7 bed detached house for sale

Bossingham Road, Stelling Minnis, Canterbury, Kent CT4

Set within 1.566 acres, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a Grade II Listed Kentish farmhouse with substantial attached annexe and an impressive range of outbuildings. Rich in character and history, the farmhouse has already undergone preparatory works, providing an ideal blank canvas for sympathetic renovation and an exciting opportunity to create a truly exceptional country home. The current layout flows from the entrance hall, through sitting and living rooms, both with brick fireplaces, dining area, former kitchen space, garden room, utility area and shower room. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including one with adjoining washroom, together with a family bathroom.

Extended in 2009, the attached annexe offers extensive and highly versatile accommodation, ideal for multi-generational living. The ground floor includes a kitchen/diner, utility room, cloakroom, lounge, and a generous bedroom suite with dressing room and en-suite bathroom. Upstairs, a spacious landing provides an excellent study area and leads to three further bedrooms and a shower room.

Approached via a driveway flanked by broad lawns, the property centres around the original farmyard and an outstanding collection of outbuildings, including a substantial barn with multiple stores, a two-bay carport, log store, attached Dutch barn, former stables and additional storage buildings. Together they offer exceptional potential for storage, workshops, leisure use or conversion, subject to the necessary consents. The gardens feature mature planting, a large pond, vegetable garden and a detached building currently used as a home gym.

What the Owner says:
"This has been a much-loved family home for many years and has adapted wonderfully to our needs over time. The annexe has allowed different generations independence while remaining close together, and the flexibility the has been invaluable. We have enjoyed the space, the gardens and the unique setting within Stelling Minnis, where life feels wonderfully peaceful yet never isolated. The village has a real sense of community, with its shop, pub, church and primary school. We have spent countless hours walking across the Minnis and surrounding countryside, while still enjoying easy access to Canterbury, Ashford and the excellent transport links that connect Kent to London and beyond.
The decision to sell has not been easy, but we feel the time is right for someone new to take the farmhouse forward. The annex is ready immediately, while the main house offers an exciting opportunity to restore and shape a historic home for the years ahead. We hope the next custodians will enjoy it as much as we have."
