Etchinghill lies at the Southern end of the parish of Lyminge, maintaining a rural feel with the surrounding countryside forming part of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is a wealth of walks, rides and cycle routes and a community hall provides a cinema club and other activities. The focal point for the village remains the local pub / restaurant and the well-used local golf course. A regular bus service runs through the centre of the village giving access to the south, to the Channel Tunnel town of Folkestone and Ancient Cinque Port town of Hythe on the coast, with a charming old High Street and a range of independent shops, while to the north, will be found the historic cathedral city of Canterbury. These all offer an extensive range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, together with the high-speed train services to London St Pancras. Access to the M20 is from Junction11.
This beautifully presented chalet-style property offers versatile accommodation that has been thoughtfully enhanced over the past few years. A perfect blend of traditional charm and contemporary updates, including new windows, a modern fitted kitchen, a driveway, and open-plan reception rooms with wood-burning stove. The property’s design has been carefully considered to add both character and functionality. The accommodation is deceptively spacious, with an entrance hall that connects two reception rooms. The rear reception room features doors that open onto a charming patio area, leading to the garden beyond. The kitchen is extensively fitted, featuring integrated appliances and a Range cooker. A separate utility area adds to the convenience, along with the added benefit of a ground-floor bedroom with en-suite facilities. Upstairs, the first floor offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom. The property has an added benefit of planning permission (22/0549FH) for a rear and side extension if required.
The property sits very handsomely on its generous plot and is approached through a neat lawned front garden with a pathway leading to the front verandah. There is ample driveway parking and turning for several cars leading to a detached garage. The rear gardens provide a tranquil and private setting of lawn, trees, mature shrubs and a generous patio for outside dining.
All main services are understood to be connected.
