The property is situated in a beautiful rural location surrounded by woods and farmland in a designated AONB. Acrise lies about a mile SE of Elham which, together with Lyminge, provides day-to-day amenities. Canterbury offers a good range of educational facilities, together with extensive shopping and leisure facilities.
Transport links in the area are excellent, with the M20 providing access to the remaining southern motorway network. Stations at Folkestone Central and Ashford International provide the High Speed service into London St Pancras, taking from 55 and 36 minutes respectively.
Approached over a series of quiet country lanes, a five-bar gate leads to a large parking area to the front of the stables, the drive continues to a further parking area next to the garage. A large detached outbuilding comprises a double garage, hobby room/studio and The Banda, a self-contained annexe with living room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and shower room.
The garden has been lovingly created by the current owners to provide an apt setting for this wonderful hilltop home. The owners have created a series of “rooms”, including a Sissinghurst-style white garden to the rear. To the front pathways meander through profusely stocked shrub and herbaceous beds all interspersed with a variety of specimen trees. A large paved terrace, is the perfect spot for entertaining and al fresco dining, the whole enjoying far-reaching views over the property’s stock-fenced acreage and neighbouring countryside.
