Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Dover, CT15 :

Originally built in the 1980s in the grounds of the adjacent Black Swan Manor, this incredibly spacious property needs seeing to be fully appreciated. It is understood the wife was American and you can immediately see the American design influence as you walk into the massive 19ft square reception hall with its high ceilings, extra wide sweeping staircase and huge window almost spanning the two floors.

The whole place has been created with leisure in mind. If you are outside you could be sitting on one of the four terraces soaking up the sunshine. Alternatively you could be having a swim in the fabulous heated pool which, due to the retractable pool enclosure can be enjoyed all-year-round. Inside, the impressive main lounge with its stunning and unusual continental-style fireplace and the elegant dining room flowing through to each other and out into the conservatory or directly onto a terrace, creates an excellent venue for even the largest party, a formal dinner or a celebratory get-together. However, the family are likely to congregate in the large, well-fitted and friendly kitchen/ breakfast room with its door to the conservatory and arch through to the useful laundry room with access to the double garage-cum-workshop.

The downstairs bedroom/sitting room and adjacent shower room could make an excellent mini-apartment for elderly relatives, older children wanting their own space or even staff living in. This could be particularly useful for anyone considering this property as their country retreat but needing it looked after in their absence. While anyone working from home will be delighted with the light and bright shelf-lined office and where they can see visitors approaching the electronic front gate that provides excellent security for the property.

Upstairs is equally spacious with a galleried landing large enough for a seating area and four very sizeable double bedrooms. This includes a guest suite, the modern family bathroom and the stunning 20ft master with its lovely views across the countryside, luxurious bathroom including a roll-top bath, twin basins and a walk-in wet room. Off one of the bedrooms is the potential to access the enormous boarded attic which spans the entire house that could provide additional accommodation if required. Additionally, from one of the other bedrooms there is the possibility of accessing the boarded attic space above the double garage.

What the Owner says:


We fell in love with the property the moment we saw it about five years ago. We will definitely miss it when we leave but we have decided to move to France. What really sold it to us initially was the size of the rooms and the peaceful surroundings. The house is tucked away up a private drive in 0.72 acre of grounds surrounded by the easy-to-maintain garden
and overlooking the Kentish countryside.
West Hougham is a very friendly village and there’s always a lot going on in the village hall including a popular ‘pop-up’ pub once a month, a regular fish and chip van and nearby playing fields for the children. There are plenty of places to walk the dog and, for anyone interested in horses, there are a number of livery stables and riding schools in the area, including an American riding centre next door to the adjacent bridlepath. We’re only four miles from Folkestone and Dover for access to the Continent, shopping, entertainment, great schools and main-line train stations.
There is also a school bus that goes from the village for both primary and secondary children and for anyone who likes local produce there are two excellent farm shops a short drive away.
