Seller Insight

With origins in the 15th century, this beautiful Grade II listed family home, which boasts 2.2 acres of stunning gardens and grounds, sits tucked away on a quiet lane on the edge of the well-served village of West Kingsdown. It was the land that surrounds the house, and the fact that it gave us the ability to keep our horses at home that initially sparked our interest in the property,” say the owners. “Then, when we came to view it, the minute we set eyes on the house itself we were totally sold.

The property as a whole is amazing, and the location is a place where we’ve been able to enjoy all the benefits of countryside living, with all the convenience of having an array of well-served towns and villages within easy reach, as well as excellent transport links.
