Situation Lilyvale is a tiny leafy hamlet of well regarded properties arranged along a country lane on the edge of the popular village of Smeeth. The village is just below the North Downs about 5 miles to the south east of the thriving market town of Ashford and only 8 miles from the Channel Tunnel. There are popular primary schools in the neighbouring villages as well as a choice of both state and private schools including grammar schools in Ashford. The town also provides modern retail outlets together with access to the M20 Motorway and Ashford International Station (London St. Pancras 37 minutes). The Cathedral City of Canterbury is about 12 miles to the north with its cultural interests, universities and further range of schools. Cherry Trees A most attractive, unlisted country house believed to date back to the 1820 s and having been the subject of later additions. The current owners have improved and maintained the property superbly, retaining considerable character. The accommodation benefits from a good balance of double bedrooms and reception rooms. The sitting room has an open log burning stove in a limestone surround, the dining room has a wood burning stove and there is an oil fired Aga in the kitchen/breakfast room. The ragstone walled cellar has niches racked for wine storage. From many parts of the house there is a fine aspect over the gardens and grounds which gently slope away to the south.

Gardens The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway flanked by a useful range of garden stores and a 2 bay cart lodge garage, all built in timber and tile. The gardens extend to both sides of the house with many mature trees including oak mulberry walnut and fig. There is also a most delightful walled vegetable garden with a greenhouse.
