Summary - 2 DENSTEAD OAST CHARTHAM HATCH CANTERBURY CT4 7SH
4 bed 2 bath Not Specified
Large, characterful family home with sauna, hot tub and versatile living space.
Grade II listed converted Oast with original cones and exposed brick
This Grade II listed converted Oast is deceptively spacious, offering almost 3,406 sq ft of flexible family accommodation across multiple levels. Original character is retained in the exposed brick cones and beams, while a vast open-plan kitchen/living area and two large reception rooms give scope for family life and entertaining. The property includes a workshop, utility and lower-ground bedrooms that suit multi-generational living or home working.
Outdoor space is private and landscaped, with the notable extras of a sauna and hot tub for relaxation. A garage and driveway provide parking in this quiet hamlet setting, surrounded by orchards and countryside walks. The house sits about a 10-minute drive from Canterbury city centre and is close to Kent College, appealing to families wanting country tranquillity with school access.
Important practical points are clearly stated: the property’s Grade II listing will restrict changes and may complicate alterations or extensions. The fabric is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, and broadband speeds are slow — factors to budget for if you plan upgrades. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the plot is small relative to the house size, so outdoor scope is limited.
For buyers seeking character, scale and rural privacy, this house offers a rare combination of distinctive architecture and versatile living spaces. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the interior proportions and workshop potential, but buyers should factor in listed-status constraints and likely refurbishment or energy-efficiency improvements.
