This wonderful detached period property comes to the market with a quiet corner plot location, with two country lane boundaries and fields surrounding. Originally built in 1550 (the property is not listed) and since extended, the property provides plenty of charm and a large plot that gives you a fantastic garden to enjoy. The accommodation itself boasts two large reception rooms with an inviting sitting room that boasts a fireplace that houses the log burner. There is an additional reception room which can be used flexibly as a dining room or even by extending the kitchen/utility area to provide the property with a larger, open plan kitchen. There are two double bedrooms upstairs and a family bathroom. Externally there is a double garage / workshop and parking.  The garden houses many mature fruit and hardwood trees dot the grounds - including Cherry, Magnolia and an amazing Monkey puzzle tree. There is a steel trellis covered ‘wishing’ well which has provided water continually - for perhaps Centuries. With the property itself sat on the corner of the large plot there is plenty of scope to extend the living space or build further subject to the appropriate planning permission being granted. The property has undergone significant improvements since going to market and these include the follwing: - All internal and external facing walls have been studded, insulated and the plastered - New air source heat pump with new radiators throughout including triple radiators - Solar panels fitted and wired into the current system A****pple Tree Cottage is situated on the outskirts of the village of Capel Le Ferne and is only a mile or so from the very scenic Alkham Valley and there are some fine countryside walks and bridle-paths in the area. The neighbouring village of West Hougham is within two miles whilst the Towns of Hawkinge and Folkestone (the latter now with the Hi-Speed rail link to London) are not much further away. The Port of Dover is a short drive away whilst the Folkestone link to the Channel Tunnel is even closer. Here is a home in the Country but close enough to the hustle and bustle (and conveniences) of Town life, and the historically rich tourism mecca of Canterbury is only about 15 miles distant too.
