Henbury Manor, Elham Property Description: A peaceful courtyard setting, mature gardens and private woodland combine to create a superb family home in one of East Kent's most desirable village locations.

Built around thirteen years ago as part of an exclusive development, this beautifully presented link-detached residence extends to approximately 2,400 square foot and provides spacious, versatile accommodation suited to modern family life.

The balance of generous reception rooms, an impressive kitchen, four double bedrooms, excellent parking and a double garage is complemented by an exceptional outdoor setting within the Kent Downs National Landscape.

The spacious central entrance hall immediately sets the tone for the rest of the house, creating a wonderful sense of space and linking the principal reception rooms, including a sitting room and a living room, with the kitchen and first floor accommodation.

Natural light flows throughout the ground floor, enhancing the generous proportions of the living spaces.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive kitchen and dining room, extending to over 23 foot and designed with modern family life very much in mind.

A comprehensive range of fitted cabinetry provides excellent storage and generous work surfaces, an integrated double oven, gas hob with extractor above and ample space for further appliances.

The layout comfortably accommodates a large family dining table, making it equally suited to busy everyday living, relaxed family meals or entertaining on a larger scale.

French doors open directly onto the terrace, allowing the garden to become a natural extension of the living space throughout the warmer months, while large windows fill the room with natural light and provide attractive views across the gardens.

A separate utility room keeps the practical elements away from the main kitchen, while a ground floor cloakroom enhances the functionality of the layout.

The first floor continues to impress with four generous double bedrooms arranged around a spacious landing.

The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, measuring over 26 foot in length and featuring fitted wardrobes together with a contemporary en-suite bathroom.

A second bedroom also has its own en-suite shower room, making it ideal for guests or older children, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom.

Each bedroom has attractive outlooks across either the gardens or surrounding countryside, reinforcing the peaceful setting.

Outside: The approach immediately sets the tone, with a sweeping gravel drive leading to a block paved courtyard, serving just a small collection of individual homes and creating an attractive sense of arrival.

A generous private driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles alongside the double garage with one electric door and one up and over door, making the property equally suited to families, visitors or those requiring additional storage.

The rear gardens are a particular highlight and have clearly been thoughtfully designed to create a variety of spaces to enjoy throughout the day.

A substantial paved terrace adjoins the kitchen and living accommodation, providing an excellent setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and summer barbecues.

Well maintained lawns are framed by mature trees, established planting and colourful borders which provide privacy, seasonal interest and an abundance of wildlife.

Beyond the formal gardens, a delightful area of mature woodland creates a wonderful extension to the outside space, encouraging wildlife and providing a peaceful retreat throughout the seasons.

The owners advise this area is for the exclusive use of No. 4, although it does not form part of the registered title.
