About this home

Occupying an exceptional elevated position within the Kent Downs National Landscape, Postling Lodge is a substantial country residence approached via a private driveway and surrounded by rolling countryside, mature woodland and far-reaching rural and sea views. The property combines impressive scale with privacy, whilst remaining conveniently positioned for access to Folkestone, Canterbury and the Channel Tunnel. Originally constructed in 2009 as a significant detached residence the house has been considerably extended by the present owners creating a living space, with attached annexe accommodation, of approximately 8,000 sq ft and sits within extensive grounds of around 12 acres, offering an outstanding lifestyle opportunity in one of East Kent’s most picturesque rural settings. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and has been comprehensively enhanced, with a series of approved extensions and leisure additions creating a versatile family home suited equally to entertaining and modern country living. Planning consents have included substantial side and rear extensions, leisure facilities including a helicopter hanger and landing pad, swimming pool accommodation, together with landscaped grounds, substantial terrace area incorporating an outside kitchen, and gated access improvements. Externally, the grounds provide a wonderful sense of space and tranquillity, incorporating formal gardens, paddocks, woodland boundaries and sweeping lawns, all enjoying a breath taking backdrop. The elevated setting at Farthing Common affords exceptional privacy and an attractive outlook across the surrounding countryside. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
