Full Property Description
Occupying an exceptionally secluded and enviable position within the Kent Downs, Lower Ensden Farmhouse is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial detached Grade II Listed farmhouse together with a collection of attractive outbuildings, set within grounds of approximately 3.38 acres and enjoying fantastic views across the surrounding countryside.
The wonderfully peaceful setting is undoubtedly one of the property's greatest attractions. Surrounded by the rolling landscape of the Kent Downs, the house enjoys far-reaching and unspoilt views, yet remains conveniently positioned for Canterbury, Faversham and the surrounding villages. Properties in such a beautiful and secluded location are rarely available, making this an exciting opportunity for those looking to create something truly special.
The farmhouse itself is now in need of modernisation and offers considerable scope for improvement, subject to the necessary consents. With its generous proportions, period features, attractive outbuildings and exceptional setting, the property provides the opportunity to create a wonderful family home whilst retaining the character and charm of the existing Grade II Listed building.
The accommodation currently comprises an entrance hall, sitting room with a magnificent Inglenook fireplace, drawing room, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and downstairs cloakroom. On the first floor, the landing leads to five bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from an en-suite bathroom, together with a family bathroom and separate WC. A useful cellar, with doors leading directly out to the garden completes the accommodation.
The property is approached via a gravel drive to the front providing plenty of parking. The various attractive outbuildings offer useful ancillary space and further potential, while the grounds extend to approximately 3.38 acres.
