Full property description
A substantial detached residence set within a generous plot of 0.28 acres, featuring beautiful south-facing gardens and offering almost 1,700 sq.ft. of spacious and versatile accommodation. Nestled in the village of Shepherdswell, the property enjoys a rural position overlooking rolling countryside, while still providing easy access to the Cathedral city of Canterbury.
Built in the mid-1980s, Golgotha has been lovingly maintained by one family over the past 11 years. They have made several enhancements, including a complete overhaul of the heating system, the replacement of many windows and doors, and numerous improvements to the garden.
The faade showcases a blend of exposed brick and dark wood-effect windows. An integral garage complements the property, and the front door is situated beneath a pillared canopy.
At the heart of the home lies a large entrance hall featuring an elegant staircase leading to the first floor. To the left, you'll find a study or guest bedroom, while to the right there is a formal dining room.
The kitchen breakfast room was fitted in 2013, and boasts an array of modern wall and floor units surrounding all main appliances, including a double range stove. A small island extends into a breakfast table, and the space is further enhanced by a utility area and cloakroom with access to both the garden and the garage.
Adjacent to the kitchen is the living room, where theres an opportunity to create a large open-plan kitchen-diner by knocking through. The living room features an electric stove and bi-fold doors that retract to reveal the expansive 120-ft rear garden.
On the first floor, youll find four generously proportioned double bedrooms, along with a well-appointed family bathroom that includes both a shower and a separate bathtub. There is also potential to extend over the garage, creating an en-suite and dressing room for the rear bedroom.
OUTSIDE:
Golgotha occupies a generous 0.28-acre plot, with a paved driveway at the front and additional parking to the right of the property, ideal for a camper van.
The garden has been thoughtfully designed to include several seating areas, including a timber-framed pergola for shade. It features a wildlife pond, a vegetable growing area, and numerous fruit trees. The garden is primarily laid to lawn, accented by colourful borders, small trees, and a patio area accessed directly from the property.

The property is sat elevated on Eythorne Road, just a few hundred yards to Shepherdswell station which has direct links to London. The village focuses on community with a local primary school, a park area, doctors surgery, village hall which hosts events including charity sales and a pre-school playgroup.
The village pub is the Grade II listed Bell by the village green, near to the church. Additionally, the village has a Co-op mini-supermarket, and you will find a hearty breakfast at the Colonels Caf on the Heritage Railway at Shepherdswell.
