Summary - The Barn, Marden Road, Staplehurst TN12 0PD
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Large gardens, garage workshop and excellent commuter links to London.
Detached 5-bed barn with attached 2-bed annexe, separate entrance
A spacious five-bedroom detached barn with an attached two-bedroom annexe, set on a very large, landscaped plot close to Staplehurst village centre. The main barn offers vaulted, double-aspect living with exposed beams and a mezzanine study, while the annexe provides independent two-bed accommodation with its own entrance — ideal for multi-generational living, home office rental income or flexible family use.
Outside, the long driveway, plentiful off-street parking and large garage/workshop (power and light installed) suit car owners, hobbyists and small-scale projects. The gardens wrap around three sides of the property, include a private courtyard with pergola and a pond, and provide significant scope for outdoor entertaining, play or further landscaping.
The house is characterful but shows its age in places and would benefit from updating. Double glazing was fitted before 2002 and walls have only partial insulation assumed, so improving thermal performance and modernising finishes could be necessary. The annexe has a separate gas supply but shared water and electricity; there is also a right of way to permit access to a nearby electricity substation — important practical points for buyers to note.
Located within walking distance of shops, primary schools and Staplehurst station with direct services to London, the property balances rural character with good commuter links. Council tax levels are high (main barn Band F), and the area records higher crime levels than average, which prospective buyers should factor into their decision.
