Description

Dating from 1715, following the death of Queen Anne, this exceptional Grade II Listed country house is one of East Kent’s most prestigious houses.

Having been occupied and much loved by one family for nearly 60 years, this is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire an exquisite and historical property.

Hammill Farmhouse & Annexe - Set within approximately 2.67 acres, Hammill Farm offers an early 18th-Century, Grade II Listed country house comprising 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, a large kitchen with staircase to the cellars, and elegant reception rooms for entertaining including a dining room, drawing room, orangery, and a library/ study to the ground floor.

The adjoining, self-contained annexe comprises a reception room, WC and kitchen to the ground floor, in addition to a double bedroom, en-suite bathroom and access to the main house on the first floor.

Both dwellings have been well maintained over the years and are presented in good decorative order throughout; however, they would benefit from sympathetic upgrading.

Gardener's Cottage - In addition to the principal house, there is a separate 2-bedroom detached cottage within the grounds. This offers an opportunity to generate rental income on a short-term or long-term basis, or to be used for staff accommodation or guests.

Gardens & Grounds - Hammill Farm offers a multitude of outbuildings and amenities including garages, workshops/ stores, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a tennis court and a wonderful party barn.

Surrounding Area & Local Amenities - Woodnesborough is situated just 2 miles west of the Cinque Port town of Sandwich where visitors find themselves transported back in time to the days of bustling market squares, cobbled streets, and fascinating period properties. As well as the town’s rich history, Sandwich is highly regarded for its choice of schools including Sir Rogers Manwood’s and Sandwich Technology, as well as its two world-class golf courses, Royal St Georges Golf Club and Princes Golf Club which attract players and visitors from all over the world.
