Bridleway Cottage is beautifully set at the end of a country lane with panoramic views over rolling fields and woodland towards Crundale Downs – a perfect starting point for rambling and hikes. The house offers relaxed and stylish living spaces which opens to the calm and sheltered garden and large heated swimming pool. The tasteful herbaceous planting creates a spectacular, year-round backdrop.
The plot totals about 1.27 acres with meadows and lawn; there are also outbuildings storing garden equipment offering exciting development opportunities, subject to any necessary consents.
The front door opens into a welcoming, vaulted reception hall with double doors leading to the large, open plan sitting/dining room with ample space for a large dining table. The sitting area has a cosy wood-burning stove and sliding doors opening to the south facing gravel garden – an ideal place for alfresco dining.
The bespoke, modern kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with integrated appliances and mellow oak cladding adds warmth. From the kitchen there are sliding doors leading onto stone and flint steps up to the garden and pool.
The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and has a stylish en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms on the ground floor and a family bathroom. Upstairs, a further bedroom is set within the eaves. This would also make a wonderful study or studio, with far-reaching views across the surrounding fields.
Agent's Note: Prospective purchasers should make their own enquiries of Ashford Borough Council<br /><br />A long drive provides access to a generous parking area in front of the detached garage and a pathway from here leads to the front door. Already one is aware of the uniquely peaceful and serene setting.
Manicured lawns, interspaced with specimen trees and colourful contemporary planting, wrap around the cottage, with a collection of seating areas allowing one to follow, or seek shade from, the sun. Mature boundaries and hedging create a sheltered setting to enjoy the 50’x20’ swimming pool and unwind to the sound of nature. The pool is heated by an energy efficient air source heat pump.
A large vegetable garden, containing raised beds and fruit trees, leads towards the potting sheds and other outbuildings.
The front garden runs along a bridle path, with expansive walks across the North Downs directly from the front door.<br /><br />Godmersham is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty midway between Canterbury and Ashford; both towns provide extensive shopping, educational, cultural and leisure facilities.
Nearby Wye offers excellent local amenities and a station with services to both Ashford and Canterbury. The High Speed service from Ashford International to London St Pancras has a journey time of around 36 minutes.
The M20 and A2/M2, provide a choice of connections to the remaining motorway network. The area has good access to the Continent via the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel at Folkestone.
