A rare, characterful detached former mission hall sympathetically updated to provide nearly 1,500 sq ft of striking, flexible family accommodation. Vaulted ceilings, arched doorways, exposed rafters and solid oak parquet combine with large glazed doors that frame far-reaching countryside views. The current layout includes an open-plan living area with a Danish pellet stove, a principal bedroom with luxury en-suite, two further bedrooms and a study/office link.
Practical running costs have been addressed: a pellet boiler provides the main heating, solar panels supply summer energy and extensive internal insulation and double glazing have been installed. The house sits on a generous plot with an edible garden, small meadow, summer house and parking for several cars — excellent for family life, home-growing and entertaining.
This is a historic property (late 1800s) that has been newly renovated by the current owners, so charm and modern interventions sit together. Buyers should note the building is solid brick with internal insulation — older construction can behave differently to modern cavity walls — and the EPC is D. Council tax is above average (Band E). Mobile signal is average despite the quiet, AONB countryside setting.
Located in the peaceful hamlet of Shottenden with easy links to Selling station and Canterbury, the house suits families seeking rural living with good commuter access. It will particularly appeal to buyers who value architectural character, productive gardens and energy-conscious systems, and who are comfortable with ongoing maintenance typical of period buildings.
