#TheGardenOfEngland

A beautifully presented semi-detached Grade II listed village home, with a fascinating history and now offering characterful and beautifully presented living accommodation. Complete with detached outbuilding and attached double garage, gardens, and courtyard. Situated in the heart of the popular village of Bethersden.

Situation
Jasmine House is set amongst other period properties and situated in the heart of Bethersden, a thriving village which offers excellent local amenities including a post office, general store, deli/butcher, a community owned inn, a pretty church and primary school. A wider range of amenities are available in historic Tenterden to the west and thriving Ashford to the east. The high-speed rail service (HS1) to London runs from Ashford with journey times of just 37 minutes. The M20 motorway can be accessed from junctions 9 and 10 at Ashford.

Jasmine House
Once the village bakery and also a general store, this beautifully presented period property has fabulous, retained period features including exposed beams, fireplaces, and sash windows.
The sitting room has a Travertine floor, a fireplace fitted with a gas fired wood burner style stove and bay window overlooking the garden to the front. The kitchen / dining room is a lovely space with a range of units under a granite worksurface, ample room for a dining table and a fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove. Adjacent is the welcoming snug with exposed beam, open fireplace, and bay window.

The master bedroom is an enchanting room with high vaulted ceiling, built in wardrobes and a smart bathroom en suite with free standing bath. There are two further double bedrooms, and these share the family shower room. A further set of stairs leads to the attic room which would work well as a study. Finally there is a second attic room offering useful storage space.

Outside
Jasmine House is set well back from the road with a gravel path leading to the front door. The gardens to the front are very pretty with carefully planted beds and mature hedging.
Vehicle access is to the side of the property with wooden gates opening to an area of off-road parking and the part walled sunny courtyard. To one side is the useful detached outbuilding with both power and light and is still home to the original bread oven for the bakery. Opposite is the garaging of which Jasmine House owns two of the garages with useful attic storage. At the far end of the plot is a fully fenced garden with roses and fruit trees set around a lawn.
