Catkins
Catkins is a substantial detached 5 bedroom bungalow occupying a secluded plot of just under 2 acres and provides spacious accommodation currently lending itself to dual occupancy. The main part of the dwelling has three bedrooms whilst there is a good sized 2 bedroom integral annexe which has its own living/dining room, kitchen and en suite bathroom. The two parts of the accommodation are joined by a boot room with a single connecting doorway. Having a dual occupancy facility fits perfectly with a multi-generational family who might want to run the cattery together.
Outside
The property is approached through secure entrance gates with a tarmac drive providing customer parking bays and then leading to the bungalow where there is a large parking area, giving access to a Double Garage which is divided into two parts, comprising a workshop with a small office to the rear and a single garage with shelving. To the rear of the garage is an open fronted section opening to the rear garden. There is a lawned garden to the front with further lawned areas to the side and rear, where there is also a patio.
Cattery
The cattery has been running for over 30 years, and is licenced for 76 cats, there are 22 double bays including the isolation bays, 13 single bays and 5 family bays. The cattery has a long standing and loyal customer base many of whom travel long distances to bring their cats for boarding. Catkins is ideally located between London and the Channel Tunnel/Dover so is an easy drop off being within easy reach of both the M20 & M2.
The cattery is generally full in July, August, September and October and particularly busy at Easter & the October half term holiday and other seasonal times. Gross income figures and net profit figures will be available at the time of viewing. In addition to the 40 ‘bays’ the cattery also comprises a reception building with kitchen & WC together with litter and feed stores. The owners would be prepared to help with the handover of the business after the sale. Further information about the cattery can be found at
Note: The seller’s stock of Cat food and litter will be available in addition at valuation.
Summerhouse
Close to the cattery is a summerhouse which has been converted for occasional living and provides a kitchen/living area, bedroom and shower room.
Stables
At the rear of the bungalow is an ‘L’ shaped stable block comprising two standard stables, one foaling box, one tack room and a small hay store. These in their own concrete yard to the rear of which is the site of a former Riding Arena which could easily be re-established. There two grazing paddocks for horses, ponies or small livestock.
