Location is everything and this home sits within one of our favourite ones in Kent.

For us the magic never fades, the feeling of driving into a pretty little valley, water cascading down and the hillsides rising up on either side, to the western side it blends into a nature reserve. Once paper mills were the occupants, now the area provides a peaceful retreat for those lucky enough to live here.

This is one of our favourite locations for the feeling it provides and also because we are still amazed that it sits within our county town, a picturesque gem in Maidstone's crown.

This super development at Hayle Mill was completed in 2008. The mill ceased its work in 1987 after two centuries of being part of 'Paper City' as Maidstone was once referred to. A small museum commemorates the areas past.

This lovely end of terrace home is one of the 'newly built' homes created in the redevelopment of the mil. An undercroft provides a parking space for the home, visitor spaces are provided and communal gardens provide extra space to sit beside the river, read a book, chat with friends and catch up with neighbours. This is a select community, a gated environment that provides friendship and a sense of security amidst a picturesque little valley.

Here life has that gentle backdrop of water gliding past to soothe you.

A seating area to the front of this home creates a social space and a different feel to the rear garden where the afternoon sun will grace you with its presence.

French doors in the kitchen and living room encourage you to open your home and let the outdoors in, likewise in the main bedroom you can do the same and be aware of the special place you inhabit, the environment around you.

Here is a home that is easy to enjoy, as a main home, as a holiday home or as a base from which to enjoy travels away, something that you will do with peace of mind.

This is a lovely home, the pictures will show you that, the floorplan provides context and lets you appreciate somewhere that is easy to live within.

Enjoy walks into the nature reserve, you may catch sight of Kingfishers on the way, flitting across the mill pond.

We look forward to showing you around.

Get in touch if you like this home.
