Outside:
Walnut Cottage is nestled within the quiet village of Kingston in an idyllic setting, directly opposite the church. The property extends to just over 6 acres in total, with just under 5 acres ideally suited for equestrian use.
The paddocks are well-presented and ready for immediate use, featuring two stables, one water tap serving the outbuildings with electricity and rubber matting, plus an additional storage barn with electricity supply and tack room. The paddock boundaries are fully post-and-rail fenced, offering the flexibility to section them according to the next owner’s requirements.
There is also vehicular access to the paddocks further up the road, ideal for larger vehicles that cannot be parked on the driveway, while providing discretion and in turn a sense of additional security and peace of mind for anything stored or kept on the land.
Beyond the paddocks lie uninterrupted views of rolling fields, with the neighbouring village’s church spire visible in the distance. The location offers easy access to a network of bridle paths, enhancing the property’s equestrian appeal.
Closer to the house, the formal garden is generous in size yet retains a quainter village feel, with mature fruit trees, shrubs, and planted beds. A patio area leads directly from the house, providing a pleasant spot to enjoy the outlook across the garden and paddocks.
