Rectory Lane, Saltwood

Mapps Estates are delighted to bring to the market Kintail Manor, a fine example of the architecture of the Arts & Crafts movement, designed by Baillie Scott and built in 1923 for William Webster. Located at the end of a private lane in the rural outskirts of Saltwood village, this unique and substantial Grade II listed residence offers a wealth of character and admirable craftmanship throughout, set in grounds of approximately one and a half acres, and boasting beautifully landscaped gardens with a private tennis court. The generous accommodation centres around a stunning oak-panelled, high-ceilinged dining hall looking onto the sun terrace and garden, with a sitting room and study to one side and a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room to the other. There are five bedrooms in total with three en suite bathrooms, the spacious master bedroom also boasting a walk-in dressing room. The West Wing offers potential for use as a self-contained two bedroom annexe if required. There is a formal garden to the front of the property with steps leading up to the double garage and ample off-road parking space. An early viewing of this beautiful home comes highly recommended.

Located on the outskirts of Saltwood village, within easy walking distance to the church, picturesque village green and ever popular primary school, as well as Brockhill Park performing arts college. The village itself offers a local newsagent, Parish church, the Castle hotel and public house, and an active village hall. The pretty Cinque Port town of Hythe is a short distance away down the hill and offers a good selection of independent shops, together with Sainsbury's, Aldi and Waitrose stores, while the Royal Military Canal and seafront promenade offer delightful walks. Sandling is the mainline railway station in Saltwood and offers services to Ashford where you can change for access to the high-speed train, which has a travel time to London St Pancras of just thirty-eight minutes. The M20 Motorway, Channel Tunnel Terminal and Port of Dover are also easily accessed by car, as is the historic cathedral city of Canterbury.
