For Sale4 Bedroom Detached House in St Marys Meadow, Wingham, Canterbury, Kent Ct3 1df£850,000

This has been a truly wonderful family home for the past six years and we have been delighted to refurbish the property and purchase additional land to create such a special place. It is a friendly community where neighbours look out for each other. We have regular events such as street parties and there is a mix of age groups as families like ours with young children appreciate the quietness and security that a cul-de-sac affords. It is also a very safe area with delightful places to go for walks and only a short stroll to the village high street. Here you will find an Indian restaurant, two pubs including the Dog Inn, winner of the 2019 Great British Pub award, the Wingham Central Stores, the Wingham Country Market as well as a surgery and dentist. There are also a multitude of societies and sports clubs including the tennis club and a recreation ground. For a day out with the family the Wingham Wildlife Park is only half a mile outside the village, while it is not far to the excellent Gibsons food hall, farm shop and café as well as the Duke William pub in the next village. The village is very picturesque with its historic St Mary's Church that includes 13th century arches, thatched cottages, medieval hall houses and handsome Georgian buildings with around sixty houses built before 1760 and many dating back to the 1400s. There is a well-regarded local primary school in Wingham and nearby Adisham primary is rated Outstanding by Ofsted. While excellent grammar schools can be found in Sandwich, Dover and Canterbury and top private schools in Dover and Canterbury. This historic city also includes three universities and a further education college as well as high street stores, individual shops, restaurants, ancient buildings and two mainline stations where the high speed train from Canterbury West will whisk you to London in under an hour. There is also a station at Adisham and frequent bus services go between Sandwich, Deal, Dover and Canterbury. The A2 is not far if you want to drive to London or to Dover and Folkestone for the Continent while the Cinque Port town of Sandwich with its medieval buildings, shops and championship golf courses is also within easy driving distance.
