Evegate Manor is a rare Grade II listed manor blending more than 700 years of history with generous, liveable proportions. The main house offers six double bedrooms, multiple reception rooms with exposed beams and fireplaces, a large utility and cellar, plus a fully boarded 42 sqm attic suited to storage or conversion. A self-contained annex with its own garden provides flexible accommodation for guests or income use.
The grounds are a defining feature: a heated swimming pool with retractable roof, hot tub, patio and landscaped areas create year-round outdoor living, while four stables (one currently used as a gym), a greenhouse and gated field access offer genuine equestrian and hobby potential. The property sits on a large plot in peaceful countryside yet remains well connected — Ashford International, the M20 and nearby towns are all within easy reach.
Practical realities are straightforward and important. The listed status protects historic fabric but will restrict alterations and can complicate consent and maintenance. The house and extensive grounds will require ongoing upkeep; some areas benefit from updating rather than cosmetic refresh. Broadband speeds are very slow — important for anyone needing reliable high-speed internet.
For buyers after character, space and versatility — families, buyers seeking ancillary income, or those wanting a small estate with equestrian use — Evegate Manor offers scale and history. Expect a property that rewards sympathetic investment and sensitive stewardship rather than a low-maintenance, modern turnkey home.
