The Old Rectory

For me, a Victorian Rectory next to the church is a piece of old village England -- Alex Davies, Managing Director



#TheGardenOfEngland



An unlisted detached former Rectory circa 1856 situated next to the church in the rural village of Burmarsh. The house enjoys a stunning aspect across fields towards the escarpment and along the old Saxon shoreline with views of the Roman ruins and Lympne Castle.



An unlisted detached former Rectory circa 1856 with later additions and believed to have earlier origins. The house enjoys considerable character of the period with many original features intact. From some rooms there are wonderful views over the gardens and across a rural landscape towards the Lympne/Aldington escarpment.
Houses of these proportions, age and style are rarely available in rural Kent villages and can be highly sought after.

The property is approached via an electric gate from the lane onto a sweeping driveway with plenty of off-road parking and access to a large four-car garage with room over. The wonderful gardens extend widely around the house with a delightful pond, timber workshop store, and well.

There are a good variety of trees together with both a meadow and orchard containing rare cider apple trees, and other fruit and nut trees. There are ancient hedges filled with Sloes, Hawthorns, wild Roses, Bilberries, and Blackberries. The gardens have also been encouraged to serve as a nature reserve with a productive organic ‘no-dig’ growing area for the household. In all about 2.45 acres.
