Denton Lane, Wootton, Canterbury, Kent, CT4

A fantastic opportunity to own a unique architecturally designed property in this semi rural location within the popular village of Wootton

Tate House is a truly unique architecturally designed house. It is a large and interesting property which has striking features throughout due to its clever use of glass, wood, space and light. It offers a very adaptable approach to contemporary living with flexibility for the reception areas to be changed seasonally to suit any family configuration or gathering.

As you enter the property you are in a large and welcoming reception space. To the front of this is the current dining area, which is bathed in light having three glass walls. This part of the house overlooks the front south facing garden and makes the most of the sun on chillier days. A side door leads to a patio area.

The extensive sitting room is as large as it is high with a feature wooden ceiling. The walls offer a creative quality to the overall design, one being as tall as the house and other three having glass windows and glass doors, giving access to every area of the garden.

The large kitchen/diner, with its integrated appliances and extensive storage units, is at the front of the property. It has a feature glass wall with doors that open up onto a decking area bringing nature and the garden into the room, and the white wall in the garden creates the illusion of more space.

The utility room enables you to keep the laundry equipment separate, where you will also find the boiler room.

On the ground floor there is the fourth bedroom. The fifth bedroom/study/sitting room offers access to the Jack and Jill bathroom.

Upstairs is the mezzanine area, which is currently being used as a study with double doors onto the first floor balcony.

The master bedroom has fitted wardrobes, an ensuite bathroom, a high ceiling with atrium style windows and a glass windowed wall with door access to the balcony.

On this floor there are two further double bedrooms, one with wardrobes and one with a fitted hanging cupboard. Both bedrooms share another Jack and Jill bathroom.

To the front of the house is a driveway which can park up to six cars, There is a detached garage which has ample space for two additional cars, storage and an electric charging point. Within the garage there are two additional rooms, one currently being used as a small studio and the other as a potting shed.

Outside there is a well-stocked mature wraparound garden which is delightful. There are several areas to sit and dine, peaceful corners to enjoy, a small meadow and an abundance of lawned areas. At the far end of the garden are the allotment style vegetable and flower patches. Here you feel as though you are in the middle of nowhere listening to the sound of bird song, with a beautiful mature oak tree that canopies this part of the garden.
