The Property
This is a substantial detached country house
with period origins to which an additional wing
has been incorporated in more recent years.
Internally the property has retained much of its
original delightful charm and character,
including
numerous
exposed
timbers,
fireplaces and ledged and braced doors.
The extensive and delightfully rambling
accommodation includes a cosy sitting room
with Jetmaster Calor gas fire and timber floor.
The dining room is a fine and graceful room,
being equally suited as the principle reception
room if preferred. The flooring here is part
mellow brick and part oak. There are also
fireplaces at each end of this room, being of
brick set in timber surrounds.
The kitchen/breakfast room is fully fitted with
oak fronted wall and base units with a
Rangemaster cooking range, natural wood
flooring and recently replaced propane gas
fired boiler.
To the first floor will be found a master
bedroom suite with en suite, four further
bedrooms with two further bath/shower
rooms. This floor is accessed via two separate
staircases leading either from the dining room
or the rear hallway.
An internal viewing is highly recommended to
truly appreciate all this fine property has to
offer.
Situation
The Willows is set in a private tranquil spot
having total seclusion without being remote.
The area forms part of the Kent Downs Area of
Outstanding Natural Beauty over which there is a
wealth of walks, rides and cycle routes. Stelling
Minnis has its own general store/post office,
public house/restaurant, sought after primary
school, community hall and ancient windmill. A
bus service runs through the village connecting
to the Cathedral City of Canterbury to the north
and, to the south, to the Channel Tunnel town of
Folkestone.
Each of these offers excellent
shopping, recreational and educational facilities,
together with main line train services to London.
The high speed rail link to St Pancras has
brought the travel time to the capital down to
some 60 minutes. Just a little further afield is the
expanding business centre of Ashford, from
where St Pancras may be accessed within 37
minutes, whilst the Eurostar Connection here
provides easy access deep into Europe.
Outside
The property is approached over its long
driveway with gravel parking, turning area and
ample space for erection of garaging subject to
obtaining any necessary permissions.
The gardens and ground include a useful
attached brick built store, together with a good
size timber framed workshop and further various
stores, summerhouse and in ground swimming
pool.
The gardens are principally laid to sweeping
lawns, beds, shrubs and mature trees with
paved sun terracing and backing on to farmland.
Directions
From the centre of Stelling Minnis head towards Bossingham. After about
1/3rd of a mile or so there is a small un-named track on the right hand side.
Proceed along this track over Minnis land for a few hundred yards taking
the first gated turning on the right hand side, which is the private drive to
The Willows. The property itself is still not readily visible at this point but
will be found at the end of the driveway.

Mains water and electricity connected. Private drainage. Propane gas
fired central heating.
