Spacious period house with extensive grounds for family living near Tonbridge.
Approximately 1.1 acre walled and landscaped gardens, southwest-facing
Set within about 1.1 acres of walled and landscaped grounds, this Grade II listed Tudor farmhouse offers generous family living with period detail and countryside views. The house extends to nearly 5,000 sq ft over three floors with eight bedrooms, three to four reception rooms, and notable features such as inglenook fireplaces, exposed ceiling timbers and multi-pane sash windows. Wide lawns, a wisteria-clad terrace and mature specimen trees create a private, southwest-facing outdoor space ideal for family entertaining and play.
Accommodation is versatile: principal reception rooms include a double-aspect drawing room with wood-burning stove, a dining hall with a striking inglenook, and a family room. The rustic kitchen/breakfast room with Aga and adjoining utility/boot room sits comfortably for everyday use. A cellar provides wine storage and plant space, and outbuildings increase scope for storage or ancillary use. Parking is available via a private shared drive with space for multiple vehicles.
This property will suit buyers seeking character and scale in a peaceful hamlet close to Plaxtol and five miles from Tonbridge station. Important practical points: Grade II listing affects alterations and may complicate extension or modernisation; the house will need sensitive upkeep consistent with its status. Broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall, the home offers significant charm and potential but is best for purchasers prepared for the responsibilities of a listed, period farmhouse.
