The Dairy is a stunning barn conversion adjoining beautiful countryside and forms part of an exclusive collection of converted farm buildings, situated within a peaceful semi-rural location on the outskirts of St. Nicholas-at-Wade.
A home of exceptional quality and 'WOW' factor, you will find it hard to rival this unique property which covers an impressive 2065 sq ft (191.8 sq m).
A spacious entrance hall leads through to a kitchen/diner which runs from front to back and proves to be the beating heart of this property. Despite it's size, the large lounge has wonderful sense of cosiness to it and features a contemporary log burner which is a real focal point whilst French doors open onto the garden.
A downstairs bedroom and wet room concludes the generous ground floor.
Moving upstairs and the spacious landing could easily be utilised as a study area. There are three more double bedrooms up here, notably the impressive main bedroom with its spectacular rural views via a stunning picture window whilst a sleek contemporary family bathroom completes this beautiful home.
The rear garden backs onto fields and a working farm, providing a great space to enjoy during the summer, whether that's barbecuing, entertaining or just relaxing and taking in nature in all its glory.
Countryside walks are available via footpaths which cut through the fields and lead down to the sea where you can pick up on the promenade between Minnis Bay and Reculver.
Location:
Nestled between the seaside towns of Birchington and Herne Bay and historic Canterbury is the semi-rural village of St Nicholas at Wade. Originally named after the Patron Saint of sailors, it is reputed that there was once a channel of water one had to wade across to reach the village. St Nicholas is proud of its village hall dating from the 1930's and its sports field with cricket pavilion in Bell Meadow that hosts cricket matches and of course, not forgetting the Church dating back to Norman times. If you're looking for rural village life that is still only a 10-minute drive to the beautiful Kentish beaches and 20 minutes to historic Canterbury, then this could be the ideal spot for you. St Nicholas boasts one of the most sought after primary schools in Thanet with an outstanding Ofsted report, two local pubs serving exceptional food and a village shop with post office. The high speed rail link and M2 to London are also only a short drive away along with regular and varied bus routes both in and out of Thanet. Properties vary from unique period cottages to prestigious barn conversions with family houses and detached properties with land. St Nicholas at Wade is an extremely popular area catering for those looking for a quieter pace of life but is still near enough to satisfy those who need to be close to all amenities.
