Dublin Mews, River, – A Captivating Four-Bedroom Family Home

Nestled in the heart of the charming village of River, this stunning four-bedroom mews house offers a perfect blend of historic character and modern family living. Thoughtfully converted as part of an exclusive small development on the site of the former Dublin Man of War public house, this home retains a wonderful sense of history while providing bright, contemporary spaces that feel truly welcoming.

Step inside and you’re greeted by an impressive open-plan lounge and kitchen – the heart of the home. With stylish finishes, a striking log burner, and bifold doors opening to the sunny rear garden, it’s an ideal space for relaxed family mornings, lively entertaining, or simply unwinding after a long day. The ground floor also features a practical utility room and downstairs cloakroom, while the cleverly designed cellar rooms below offer excellent additional versatile space – perfect for a home gym, playroom, cinema room, or generous storage.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with four good-sized bedrooms, including a spacious principal suite with its own luxurious en-suite bathroom complete with freestanding bath and separate shower. A beautifully presented family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking for two cars and a pleasant rear garden – a lovely spot to enjoy alfresco dining or watch the children play.

What truly sets this home apart is its enviable location directly opposite the beautiful Kearsney Abbey and its surrounding parkland. This historic Gothic Revival manor, built in the 1820s, sits within mature, tree-lined grounds that have become a much-loved public space. With its open-air theatre, specimen trees, tranquil walks, and recent revitalisation, Kearsney Abbey provides a picturesque backdrop and wonderful community amenity right on your doorstep.

The village of River itself is highly sought-after, boasting a strong sense of community, a highly rated primary school, local shops, inns, and excellent connections via the nearby Kearsney station and A2. Part of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it offers easy access to scenic walks, the coast, and fast links to London.

This is a rare opportunity to own a home full of character in one of Dover’s most desirable villages. Whether you’re looking for a stylish family base or a peaceful retreat with history woven into its walls, Dublin Mews promises a wonderful lifestyle.
