Situation
The “Minnis” at Stelling Minnis, is an area of unenclosed common land that is a vestige of a much older landscape that existed over much of the country before the enclosure movement. Why and how the Minnis escaped being enclosed remains a mystery, but today the land remains in private ownership, with commoners have grazing rights over it and the general public having the right to take “air and exercise” and is an asset that can be enjoyed by all.
The village of Stelling Minnis has developed around the “Minnis” in a dispersed pattern, except in the vicinity of Rose Lane, where the village coalesces around the village shop and the Rose and Crown Public House.

Stelling Minnis is situated in the North Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, that
extends north from the escarpment near Farthing Common to the gently folding hills lying to the south of Canterbury. Although well connected by both road and rail, Stelling Minnis retains a degree of rural isolation and a timeless charm that make it a perfect place to
put down roots, to retire, or to raise a family.

The historic city of Canterbury is a short drive away and has a wide range of schools, a comprehensive shopping centre, theatres, cinemas and is also the home to the University
of Kent and Canterbury Christ Church University. Close at hand is both the Minnis and Lyminge Forest, which are wonderful places to exercise a dog, walk, ride or cycle.
Village life also continues to offer a wide range of social activities. Take your pick from fêtes and flower shows to cricket or maybe just be content to enjoy the peace and quiet.


Description

Built by Canterbury based premium developer Rogate, Rose Lane is a collection of 13 individually designed homes built in a traditional style. The layout is designed to reflect the rural character of Stelling Minnis with houses fronting a narrow lane with grass verges on either side that opens out onto a communal green. Architecturally designed in a traditional style using a range of materials that are typically found in Kentish villages. These include traditional red brick, tile hanging and painted weather boarded elevations under plain clay tiled and slate roofs. Internally each home has been designed in a contemporary manner and in a way that creates a light and spacious interior and incorporates sliding doors that enables the inside living space to be opened-up to the rear garden.
This particular home boasts a tremendous open plan arrangement on the ground floor, with a warming log burning stove and excellent connectivity to the rear garden. From the first floor are delightful views over the communal land – a haven for wildlife.
