Canterbury Road, Wingham, Canterbury, Kent

Originally built in the Georgian era, this fascinating village property still retains wonderful period features but has been sensitively updated and includes the option to create part of the property as a separate annexe.

There is an impressive 28ft kitchen and breakfast area with herringbone oak parquet flooring, a wide central archway to the breakfast area with a large bay window and cupboards flanking an open fire with an attractive surround. The contemporary kitchen includes a range cooker and stylish units with marble resin worktops, integrated appliances and a peninsular breakfast bar. There is a large cellar and a spacious fitted boot room with French doors to the rear terrace, a charming snug with an open fire and an archway to the study with fitted bookshelves. A wonderful nearly 40ft triple aspect, lounge/diner with a high vaulted ceiling leads to the games room, large enough for a full size snooker table.

A separate front door provides additional access to a utility room with units housing various appliances and the original barn doors to the street while a secondary staircase leads to a landing and the first floor. This includes stairs to the second floor where you will find three charming air conditioned double bedrooms. These have vaulted and beamed ceilings and en suite facilities including one with an integral bathroom, another with a shower room and the third has a cloakroom

The first floor features a fabulous luxury family bathroom with a central copper and brass slipper bath, a double shower, large fitted cupboards and an original fireplace. There are three double bedrooms including one with an ensuite shower and an original fireplace while a brick archway leads to the master suite that has a fitted walk-in wardrobe and en suite and a large bedroom with rural views.

The south facing rear garden features a decked terrace, charming olive trees leading to pathways bordered by a lawn and impressive shrub beds, while at the end of the garden is the Wingham river bordered by fields.
