What the Owner says:

We moved here in 2001 and it has been a great place to bring up our family but it is now time to downsize. We love the character of our home and the peace and tranquillity as well as the surrounding countryside for great walks around the Chislet marshes. We are quite close to Upstreet with the Grove Ferry Inn, village store, post office and a regular bus service while Chislet includes a good primary school with secondary schools in Herne Bay, Canterbury, Thanet and Sandwich. High speed trains from Herne Bay station can whisk you to London in under an hour and a half.
