Description

SUMMARY
We are delighted to present Gooseberry Hall, an impressive four-bedroom detached country residence set within secluded grounds of approximately one acre. This exceptional home also has approved planning permission for a separate two-bedroom bungalow, ideal for multi-generational living or investment

DESCRIPTION
Nestled in the charming village of Nonington, Gooseberry Hall Cottage is a beautifully presented period home that combines character and generous living space in an idyllic countryside setting. Surrounded by scenic walks, just a short stroll from the local pub, and within easy reach of well-regarded schools, everyday amenities and Sandwich private beach, approximately 20 minutes away, the location offers an exceptional balance of rural tranquillity and modern convenience.

Inside, the property is rich in charm, with high ceilings, Edwardian arches and exposed beams complemented by plenty of natural light throughout. The spacious living and dining rooms connect effortlessly, each enhanced by log burners and perfectly suited to both relaxed family living and entertaining. The impressive vaulted kitchen is a particular highlight, featuring extensive work surfaces, a pantry, storage and double doors opening onto the patio.

The accommodation includes four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal suite enjoying far-reaching countryside and windmill views, together with a walk-in wardrobe. A family bathroom, a versatile study known as the "Sunshine Room", and ground floor shower room further add to the home's flexibility and appeal.

Outside, the property sits within around an acre of beautifully maintained grounds, including a field lined with silver birch trees, attractive gardens, patio and entertaining area, ample parking, and an original well.
