Property details

Full Details

St John’s House is an immaculately presented 1930’s detached property with painted brick elevations set under a tiled roof which has an interesting history, being originally built by the Church Commissioners for the curate of St Mildred’s Church, Tenterden and Smallhythe Church, which was then sold off in circa 1978. Internally the property is light and airy, with accommodation arranged over two floors comprising Kitchen, Sitting Room, Sun Room, Dining Room, Utility Room and Cloakroom on the Ground Floor and 3 Bedrooms and Family Bathroom, together with a 4th room (currently used as a Study) on the 1st Floor.
You enter the property via an Entrance Lobby which opens into the Hallway, with stairs ascending to the 1st Floor, understairs storage and access to all principal Ground Floor Rooms. The spacious, double aspect Sitting Room has an open fireplace with marble surround, leading through to the Sun Room at the rear, from which you can fully appreciate the stunning gardens which are a particular feature of this property. The Kitchen Breakfast Room is well appointed with a comprehensive range of cream coloured shaker style base and wall units including a dresser display unit, with inset sink, freestanding double electric oven and built in fridge and dishwasher. Space for further appliances may be found in the adjacent Utility Room, with Cloakroom off. In the Kitchen there are also 2 useful Pantries. The Dining Room overlooks the front gardens.
On the 1st Floor are 3 Bedrooms, the largest of which is double aspect and enjoys superb views of the rear gardens and countryside beyond. Bedroom 2 has ample built in storage and leads through to a 4th room which is currently used as a Study (with adjacent Cloakroom) but could possibly be converted to a 4th Bedroom with independent access if required. There is a Family Bathroom with bath, shower cubicle (power shower), vanity sink, W.C. and airing cupboard.

Grounds and Gardens
St John’s House is set within delightful gardens which are a particular feature of this property, with manicured lawns interspersed with well stocked herbaceous beds and borders. To the front is a gravel drive leading to the detached Garage and providing ample off road parking. A pathway leads to the front entrance and a side gate allows access to the rear gardens. To the rear is a terrace and patio area adjacent to the house, opening to the lawns, from which you can meander and fully enjoy the glorious gardens beyond. There is a timber shed and greenhouse, and to the rear end of the garden is a separate area screened by hedging, with vegetable garden and a charming seating area with an arbour smothered in clematis and roses. The whole garden is fully enclosed with a mixture of fencing, mature shrubs and hedging, thus providing a good degree of privacy and extends to approximately a 1/4 of an acre.
