Property description
This property is a delightful and impressive family home standing high up above the village of Temple Ewell, providing panoramic views across the North Downs.
From the moment you turn into the large block-paved driveway, with its garage and space for numerous vehicles, you will be eager to see what is beyond the front door. Once over the threshold, the entrance hall flows through to the attractive drawing room which is open-plan to the elegant dining room, making it a wonderful overall space for entertaining. There are French doors out to the large patio so you can wander out on a summer’s evening and enjoy a dip in the welcoming hot tub – just right for relaxing after a busy day at work. Your friends and family will also be able to join you for a barbecue or al fresco dining on the extensive terrace.
The stunning, modern kitchen/breakfast room is nearly 28ft. Long and will delight even the most discerning chef. This vast space includes a range of attractive units and granite work surfaces as well as an array of integrated appliances including two ovens, microwave, a five-ring gas hob, dishwasher, American fridge/freezer and wine cooler as well as a central island where you can sit and chat. Upstairs, there is a family bathroom with a bath and a shower as well as four double bedrooms including the master with en suite facilities, built-in wardrobes and wonderful views across the rolling hillside in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The guest bedroom has an en suite shower with views over the terrace and garden. The sizeable tiered garden incorporates some grassy areas where you can sit and listen to the birds and leads to a wooded copse with a variety of trees and shrubs that makes a wonderful spot for children to run around.
What the Owner says:
We moved here about 14 years ago and have enjoyed every minute. We fell in love with the property the moment we saw it. We are a military family and have been used to moving every couple of years, so the concept of having a settled home meant something really special. During the time we have been here we have been delighted to upgrade the house and make it our own and it has been wonderful to be able to see our grandchildren playing in the garden. It is very peaceful and safe as the lane leads to fields so there is very little traffic, which makes it a great area for walking the dogs. In fact there are numerous country walks we can enjoy such as the parks adjacent to nearby Kearsney Abbey and the local nature reserve offers wonderful opportunities to view rare wildlife species. We are in an excellent position as we are central for Dover and
Canterbury but, at the same time, we can enjoy the village life. We have very friendly neighbours and the village of Temple Ewell is a delight. There is a local grocery store and the family-friendly Fox Inn pub as well as a recently opened shop in Kearsney. There is an excellent primary school with an Outstanding Ofsted report and a village hall providing a wide variety of activities.
