Property description

The perfect blend of modern elegance, class and 17th century character.

Set in the idyllic countryside village of Wingham Well, Rats Castle is a 17th Century, grade II listed, thatched country home with a two storey extension added to the side of the property which would serve perfect as annexe as it benefits from a designer shower room and show room kitchen.

The preservation of the period features is most impressive and they blend in effortlessly with more modern day fixtures and fittings. It's certainly a house for all seasons, a home you will want to invest your time in heavily. It is a tranquil location that will provide a haven from the day job and yet it is only 6 miles from the vibrancy of Canterbury city centre with all the useful transportation links that go with it.

The house is rich in exposed beams with almost every room in the main building featuring them prominently. To the ground floor, there is a lounge with inglenook fireplace, a dining room with French doors opening onto the garden, a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and then via a lobby (mind your head!) you can access a beautiful bathroom with under floor heating and Travertine tiling plus a large family room that feels more contemporary and is the start of the potential annexe.

To the first floor in the main house there are three well proportioned bedrooms all with very unique features and a first floor wc to save having to go downstairs in the night! To the first floor of the later addition there is a fourth bedroom with access out to the rear garden (thanks to the differing levels in the garden at the back) plus there is a contemporary three piece ensuite. A perfect place for an older child or elderly relative.

The gardens sit to all four aspects of the house and total just over 1/3 of an acre, backing onto open farmland with a easterly, southerly and westerly aspects. They are mature and inviting with numerous areas to sit and enjoy the sun or entertain friends. There is an abundance of parking with a sweeping gravelled driveway leading to a rear courtyard.

There are added extras such as chickens in a coop and a sauna in the log cabin.
