This converted oast house sits on just over 0.75 acre at the edge of Groombridge, combining countryside privacy with easy access to village amenities and Tunbridge Wells. The heart of the home is an exceptional open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area with four sets of French doors, an inglenook fireplace and an Everhot oven — ideal for family living and entertaining. Five double bedrooms include a principal suite with dressing room and en suite, plus a second en suite in the roundel.
Outside there are thoughtfully landscaped zones: a pond, garden kitchen, greenhouse, summerhouse and elevated terraces that maximise views across open countryside. Practical features include a substantial oak-framed garage with an office above and a large driveway. Modern comforts such as FTTP broadband, mains gas heating, a wood burner and a vaulted utility room are already in place.
Important practical notes: sewerage is handled by a domestic/small sewage treatment plant, and the property’s double glazing install date is not recorded. The plot and external features (pond, greenhouse and outdoor kitchen) will require ongoing maintenance, and council tax is noted as quite expensive. EPC rating C. Overall this is a characterful, spacious family home for buyers seeking rural living with strong local schools and good commuter links.
