Set within the Elham Valley, this characterful five-bedroom detached home combines generous family accommodation with sweeping countryside views. The house benefits from approximately 1.5 acres of formal gardens plus around 5 acres of woodland, creating exceptional privacy and outdoor scope for gardening, play or small-scale equestrian/amenity use.
Internally the layout is traditional and spacious: large reception rooms, a separate breakfast room, utility and study, and a notably large master bedroom. Heating is via an air-source heat pump with radiators; main fuel is electricity. The property dates from the 1930s with later extensions, so it has period charm but also a varied fabric and retrofit history.
Practical points to note: there is only one bathroom for five bedrooms, the EPC is D and broadband speeds are slow — important for home-working families. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The house appears well‑set and secluded, with a detached garage and parking, but upkeep of the large plot and woodland will be a long‑term commitment.
This property will suit growing families or buyers seeking lifestyle and space in a prosperous rural village. It presents immediate comfortable living with scope for modernising, extending or landscaping to unlock further value — an appealing canvas for anyone wanting a countryside family home with striking valley views.
