Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Woodside is a four-bedroom detached family home occupying about 1.1 acres of lawn, mature trees and sheltered patios. The house was architect-designed with an emphasis on energy efficiency, offering generous living rooms, a full-width kitchen/dining/family space and scenic woodland views on every aspect. Ground-floor underfloor heating (served by a geothermal boiler) delivers comfortable warmth, while first-floor radiators are oil-fired.
The layout suits family life: a ground-floor bedroom/study with adjacent bathroom, three double bedrooms upstairs, one with en-suite and a walk-in dressing room. Practical outbuildings include the original double stable block used for storage, a large workshop and ample driveway parking. Planning permission is already granted to add a three-bay garage with accommodation above, adding clear scope for expansion or guest space.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The property’s solid brick construction appears to lack built-in wall insulation, so thermal upgrades may be required to maximise efficiency. Oil remains the main fuel for first-floor heating, and there is private drainage. Council tax is described as expensive, reflecting the size and council banding of the house.
For families seeking privacy, space and countryside living within reach of Canterbury, this well-proportioned detached home offers immediate comfort with sensible potential for improvement and additional accommodation subject to the existing planning consent.
