High Street Wingham Canterbury CT3 1BU

An elegant Grade II listed village house with a wealth of charm and character, occupying a prominent position at the heart of Wingham’s historic High Street. The property is deceptively spacious and has been carefully extended and thoughtfully updated over time, now offering a compelling combination of period charm and contemporary comfort. Internally, the accommodation is beautifully presented throughout and offers a wealth of period features such as exposed beams, high ceilings and feature fireplaces. A welcoming entrance lobby opens into a charming study, an ideal retreat for quiet reading or home working, while a beautifully proportioned dining room offers the perfect setting for both formal entertaining and everyday use. The kitchen/breakfast room is attractively fitted, offering a pleasing balance of traditional style and modern practicality. To the rear, a generous inner hall leads to a ground floor shower room and in turn, to the principal sitting room, a wonderfully light and expansive space spanning with views over the garden. The ground floor further benefits from a well-positioned bedroom with a garden outlook, conveniently located adjacent to a smartly appointed ensuite bathroom with matching suite comprising bath, w.c and wash hand basin. On the first floor a spacious double bedroom sits to one side of the landing, with a w.c opposite. A further staircase rises to a delightful top floor bedroom, well-proportioned and filled with natural light. The property benefits from gas fired central heating and a number of rooms benefits from secondary glazed windows.

Externally, to one side, a private brick-paved courtyard offers a quiet space for morning coffee, softened by mature planting. The principal garden lies to the rear, an unusually secluded and generous space, thoughtfully landscaped with lawns, mature trees, shrubs, flowering plants, and a paved patio, ideal for summer entertaining. A timber garden shed and greenhouse provide useful storage, while a pedestrian gate leads to a double carport accessed via a discreet private roadway connecting back to the High Street.

The property is situated in the quintessential East Kent village of Wingham, offering a rich blend of architectural heritage, local amenities, and rural charm. There are independent shops, a bakery, two public houses, a highly regarded primary school, and attractive countryside all within walking distance, while the nearby Cathedral City of Canterbury provides a wider array of facilities, and easy access can be gained to the A2 towards Dover and the M2 to London.
