Property Information

Built in 1732 during the reign of George II, St. Christopher's is beautiful detached residence in the historic village of Herne with pleasant views of the Church of St. Martins to the rear.
This Grade II Listed property exudes charm with period features and is steeped in history with a most wonderful homely feel throughout.
There are two principal reception rooms, a study and large kitchen/diner sprawling across the rear of the property whilst a bathroom and WC concludes the generous ground floor. The kitchen has a beautiful outlook across the rear garden and the church. In addition, a door from the kitchen leads down to a very handy cellar with power and light.
An original Georgian balustrade staircase rises to the first floor which presents two large double bedrooms and another bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms occupying the second floor.
Externally, the property enjoys a 100' (30.7m) established rear garden that backs onto the church and proves to be an absolute haven with a good degree of privacy.
A driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a large detached garage with power and light.
Properties of this calibre within this historic village centre are rarely found on the market, we therefore recommend an early viewing appointment to avoid disappointment. Call the sole agents, Kent Estate Agencies to arrange your viewing appointment.
