A substantial Grade II Listed semi-detached residence, offering over 3000 sq.ft of artistically arranged accommodation, this remarkable property has a poetic history and an abundance of period charm.

Dating back to the 15th century, the home carries centuries of heritage within its walls. Once four cottages and later incorporating a former oast house used for drying hops in the traditional Kentish manner the property reflects the villages rural and agricultural past. It subsequently served as a public house before evolving into a distinguished family residence. Today, it flourishes with character features including exposed brickwork, ancient beams, open fireplaces, and intricate stained glass. The current owners have enhanced the property with creative interior design, fine décor and thoughtful craftsmanship.

Nestled in the heart of Bridge village, and offering excellent access to the cathedral city of Canterbury, the residence enjoys off-road parking and a south-facing rear garden.

A gated courtyard leads to a handsome front door framed by rustic brickwork and lattice-led windows. Inside, an elegant reception hall with a wood-burning stove forms the centre of the home, with a staircase rising to the first floor.

To the right lies a charming dining room, flowing seamlessly into a country-style kitchen complete with a Belfast sink, oak cabinetry, granite worktops, and freestanding appliances.

A dual-aspect sitting room occupies the front of the property, while from the hallway a short flight of steps descends into a barrel-vaulted cellar, long enjoyed as a family games room. Exceptionally versatile, this space also benefits from a recently installed luxury bathroom and a utility area.

On the first floor, a galleried landing, perfectly suited as a reading nook forms the heart of the upper level. From here, five generously proportioned bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom with separate shower and WC are elegantly arranged.
