We absolutely love everything about this wonderful family home and will be very sad to leave but feel it is time to start a new chapter in our lives. The location is excellent because we have all the advantages of living in an historical village property surrounded by countryside yet there is a nearby bus stop, good and easily accessible primary schools and the friendly village amenities. These include a village hall with plenty of regular activities, an award-winning farm shop, a good hairdresser and the local cricket club. There are wonderful places to go for walks with the dog and you can cycle along the Sustrans National Route 17 or stroll down to the Granville pub for a drink or an excellent meal while the nearby village of Bridge has a small supermarket, surgery, dentist, renowned restaurants and a primary school.
The house is not far from Canterbury with its UNESCO world heritage site historic buildings, high street stores and individual shops, theatres, universities, bars and restaurants as well as two mainline stations and the high speed train from Canterbury West that will whisk you to London in under an hour. There is also a choice of first class primary, grammar and private schools while for sporting enthusiasts there is the Roundwood Hall Golf Club along Stone Street or the Canterbury Golf club and Polo Farm Sports club on the outskirts of the city. If you enjoy horses, there is also the Bursted Manor riding centre and excellent rides in the 440 acres of Lyminge forest. If you want to go further afield it is very easy to get to the A2 for London or Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent.”
