Set amidst peaceful Kent countryside between Canterbury and Sandwich, Deerson Farm Cottages offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy village life with space, privacy and versatility. This charming semi-detached home sits within grounds of approximately 1.12 acres and combines traditional character with scope for further enhancement. The house is well presented and has been carefully maintained by the current owners, featuring generous accommodation over two floors, private parking, extensive gardens, and an adjoining parcel of land with an ancillary workshop/garage that offers excellent potential for conversion (subject to planning permission).
The front entrance opens into a welcoming hallway, leading to a shower room and a kitchen fitted with a range of units and space for modern appliances. The dining room, positioned to the rear of the house, enjoys pleasant views over the garden and provides an inviting space for family meals and entertaining. The lounge to the front features a charming fireplace, creating a warm and homely focal point. A porch completes the ground floor layout, offering useful additional space for coats and boots.
Upstairs, the family bathroom is complemented by three comfortable bedrooms, each enjoying attractive outlooks over the surrounding countryside. The principal bedroom is generously proportioned, while the remaining rooms offer flexibility for family living, guests or home working.
To the rear of the cottage, a raised timber deck provides a perfect spot for outdoor dining and relaxation, with steps leading down to a large lawned garden. The front patio garden adds further seating space, and across the lane lies a private off-road parking area with an ancillary workshop/garage. This substantial outbuilding offers excellent potential for conversion to residential or studio use (subject to the necessary consents). The adjoining parcel of land extends to a large area of grass and a fenced grazing paddock, ideal for hobby farming, pets, or simply enjoying open green space. In total, the property extends to approximately 1.12 acres, offering a rare combination of rural lifestyle and manageable landholding.
Situation
Deerson Farm Cottages enjoys a tranquil rural setting just outside Preston, a sought-after village offering a popular primary school, village store, church and welcoming local pub. The historic towns of Canterbury (approximately 9 miles) and Sandwich (around 6 miles) provide a wide range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities, including well-regarded grammar and independent schools. For commuters, A2 and A256 road links give easy access to London and the Kent coast, while rail services from Sandwich and Canterbury offer regular connections to London St Pancras. The surrounding countryside provides an abundance of walks, cycling routes and scenic vistas - the perfect blend of country living with accessibility.
