SITUATION: The Flintstones is set within the beautiful Kentish village of Doddington, which offers a rich and varied history, and incorporates some handsome architecture including Doddington Place Gardens, renowned for its well kept buildings and grounds. It is also part of the wider Kent Downs, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
The village dates back to the 11th century and is centred around the 14th century Chequers Inn, now owned by the famous Faversham brewery, Shepherd Neame, which is popular for its excellent ales and hot food. The village boasts an award-winning butchers, a garage/ petrol station with a shop, as well as a regular bus service to the neighbouring villages and the larger town of Faversham.
There are a number of primary schools in nearby villages such as Lynsted, Milstead and Teynham, and the nearest secondary schools are in Lenham and
Faversham. The village is also well positioned for access to the larger towns of Maidstone and Ashford, and for links to both the M2 and M20, which are also nearby.
The nearest main line stations are at Lenham and Teynham which are both about four miles away, where trains take as little as 1 hour and 8 minutes to London Victoria.
Faversham is just 6 miles away and is an historic and charming market town which offers a wide variety of shopping facilities including both specialist and national retailers and a bustling market three times a week.
It has its own cinema, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a cottage hospital and an excellent range of primary and secondary schools, including Faversham’s renowned Queen Elizabeth Grammar School. For sailing enthusiasts, the town has a charming tidal creek and quay.

OUTSIDE:
The house is set within a generous plot of approximately a quarter of an acre and is set back from the road behind an attractive brick and flint wall. A mature front garden provides additional screening and a gravelled driveway offers off road parking for several cars.
To the side of the house, a timber five bar gate opens onto a large block paved driveway which provides additional parking
for numerous vehicles and leads to a detached double garage. This has twin double doors and has been sensitively weatherboarded to blend in with the rural setting as well as the main house.
The block paving continues along the rear of the house, creating a superb area for outdoor entertaining, whilst also allowing access to the outdoor heated swimming pool. This has a decked surround and is partly enclosed by pretty white picket fencing.
The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn, with mature flower and shrub borders, enclosed behind a low level flint wall. There is a vegetable garden with several raised beds, a greenhouse and a further ‘secret garden’ with decking and a timber shed.
