Woodbine Cottage is a three-bedroom detached cottage tucked away down a no-through lane near a village church.

It has plenty of exposed beams and a number of fireplaces and there is an unusual mix of tile, slate and thatch to different parts of the roof.

A porch and hallway lead to the 12ft sitting room, which has a large brick fireplace and is fitted with a flame effect gas fire. French doors lead to a conservatory.

A second reception room has an inglenook fireplace. The large kitchen/breakfast room has a tiled floor and a stable door to the back garden. The large master bedroom has an en-suite with bath and shower attachment and the second bedroom is also a good size and has lots of built-in cupboards. The third bedroom is smaller and is used as a study.

The large and private gardens have neat lawns and a Yorkstone paved terrace.

There are mature trees including silver birch, fig, apple and damson and established shrubbery beds.

The gardens include some timber outbuildings and a greenhouse and there is a car port and driveway parking.

The cottage has a pleasant outlook at the back and the front. There is gas-fired central heating and the thatching has been recently renewed.

Woodnesborough is two miles west of Sandwich. The village has an interesting history and is thought to take its name from the Anglo-Saxon god of wisdom, Woden.
