"We have loved living in this house and have really made it into our dream home.
The kitchen, adjoined dining room and garden have provided excellent space for christmasses, summer parties and family gatherings.
The open views to the garden and cherry farm next door, make this home feel bright and open. The matured garden has plenty of space with a pergola and veg patch.
During autumn and winter, we use the log burner to keep the house cosy and warm.
The local area is also very special, with lovely pubs in walking distance, many more with easy access in Staplehurst and West Malling. Surrounded by orchards, you’ll also find lovely walks in every direction.
We’re relocating to Greece, for a slower lifestyle, otherwise this would be our forever-home. We hope you enjoy it as much as we have!"
