The Russets, Chestfield, Whitstable
Well positioned within a sought-after development in the heart of the village of Chestfield, this attractive detached family home is just a few minutes stroll from the 18-hole golf course and the historic 14th-century barn, now converted into a popular public house and restaurant.

A separate dining area adjoins the lounge while the good sized kitchen provides access to the dining room and includes a communicating door to the annexe. To the first floor are four double bedrooms with the en-suite bathroom and family bathroom having been recently refitted to a high standard.
