A distinctive Tudor‑style country house set in about 16.5 acres (a further c.4 acres available separately), this property combines substantial family accommodation with a self-contained coach house annexe and a rich collection of outbuildings. The main house offers generous principal rooms, a recently refitted kitchen opening onto a new covered outdoor kitchen/TV area with integrated sound, and a sunroom that leads directly onto terraces and formal gardens — ideal for family entertaining and relaxed rural living.
The detached coach house provides genuine multi‑generational potential or rental income: ground-floor bedroom with ensuite, first-floor bedroom and separate bathroom, plus kitchen and reception rooms. Grounds include paddocks suitable for equestrian use, a heated outdoor swimming pool, triple bay cart barn, former water tower and summerhouse — plenty of space for hobbies, storage and small‑scale enterprise.
Practical points to note: heating is oil‑fired and drainage is private (Klargester). Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property is unlisted and will need ongoing maintenance for a range of older estate buildings; buyers should factor in servicing of outbuildings and pool upkeep.
This home will suit buyers seeking privacy, space and character — families wanting room to spread out, multi‑generational households, or buyers seeking a rural retreat with rental/annexe income potential. Its secluded position close to Woodchurch village puts local amenities and a good primary school within easy reach while remaining well placed for Tenterden and Ashford transport links.
