What the Owner says:
We loved creating this charming home with the aim of building something that was very low maintenance but highly energy efficient and it includes 14 solar panels with back up batteries. The location is wonderful because it is so peaceful with plenty of places to go for walks or to the beach. The village has a post office, shop, surgery, pubs and a bus stop at the end of our road. There are community activities and an Outstanding primary school, while excellent grammar and private schools are available in the nearby towns.
It is not far to Dover and the Channel Tunnel or Martin Mill station for the high speed train to St Pancras and only a short drive to Deal while Canterbury is within easy reach. There are excellent sailing clubs in Walmer and Dover and a variety of first class golf clubs.
