, this outstanding home offers a rare blend of privacy, space and luxury living.

Approached via electrically operated gates, the property immediately impresses with its sweeping gravel driveway, extensive parking and substantial double garage. The attractive grounds create a wonderful sense of arrival and provide a fitting setting for a home of this calibre.

Internally, the accommodation is thoughtfully designed to suit modern family life. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a series of elegant reception spaces, including a generous living room with feature fireplace and direct access to the gardens, a formal dining room, study and a superb garden room overlooking the grounds. At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen with ample workspace and storage, complemented by a separate utility room.

The spacious second bedroom also enjoys access to a walk-in wardrobe, further enhancing the luxurious feel of the accommodation.

Outside, the grounds are a particular highlight. Mature lawns, established planting and carefully landscaped areas provide a tranquil and private environment. A charming pond and seating area create a peaceful retreat, while the former swimming pool (with pump station and boiler if you wanted to reinstate it) has been transformed into a picturesque wildflower meadow, adding both character and biodiversity to the gardens. The extensive plot offers a wonderful backdrop for entertaining, family gatherings or simply enjoying the surrounding countryside.

A truly distinguished home offering generous accommodation, exceptional grounds and an enviable village setting.
