The Street, Adisham, Canterbury, CT3

The Property
Located in a conservation area in the popular village of Adisham is this beautiful character home. Previously two 17th century cottages skilfully converted to one. The property has 5 bedrooms, 3 receptions and a large kitchen/breakfast room.

With Canterbury approximately 6 miles away there are great road and rail links in the village including a direct train to London Victoria, a selection of good village primary schools close by, and easy access to the city’s excellent grammar schools.

**The property was completely restored and refurbished in 2018 using materials faithful to the original build wherever possible. Whilst some of the timbers are still those of the original approx. 1600 build, the current owners have also sympathetically modernised this listed property for contemporary living including such features as a HIVE system, underfloor heating to the kitchen, irrigation system to the landscape designed garden and excellent broadband access throughout the property. It was also fully rewired and replumbed (including a new boiler) in 2018. The property was formerly part of the Fitzwalter Estate and has a delightful history.**

NB: As this property was originally two cottages, there are still two staircases.

Property Description
To the ground floor you will find 3 reception rooms, the living room has engineered oak flooring, exposed beams and a beautiful inglenook fireplace with a modern log burner. The Sitting room has a fully working second log burner dating from 1910. There is also a good sized dining room. All have access out to the stunning grounds.

The kitchen has an integrated Neff dishwasher, two integrated under counter Bosch fridges and a Kenwood Rangemaster cooker with a 5 burner hob and an extractor hood fitted above. There is a ceramic double basin sink and country style cupboards fitted underneath the solid oak worktops plus the aforementioned underfloor heating. The floor is laid with 18th century French terracotta tiles, the wall tiles were handmade in Sussex.

The separate utility room has more fitted units, a butler sink, an integrated Bosch under counter freezer and has a laundry room with plumbing and space for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer.

NB: As this property was originally two cottages, there are still two staircases.

One leads onto the landing and the other leads directly into one of the bedrooms.

Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The smaller of the bedrooms leads off from one of the larger doubles – ideal for either a nursery or a dressing room. The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite and has a freestanding roll top bath.


Grounds
The grounds for this property occupy just over a fifth of an acre and were completely redesigned and landscaped by the current owner. There is a beautiful pergola which has been made from Cumbrian oak and cedar shingles, some mature fruit trees in the garden provide pears, plums and apples. There is a double shed for storage. There is potential to extend (subject to the usual consents) just off the internally accessed store room and externally accessible wood/fuel store to the north side of the property, to create a large additional family room.

The property is approached via a gravel driveway and there are timed security lights installed. There is off road parking for up to three vehicles.

**Again please take the 360 tour as it highlights the home far better than any wording**
