This charming four-bedroom detached house dates from 1915 and combines period character with the comforts of modern family living. Set in the village of Stanford, between Canterbury and Folkestone, the property enjoys a lovely rural setting while being exceptionally well placed for road and rail connections.

The property has a number of character features, both old and new. Original features include exposed timber beams and period bedroom fireplaces and staircase, complemented by two modern log burners and a striking spiral staircase while the established rear garden provides a secluded setting for relaxing and entertaining. A detached double garage with an impressive studio above adds flexibility, whether for working from home or creative pursuits.

For further information or to arrange a viewing, please call quoting BD0443.

Inside, a welcoming reception hall leads to two versatile reception rooms. The snug/dining room is a cosy space centred around one of the two log burners, with exposed beams adding to its character. The generous family lounge has a second log burner and bi-fold doors opening directly onto the garden. From here, the distinctive spiral staircase rises to the principal bedroom suite.

At the heart of the house is a farmhouse-style kitchen, featuring a built-in oil-fired Rayburn, quarry-tiled floor and a generous pantry. A spacious adjoining utility room provides useful laundry and storage space, together with direct access to the garden.

Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a lovely space, with dual-aspect views across both gardens and towards the North Downs, a varnished wood floor and an en-suite shower room. Three further bedrooms are served by the family bathroom with underfloor heating. The layout also offers plenty of flexibility for family life, guests or dedicated home-working spaces.

Outside, the established rear garden is private and secluded, with a generous lawn, mature borders and a patio providing an ideal spot for outdoor dining. The detached double garage has an electric roller door, power and lighting, with driveway parking for two cars. Above the garage, the studio has power, lighting and internet access, making it a versatile space for a home office, studio or hobby room.

Stanford sits at the foot of the North Downs, offering a peaceful village setting with excellent connections. Westenhanger station is a short walk, with trains to London and Stratford in under an hour, while the M20 is just minutes away by car. Hythe, Folkestone and Canterbury are all within easy reach, making the property well suited to those looking for a countryside home without sacrificing accessibility. The village pub, The Drum, provides a friendly focal point for village life.

Offered chain-free, with completion scheduled for March 2027. The sellers have already bought their onward property in France, with no chain above them — the completion date simply reflects their relocation timeline.
