We moved here about seven years ago as we love the peace and tranquility and the wonderful views. During our time here we have completely renovated and extended the property to create the gorgeous family home you see today. We converted the garage into the games room and added extra rooms including the first floor sitting room and wonderful roof terrace.The house looks amazing dressed overall at Christmastime and we have even put a table tennis table in the games room so we could seat 20 people for Christmas lunch. Although the gardens are quite large, they are easy to manage as we use a robot mower that wanders around all day keeping the grass well-manicured. While we love this house, we are moving to be nearer other family members and hope new owners will enjoy everything about this wonderful home.Although we are surrounded by the Kent countryside we are not far from Canterbury and Ashford. It is also only a three minute drive or a 20 minute walk to Chilham which includes two pubs and a good primary school plus free parking at its mainline station with access to high speed trains to London taking less than an hour.Chilham is probably one of the most beautiful villages in the South East of England with its 16th century black and white houses, The White Horse Inn and tea rooms surrounding the delightful village square. This also has gated access to Chilham castle which was destroyed except for the impressive Medieval Keep and was replaced by a magnificent Jacobean mansion set in 25 acres of delightful gardens and 300 acres of park and woodland. This was created by a number of famous designers including Capability Brown and now features an international cross country course. You will also find the excellent Badgers farm shop and cidery as well as Bagham Barn Antiques.The nearby historic city of Canterbury includes a plethora of ancient buildings, lovely pubs, restaurants and two theatres as well as a variety of high street stores and independent shops, recreational facilities such as a golf course and sports centres and two mainline stations. It also has excellent grammar schools as well as top class public schools and three universities.

From the very first moment we stepped inside, there was an undeniable welcoming spirit and the beautiful inglenook fireplace sealed our decision. As a Grade II listed property dating back to 1703, it carries with it a rich heritage. We even had the privilege of celebrating its 300th anniversary here, hosting a wonderful party to mark the occasion.During our time here, we have been careful to modernise while preserving its charm. We added a garage in the traditional Kent barn style, blending practicality with character and a new roof in 2014. In the sitting room we introduced an additional window to flood the space with light - a lengthy process, but well worth the effort. We also installed a fireplace with a solid wooden beam, in keeping with the style. In the main bedroom we added a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom. We also purchased extra land to extend the garden.. The house is full of beautiful features - exposed beams, many of which were reclaimed from old ships, each carrying its own story. My favourite spaces are the sitting room and dining room, both cosy and perfect for welcoming guests. The layout is unusual, with no passageways - each room flows into the next, making it ideal for entertaining. We are a sociable family, and friends have always loved visiting. In the winter, gatherings are held indoors by the fire, and in the summer, we entertain in the garden or by the swimming pool.The garden and orchard are wonderfully private, offering apples, plums, pears, blackberries, gooseberries, and even apricots.The village hall has offered cinema nights, children's parties, church and fund raising events, fitness classes including pilates and yoga. It's a place that brings people together in the local community. We are also fortunate to have one pub which is very sociable. All amenities are within easy reach.What we will miss most when we leave is the sense of space, the privacy, and above all, the joy of entertaining family and friends here over the years. Attwood Place has been incredibly kind to us, and we have always considered ourselves its custodians. We hope that whoever makes it their home next will love it just as much as we have.Entrance Hall Period door to front. Carpet. Plain ceiling. Stairs to lower landing.Cloakroom 4'11 x 3'3 (1.5m x 1m).

A beautifully designed four-bedroom detached home set within just under 9.5 acres of private grounds, with panoramic countryside views stretching as far as Truro and St Austell. Combining cottage-style charm with generous living space, extensive outbuildings, and outstanding potential for equestrian or lifestyle use, this is a rare opportunity in a truly special location. Accommodation Summary(Internal Floor Area: 2166 sq. ft. (201.2 sq. m.)) Ground Floor: Entrance Porch, Living Room, Open Plan Kitchen and Dining Room, Utility Room, Pantry, W.C., Sunroom First Floor: Primary Bedroom with En-Suite Bathroom, Bedroom Two with Jack-and-Jill Shower Room, Bedroom Three, Bedroom Four/Office, Storage Room. Outside: Ample Driveway Parking, Attached Double Garage, Carport, Hobbies/Games Room above the Garage, Wrap-around Garden, Summer House, Wildlife Pond, 1-acre Paddock, 8-acre Field with disused Outbuilding. Overview Designed and built in the early 2000s by the renowned local builder John Todd as his own personal residence, Woodsmoke is a rare find—an individually crafted, four-bedroom detached home combining timeless cottage styling with bespoke features throughout. Occupying a generous and beautifully positioned plot extending to just under 9.5 acres, the property enjoys extraordinary 360-degree views over the Carrick Roads and across to Truro, St Austell, and beyond.Tucked away in a peaceful and highly desirable part of the Roseland Peninsula, the home is situated just a short distance from Turnaware Point — a location of historical importance, famously used as a key embarkation point for American troops during World War II as they prepared for the D-Day landings. Today, the area remains a peaceful and unspoiled part of the Cornish countryside, offering direct access to some of the county’s finest walking, riding and sailing opportunities.The property opens with a traditional entrance porch leading into a beautifully proportioned living room, which immediately sets the tone with a striking feature fireplace with granite lintel and hearth and inset wood burner. French doors invite you out to the enclosed courtyard, while exposed wooden beams and carefully crafted recessed cabinetry with an exquisite display cabinet enhance the home’s unique charm.The kitchen/dining room is the heart of the home: spacious, welcoming, and ideally suited to both family living and entertaining. Hand-built wooden cabinetry is complemented by granite work surfaces and a classic electric AGA, adding warmth and tradition. A large utility room and walk-in pantry lead off the kitchen, with access to the rear driveway. A ground-floor WC and a sun-drenched garden room with French doors complete the ground floor, offering lovely views into the sheltered courtyard garden.Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a generously sized double with an ensuite bathroom including a walk-in shower. Bedroom Two is also a large double and enjoys the benefit of a jack-and-jill ensuite shower room, shared with the landing—ideal for guests or family use. Bedroom Three offers another full-sized double room, while Bedroom Four provides a more compact space, perfect as a child’s room, nursery or home office.In addition, there’s a large storage room which, with the addition of a skylight (subject to any necessary consents), could become a second office or creative studio.Outside The grounds and outbuildings make this property truly special. A double garage with electric up-and-over door and a pedestrian entrance opens to the courtyard. An attached open carport offers extensive covered space—ideal for storing boats, caravans, or horse lorry. Above the garage is a superb additional room, accessible via an external staircase. This space is perfectly suited for use as a games room, artist’s studio, home office, or even guest accommodation (subject to consents).To the rear, the enclosed courtyard garden has been thoughtfully designed with a wildlife pond, hot tub, and a summerhouse set cleverly into the hedgerow to take full advantage of the spectacular panoramic views over open countryside.A paddock of approximately 1 acre leads directly off the driveway, enclosed by privet hedging, and offers the perfect space for the development of a private riding area or swimming pool. Beyond this lies an additional field of roughly 8 acres, sloping gently away from the house and featuring former stables and haybarn, which could readily be reinstated into stabling for horses, and has lapsed planning permission to enlarge further.

The back garden is a sun trap, and the external fireplace means that the outdoors can be enjoyed at any time of year.
