Description

Set within approximately an acre of private woodland, this Edwardian detached house presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a character property with enormous potential. Surrounded by mature trees and a natural setting that provides both privacy and seclusion, the house combines period charm with the promise of a rewarding refurbishment project. While the property requires comprehensive renovation, it has the significant benefit of a recently renewed slate roof, providing a solid foundation for future works. Offered to the market chain free, this is an exceptional chance to create a bespoke home in a truly special location.

The ground floor offers generous proportions and a traditional layout with multiple reception spaces that lend themselves to both formal entertaining and comfortable family living. Original features typical of the Edwardian era are present, offering the opportunity to retain and enhance the character of the property during its restoration. The flow of rooms provides a versatile arrangement, with ample scope for reconfiguration to suit modern needs.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises a series of bedrooms arranged around a central landing, each enjoying views over the surrounding woodland. The accommodation is well balanced, with plenty of space to create a comfortable principal bedroom suite alongside additional rooms ideal for family, guests or work-from-home use.

Externally, the house is set within around an acre of woodland, accessed via a right of way along a long treelined driveway from Coombe Lane. The grounds provide a tranquil and picturesque environment, perfectly complementing the character of the house. Outbuildings and ancillary spaces offer further potential for storage or workshop use, subject to renovation. This unique setting, coupled with the scope to transform the property, makes it a highly desirable project for those looking to create a dream home in an idyllic and private location.

Situation - Woodnesborough is a charming semi-rural village on the outskirts of Sandwich, offering a peaceful countryside setting while remaining well connected. The village enjoys a strong sense of community, with a parish church, village hall, playing field and local events bringing residents together throughout the year. Everyday amenities and further shopping, dining and leisure facilities can be found in the nearby historic town of Sandwich, just a few minutes’ drive away, while the vibrant city of Canterbury is within easy reach for a wider selection of shops, restaurants, cultural attractions and excellent schooling options. For commuters, the area is well served by road links and mainline railway stations at Sandwich and Canterbury, providing direct services to London and the coast. Surrounded by open farmland and rural walks, Woodnesborough combines a scenic, village lifestyle with the convenience of being close to two of East Kent’s most desirable towns.
