Description
Coming to the market for the first time in over 30 years and located within an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Bikkel is a charming unlisted four bedroom property, set in a sought after semi-rural location on the periphery of Benenden village enjoying delightful southerly facing gardens and a paddock with an area of woodland planted with chestnut, oak, ash and silver birch trees.
This delightfully situated property, which offers the opportunity for updating, features two reception rooms, including sitting and family rooms, the former with sliding doors to the rear garden and a study area which is open plan to the sitting room.

The beautifully well established gardens with mixed hedging to the perimeter, extend mainly to the rear of the property with expansive lawns, a range of shrubs, fruit trees and a garden shed.
