Summary - MAYTHAM FARMHOUSE MAYTHAM ROAD ROLVENDEN CRANBROOK TN17 4QA
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Characterful family home with extensive gardens and separate studio outbuildings.
Grade II listed 18th‑century farmhouse with many period features
A handsome Grade II listed Kentish farmhouse set in about 0.67 acre of well‑planted, mature gardens. The house retains many period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and sash windows — and offers generous, versatile accommodation across approximately 2,435 sq ft, ideal for family living. The layout includes multiple reception rooms, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room, five bedrooms and useful outbuildings including garage, gym, and a detached studio with wet room.
The property will particularly suit buyers who value character and outdoor space: the gardens are productive and thoughtfully planted, with lawns, terraces, a rose pergola and a discreet fruit and vegetable area. Practical outbuildings provide excellent home‑office and gym space, plus parking for several cars. There is secondary glazing throughout and a Klargester private treatment plant for drainage.
Important practical points are set out plainly. The house is Grade II listed so alterations will be restricted and require listed‑building consent; previously approved conservatory consent has lapsed. Heating is oil‑fired, broadband speeds are very slow, and the property sits in a medium flood‑risk zone. Council tax is described as quite expensive. These factors should be weighed alongside the property’s size, character and plot.
Overall this is a well‑presented, characterful farmhouse for buyers seeking a spacious family home with extensive gardens and ancillary accommodation in a quiet rural setting, provided they are comfortable with listed‑building responsibilities and the practical constraints noted.
