The Old Fairground, Wingham, Canterbury
RIVERSIDE SETTING... Tucked right away and backing onto a picturesque riverside setting is this bespoke newly built home.
Finished to an exacting standard using only the finest materials, the property has a low carbon footprint thanks to passive technology reducing overall energy consumption and promoting the highest level of thermal comfort.
The property covers an impressive 2035 sq ft (189 sq m) and the spacious entrance hall with its double height aspect provides an immediate sense of grandeur. The definite hub of the home is the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted by 'Roma Interiors', featuring integrated 'NEFF' appliances and quartz worktops complimented by solid ash and oak framed panelled units.
The living room boasts a wonderful outlook over the garden which abuts onto Wingham River and features a brick fireplace with log burner. Double doors then open into the separate dining room which may also prove useful as a study. A very handy utility room and cloakroom concludes the generous ground floor.
An attractive staircase rises from the entrance hall to an impressive galleried landing which presents four double bedrooms (master en-suite) and a family bathroom. All bedrooms have a pitched ceiling and beautiful views of the river are enjoyed from the Master Bedroom and Bedroom Two. 'Roca' sanitary ware is found in the bathroom, en-suite and cloakroom.
Other features include engineered oak flooring, underfloor heating to the ground floor, Cat 6 cabling for Sky Q, external lighting on timers and high performance windows doors.
The rear garden is the perfect blank canvas for those green fingered and an absolute paradise for nature lovers with the tranquil waterside setting. The garden extends down one side with a concrete hardstanding which could provide the base for a garage or car port if required (subject to necessary consents). Ample off-road parking is provided to the front of the house via the gravelled driveway.
Internal viewing is essential to not just appreciate the quality of build, but also the stunning setting and lifestyle this home has to offer. Call Kent Estate Agencies to arrange your viewing appointment.
