Summary - CLAYDENE OAST HARTFIELD ROAD COWDEN EDENBRIDGE TN8 7HF
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Private equestrian estate with outbuildings and strong energy backup.
Approximately 30 acres of mainly pasture (area to be verified)
Claydene Oast is a rare, substantial country house combining an original Oast and converted barn, set well back from the road on an extensive plot approaching 30 acres (to be verified). The house offers very large, light rooms with high ceilings and period character—exposed timbers, roundel principal suite and generous open-plan kitchen/living spaces—suited to a family wanting space, home-working options and serious equestrian use.
The grounds and outbuildings support an equestrian lifestyle immediately: stables, tack room, hay barn, sand turnout and over 3,000 sqft of additional workshops/storage. Practical resilience is strong here too — 14 solar panels with battery storage and a newly purchased 40KVA diesel generator provide useful backup power; heating is primarily via air-source heat pump with electric fan-coil support.
There are some material points to note. The indoor swimming pool and pool house require upgrading and refurbishment. The stated c.30 acres is ‘to be verified’ against title plans and should be independently confirmed. EPC currently E (49) and the house’s solid brick construction likely has limited wall insulation. Council tax sits in a high band and some outbuildings and pool plant will need maintenance.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful country home with immediate equestrian potential and modern energy resilience, best suited to buyers seeking a private rural family base who are prepared to carry out targeted refurbishment and verify land titles.
