Sellers Insight Little Caerlicken has been part of my life since my childhood. My parents bought it when I was twelve, and eleven years ago I took the house on myself and carried out a complete renovation.” “The area is rich in history, with several ancient fortresses nearby, the name Caerlicken itself means “the fortress of Licken”.” “I could always see the potential in this house. Built in 1565, it is a rare Elizabethan long house. While its history and character are extraordinary, what truly makes it special is the location. Overlooking the Severn Valley, the views are simply breath taking. On a clear day we can see across to Bristol, Clevedon, Westonsuper- Mare and even as far as the Devon coast. You can see for miles, and it never stops feeling special.” “When we moved in, we completely renovated the house, taking it right back to the earth and rebuilding from the bottom up. It is now a 500-year-old home with all the comforts of modern living. We also converted the barn into a self-contained annex.” “As you drive down the lane towards the house, the view opens up in a way that truly takes your breath away.” “My favourite room in the house is the dining room and conservatory which was part of the extension - it has bi-fold doors that open onto the garden. In the summer, when the doors are open, it feels as though you are dining outside. We love sitting there, watching ships come in from the Bristol Channel and looking out across the landscape for miles.” “My wife is a flower farmer and the garden is something very special. There is an orchard with apple, cherry, damson and mulberry trees. Wildlife is everywhere with many birds visiting, including some unusual ones. We even have woodpeckers, yellowhammers and an owl, which feels truly magical. Being on a hillside also means birds of prey often circle above. The garden is part of the National Garden Scheme, and we have opened it to the public before, raising money for charity - something we are very proud of.” “This home is made for entertaining. We have held Notley Fest here for my wife’s 40th and in the years since. My daughter was married here too, with a huge marquee - many guests said they thought it was a wedding venue, but it is simply our home.” “We have wonderful neighbours, always ready to help one another. My wife is part of several ladies’ groups - walking, book and dinner club and there is always something happening, especially at the village hall.” “What I will miss most is everything: the garden, the space, the privacy and the tranquillity. This has been a very special home to us. You can see so much from here, yet hear almost nothing. It is a very special place.” https://w3w.co/builds.encloses.tickling

I really liked the light and airy atmosphere of the house when I first opened the front door and then walking through and seeing the river and the views over to Solly’s that almost seem as though the park was actually in the back garden, I knew this was the place for me. I also like the kitchen because everything is easily to hand as it was originally designed by a previous owner Audrey Eyton – author of the F-plan diet. While when I close the curtains to the conservatory in the evenings, I find the sitting area very warm and cosy. As I thought I would be living here for the foreseeable future, I have had the flat roofs over the conservatory and the kitchen replaced but sadly I am having to move for health reasons. The location is also wonderful as I can stroll to the city centre om just a few minutes and meet friends and family for a coffee or visit the nearby Marlowe theatre without needing to take the car or even get on a bus. At the same time if you want to get to London the fast train from Canterbury West will transport you to St Pancras in under an hour and it is not far from the A2 for Dover and Folkestone for trips to the Continent. As well as the cathedral there are a wide variety of other historic and interesting attractions to see including the Canterbury Norman Castle, St Augustine’s Abbey, Canterbury Heritage Museum, the Westgate, The Beaney House and the Canterbury Roman Museum. The city also has a wide variety of high street stores, individual shops and plenty of restaurants and bars as well as two mainline stations and there is an excellent doctor nearby. The city is also home to two theatres, three universities and numerous state schools, including three excellent grammar schools and a number of private schools.
