Kingsnorth Manor Farm is a late‑medieval timber‑framed country house set within about 4.5 acres, offering generous family accommodation across the main house and a detached circular Oast annexe. The main home provides five bedrooms, three reception rooms and period features such as exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and leaded casements, while the Oast House offers two circular bedrooms and a separate kitchen — with consent already in place to combine the two buildings into a single, very spacious residence.
The plot includes substantial outbuildings (coach house, stores, open barns), formal lawns, orchard, vegetable garden, pond and several seating areas, creating strong potential for entertaining, hobby farming or ancillary development subject to consents. Practical positives include off‑street parking, ground‑source heating with radiators and double glazing installed since 2002.
Buyers should note a few material limitations: the property’s solid brick/timber walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is described as quite expensive. The estate’s historic fabric and multiple outbuildings will require ongoing maintenance and any further conversion or works will need appropriate planning permission and listed-building considerations where relevant.
This property suits a family or buyer seeking a characterful country residence with land and development potential — someone who values privacy, period detail and substantial external space, and is prepared to invest in modernising services and insulation to fully realise the home’s long‑term comfort and energy performance.
