Period charm with modern finishes, large plot, outbuildings and barn conversion potential.
Grade II Listed; sympathetic full refurbishment throughout
A rare Grade II Listed country home finished to a high standard, offering three double bedrooms and character features such as exposed beams and a brick fireplace. The owners have completed a sympathetic, comprehensive refurbishment that blends period charm with modern fixtures and built-in eco features, so much of the heavy lifting has already been done.
Set on a very large plot, the property includes a heated double garage with flexible office space above, a useful garden/kitchen store with boiler room, and a substantial detached Kentish barn with genuine conversion potential (subject to planning). Electronically gated access and extensive off-street parking add privacy and convenience, while the gardens wrap around the house and are neatly landscaped for low-maintenance country living.
Practical considerations: the house has Listed status which will affect alterations and maintenance approaches; the barn conversion will require planning permission and is not permitted as-is. There is a single bathroom for three double bedrooms, council tax is noted as quite expensive, and broadband speeds are average — factors to weigh depending on your needs.
Located a short walk from High Halden village centre and amenities, and around 9 miles from Ashford (with high-speed rail to St Pancras), this chain-free property suits buyers seeking a distinctive rural home with workspace potential, large private grounds, and scope to add value through permitted projects.
