Seller Insight

We fell in love with the house and the grounds as soon as we saw them and knew it was the right place to bring up young children. It is quiet and peaceful as well as being very safe, the views are outstanding and the cottage offers everything including spacious and characterful rooms providing an eclectic mix of old and new. However we feel it is time for us to downsize and let a new family enjoy it as much as we have over the years.

Although we live out in the county we are not far from Kingston with the historic church and a unique village hall that offer a variety of activities, as well as the well-known Black Robin pub. The villages of Barham and Bridge are nearby while Canterbury is less than eight miles. Barham is a very friendly village. There is a pub/restaurant and a well-respected village school as well as a post office and a useful village shop run by volunteers that sells everything you need from light bulbs to specialist wines and homemade bread to fresh meat.

Barham has an active tennis and bowls club and there is a cricket club in the nearby village of Bridge where there are also a variety of shops including a small supermarket, a health food shop and a hair and beauty salon. Bridge also has a number of pubs, restaurants and a tea shop as well as a dentist and a very good surgery and clinic. Broome Park is not far for golfing aficionados and for those who enjoy walking or riding there is the Bursted Manor Equestrian Centre and Covert Wood offers some splendid ‘off road’ facilities. Very good secondary schools are available in Canterbury and there is a regular bus service through Kingston to Folkestone and Canterbury.
