Description

Charming detached cottage in a picturesque rural hamlet, embraced by stunning countryside.

Situation

Postling is a charming rural hamlet in the heart of the Kent Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Surrounded by rolling hills, lush fields, and ancient woodlands, it offers a peaceful retreat centered around the historic St. Mary and St. Radigund's Church. The village features delightful cottages and tranquil lanes, while nearby Lyminge and Etchinghill provide essential amenities. Lyminge includes two doctors' surgeries, a chemist, a general food store, a library, and a public house, while Etchinghill boasts a popular pub/restaurant and a golf course. Just a few miles away, Folkestone and the historic town of Hythe lie to the south, and Canterbury to the north, each offering a variety of shopping, recreational, and educational facilities, along with mainline train services to London, with the high-speed rail link reaching St. Pancras in about 60 minutes.

Property

Mount View is a delightful period detached brick cottage, gracefully set on a generous plot. The property exudes charm and character, featuring a central doorway and stairs, flanked by a cosy sitting room and a simple kitchen/dining room on either side. This symmetry extends upstairs, where two inviting double bedrooms, with dormer windows, offer a warm and airy ambiance. Off the kitchen, a practical utility space provides convenient access to a ground floor bathroom suite. At the rear, a large vestibule serves as a serene study, enhanced by stable doors that open to reveal breathtaking views of the beautifully maintained garden. Further benefits include replacement double glazing, immersion heating for the hot water and two multi fuel burners located on the ground floor.

Outside

Nestled away from the road, this property features a charming lawn garden enclosed by well tended hedging, complementing the kerb appeal of this cottage. A gently sloping driveway leads to off road parking, while a substantial garage provides ample space for a workshop and a potting shed behind. The expansive gardens to the rear are a stunning feature of the property, filled with a diverse array of shrubs and bushes that create a vibrant landscape. Backing onto serene local countryside, the gardens offer a tranquil retreat.

Services
