Ideally located along The Street in Ash is this Grade II listed Georgian residence originally built in 1799. It includes a private lane behind the property leading to off street parking and a detached outbuilding.

The kitchen/breakfast room features attractive units with tiled worktops housing upmarket appliances. The adjacent utility room includes laundry facilities and a door to the courtyard. From the hallway, steps lead down to a large cellar that provides spacious storage facilities and, although there are height issues, it could be used as additional accommodation. The galleried landing has loft access, and a family bathroom with a built-in cupboard, four bedrooms including three doubles and a large single currently set up as an office. One of the doubles has fitted wardrobes, another has built-in shelving. The principal bedroom has built in cupboards, a walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room.

There is access to the front of the property and a rear gate that opens onto the private lane leading to Chequers Lane, the two parking spaces and detached outbuilding. This features open plan rooms with a vaulted and beamed ceiling, with electrics, lighting and a cloakroom, representing a rare opportunity for new owners to have a work from home office or dedicated hobby space.

What the Owner says:
Our parents spent many happy years of their retirement in Ash. They enjoyed living in their well-appointed home and being active members of the community. Ash is a charming and friendly village with a delightful array of period properties and some very useful amenities. In addition to the convenience store and chemist, there is a newsagent, hairdresser, doctors' surgery, physiotherapy centre, a good primary school and St. Faith's Prep School. There are a number of regular activities in the Village Hall, St Nicholas Church and Chequer Inn. The White Mill Farm Shop nearby offers fresh, quality produce and other items. The bus stop on The Street provides easy access to Sandwich and Canterbury.
Sandwich is one of the medieval Cinque Ports towns and is famous for its architecture and world-class Royal St. George's Golf Club. The boutique shops are interesting and the Empire Cinema from the 1930s is a great venue for an evening out. The River Stour runs through the town and many boats are moored there.
The historic, walled city of Canterbury known for its stunning cathedral is a short drive away. Here there is a wonderful mix of old world character and modern convenience. Excellent schools, theatres, restaurants,
shops and heritage buildings are plentiful and access to Central London is easy by car, bus and train. With its white cliffs and impressive castle, Dover is also known for its ferry port and the Channel Tunnel making travel to France and the rest of Europe
