Upstairs, there are four generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully finished family bathroom fitted with a Sottini suite, including a walk-in shower, separate bath, WC, and basin. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted double wardrobes and an elegant en suite shower room, along with attractive views over open countryside.

The front is enclosed by established hedging and chestnut cleft fencing, with a private gate leading to Littlebourne Road and nearby countryside walks.

The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, featuring pleached trees, established planting, and defined areas for relaxation and entertaining. A stylish aluminium pergola with a retractable awning provides a versatile seating area, offering both shade and architectural interest, and is perfectly positioned to catch the last of the setting sun, an ideal spot for evening unwinding or entertaining.

SITUATION:

Polo Field Drive is an exclusive development of just 18 individually designed homes, ideally positioned adjacent to Polo Farm Sports Club. The property enjoys a prime location within easy reach of Canterbury and the surrounding villages of Littlebourne, Bekesbourne, Fordwich, and Bridge, all of which are within walking distance.

Littlebourne offers a strong community atmosphere alongside a range of everyday amenities, including a village shop and post office, playing field, doctors' surgery, parish church, and a well-regarded primary school. The village also benefits from a frequent and reliable bus service to both Canterbury and Sandwich. The area is also home to the popular Howletts Wild Animal Park, offering a unique day out, while nearby Woolton Farm Vineyard provides a boutique vineyard experience with tours and tastings, alongside relaxed rustic dining including wood-fired pizza and BBQ events, as well as hosting popular annual cider festivals.

Nearby Fordwich, often regarded as the smallest town in Britain, adds a unique historic charm to the area. Rich in heritage, Fordwich dates back to medieval times and was once an important port on the River Stour. Today, it offers picturesque riverside walks and period architecture, creating a quintessentially English setting. The renowned The Fordwich Arms, a Michelin-starred pub and restaurant, is approximately a 30-minute walk away via scenic routes through the nearby golf course, offering an exceptional dining experience right on your doorstep.

The nearby village of Bridge further enhances the area, offering a selection of independent shops, traditional pubs, and everyday amenities, all set within the beautiful Nailbourne valley countryside.

Canterbury, just a short drive away, is a vibrant and historic cathedral city. Its lively centre features a mix of High Street brands and independent retailers, cafés, and restaurants, alongside a wide range of leisure and cultural attractions, including the recently refurbished Marlowe Theatre.

The city is well known for its excellent educational provision, with a strong choice of grammar schools, respected independent schools, and three universities. It also offers superb transport links, with regular rail services to London Victoria, Charing Cross, and Cannon Street. High-speed services from Canterbury West reach London St Pancras in under an hour, making it ideal for commuters.
