I always admire this house when passing on my way to The Tiger pub -- Alex Davies,Managing Director
#TheGardenOfEngland
A wonderfully charming period farmhouse surrounded by generous gardens of just under an acre including a number of useful buildings and all within walking distance of the popular Tiger Inn.
The village of Stowting is situated in the fold of the North Downs surrounded by countryside designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and with many walks and rides.
A charming detached period farmhouse listed Grade II and dating from the 17th Century with later additions. The original house was extended in 1830 and again in the 1930’s along with a more recent extension in 2003. The result is a wonderfully charming family sized home of differing periods combining 3 separate reception rooms, 2 having inglenook fireplaces, with a bright and spacious kitchen/family room including both dining and sitting spaces with glazed doors opening to the garden.
The first floor is approached via 2 staircases allowing one end of the house to be annexed if required. The bedrooms are of good sizes and are attractive sharing each of two bathrooms, all have a pretty outlook over the lovely gardens. On the main first floor landing there is a delightful sitting area in front of a rear facing window offering rural views.
Gardens & Grounds
The farmhouse is approached over a smart driveway with parking and turning space. The driveway proceeds past the front door to a small yard at the far end with access to the garages, grain store and log stores, this area also provides useful storage space. The front wild flower gardens extend away from the front of the house to join a pretty stream which includes a delightful jetty sitting area. The rear gardens are imaginatively laid out with an expanse of lawns interspersed with shrubs and borders, Rose beds, Trellising, fruit trees, Walnut trees, a cedar greenhouse and a good sized corrugated storage shed. Adjacent to the rear of the house is a paved terrace with an adjacent open fronted pavilion for alfresco dining, barbecues etc. Close to the house is a useful outhouse serving as an additional utility room.
The house is situated in the highly regarded and sought after rural village of Stowting which lies in undulating North Downs countryside, designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with many walks and bridle paths easily accessible. The village is well known for its highly regarded primary school and popular pub/restaurant The Tiger. There is a pretty parish church, community hall and delightful cricket green. The village is surprisingly accessible within reach of the B2068 Stone Street which provides a swift route between the Cathedral City of Canterbury and the M20 motorway (Jct 11). There are main line railway stations at both Sandling and Westenhanger each connecting with the International Station at Ashford with HS1 services to London St. Pancras taking just 37 minutes. The Channel Tunnel is about 6 miles distant and the Port of Dover about 13 miles.
The surrounding towns are served by an excellent choice of schools both in the state and independent sectors including grammar schools for both boys and girls with school buses running nearby.
