Property description
A unique opportunity to acquire this striking unlisted Oast House located within one of the most sought after areas within the Weald of Kent. For those looking for history and charm without compromise on space or location, then this property certainly fits the bill. Many buyers know "the one" as soon as they step through the door, and this home is no exception. If the walls could talk, they would reminisce of simple pleasures like hearty breakfasts in the dining area before school, gossiping over a coffee in the kitchen area or fabulous dinner parties in the impressive ground floor roundel dining room (currently used as the lounge). There's a huge amount of space in the garage for all of life's equipment too, as well as a handy utility area, great for hiding muddy boots. Heading upwards, the accommodation is hugely adaptable, with the first floor roundel bedroom having previously been used as a lounge. There will be no fighting between for the best room, as all offer their own unique charm. The third floor is perfect for teenagers wanting to hideaway, or even as an annex area for a live-in nanny, should you so require. Outside is equally as fantastic, with the hillside garden and decked area enjoying spectacular views beyond. The miles of surrounding fields and public footpaths allow kids and pets to run off some energy, with none of the maintenance that period properties usually require. With parking for two cars to the front, and a further two at the end of the shared driveway, there's plenty of parking.
What the Owner says:
When we first viewed this home we completely fell in love with its situation and character - it truly is the country home we always aspired to own. We've replaced the oil tank, installed double glazing and landscaped the garden - the garden is glorious in summer months and we often have friends over for barbecues and drinks. We are positioned perfectly within walking distance to Sutton Valence Village (and the nearby private school), and beautiful countryside walks. With both Headcorn and Staplehurst such a short drive away, commuting is easy, although with a high speed internet connection, working from home is an option too. Our priorities have now changed with work and growing our business so a new challenge awaits us.
