Summary - HALL OF THE COURT JESTER, HIGH STREET CT4 6TD
7 bed 1 bath Detached
Exceptional countryside location with strong conversion and income potential.
Grade II* Tudor building with original beams and inglenook fireplaces
Set in the heart of Elham village within the Kent Downs AONB, this Grade II* former inn offers a rare commercial/residential asset. Recently renovated, the property retains original timber framing, inglenook fireplaces and exposed medieval beams, presenting strong character-led appeal for hospitality use or a single grand residence subject to planning.
The ground floor includes a thriving layout for trade: two bar areas, split-level restaurant seating for around 40, a snug, extensive trade kitchen and cellar with original baker’s oven. External front and rear trade spaces plus off-street parking for six extend usable footprint for guests and outdoor service. Five en-suite letting rooms and a separate two-bedroom flat currently provide adaptable accommodation.
This is a practical prospect for an investor or developer. A full premises licence is in place and mains services connect. The business has recently been closed and historic trading accounts are not available; any purchaser must form independent trading or income assumptions. Planning enquiries are advised if considering conversion into a single residence (STPP).
Important constraints: the Grade II* listing will restrict alterations and may complicate conversion; interested parties should factor listed-building consent requirements and potential costs. Despite excellent village amenities, broadband is average and any specialist restoration or rewiring work must respect historic fabric.
