Situated on approximately 1/3 of an acre in a quiet village location, this double fronted period property has been extended generously by the current owners and provides a wonderful family home with a good use of space throughout. Believed to have been originally built in the late 18th century as a farm cottage with a coach house to the rear, the property has incorporated both elements together and retains the essence of the period with contemporary additions providing a charming blend of characteristics. Set back from the road with an attractive front lawn, the property is accessed via a main front door and secondary entrance to an extremely useful boot room, which provides an excellent entry point after a winter country walk. On the ground floor there are three principle reception rooms. The coach house conversion at the rear provides a spacious sitting room with inset solid fuel burner and French doors which lead to the rear garden. To the front of the property is an inviting dining room with solid wood floor and opening to a well fitted modern kitchen with granite work surfaces and inset range cooker. There is also a further dual aspect reception room/ study and recently installed ground floor shower room/utility space. On the first floor are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom/w.c.

Externally there is extensive parking and gardens to the front with space to the side accessing the rear of the property. The substantial rear garden is south facing and is predominantly laid to lawn, with a separate patioed seating area with pergola and an impressive kitchen garden with garden storage to the side. To the rear of the property there is a large workshop with power and lighting. The property is available with no onward chain.

Windycroft is set in an enviable position on the edge of the village of Preston with easy access to both the village centre and outlying countryside. Preston is a popular village with a thriving village store, butcher and highly-regarded Primary School. The surrounding countryside provides lovely walking and cycling. The nearby village of Wingham provides a further range of local amenities whilst the Cathedral City of Canterbury is easily accessible offering a comprehensive range of leisure facilities and an impressive selection of schools, colleges and universities. Canterbury West station offers High-Speed rail services to London St. Pancras with a journey time of approx. 55 minutes.
