About
Some properties benefit from truly outstanding settings, and I would say this is certainly one of them, -- Adam Howell #TheGardenOfEngland NO CHAIN An appealing traditional coach house situated at the top of Church Hill within approximately one acre of fine gardens, cleverly extended and reconfigured over time to provide versatile accommodation including a fully functional annexe.
Understood to have once formed part of the Old Rectory opposite St Michael & All Angels Church in Kingsnorth, this property has been transformed over the years into a more sizeable and very welcoming family home encompassed by delightful gardens.
Approached via a private driveway surrounding a central wildflower pond, the position here is quite idyllic offering a high degree of seclusion and a village lifestyle whilst remaining close to amenities nearer the town and straightforward access to excellent transport links.
Highly flexible in its use, you are initially greeted by a very welcoming entrance hall with alternative access to the property available via both the annexe and the inner courtyard.
The main house has two bedrooms on the first floor and a choice of two or three additional ground floor bedrooms which could potentially be reconfigured if necessary, and the sitting room is particularly bright with floor to ceiling windows on either side and a feature brick built fireplace.
The annexe is exceptionally well configured, with comfortable well proportioned rooms and a private outlook across beautifully maintained gardens and beyond, currently this space works nicely in conjunction with the coach house itself but could easily become more independent accommodation if so required.
The property sits within a pretty conservation area but is unlisted, allowing scope for further changes subject to the relevant consents being obtained.
The large rear lawn is surrounded by a selection of magnificent trees and established hedge borders, with planting areas designated for growing a variety of produce and plants, and an insulated detached workshop with a pitched roof which may present some interesting possibilities.
A particular feature in our opinion is the peaceful inner courtyard with its own water feature, which provides a tranquil space to relax and fully appreciate the surroundings.
We feel this is an excellent all round package balancing traditional charm with modern day convenience, and we confidently recommend an inspection.
The village of Kingsnorth has a pretty church, primary school, garage, and local pub, the Tesco Supermarket can be found within 0.25 of a mile and wider facilities in the thriving Market Town of Ashford are a little over 2 miles away.
The village is one of the closest to the town of Ashford and combines convenience with an attractive setting especially when approaching the church and this particular home, the locality is well served by a choice of schools both in the state and independent sector, including Grammar schools, as well as excellent travel links including the International station (HS1), M20 motorway at Junction 10A and Channel Tunnel near Folkestone.
