Marden, Kent

A unique opportunity to acquire a substantial detached family residence, situated within the Cranbrook School Catchment Area, with the advantage of an additional self-contained, but attached, annex set in approximately 4 acres with loose box and outbuildings.

DESCRIPTION

Beech Bridge House is believed to date back to the late 1800's having been extended in later years and fully refurbished over a period of time. Full replacement double glazing was installed in February 2021. The property offers a unique opportunity to acquire a family residence but with the benefit of an attached and independent annex suitable for relatives or children. Additionally, the property has a separate side entrance leading to the paddocks to the rear, amounting to approximately 4 acres (unmeasured) with loose box, three bay tractor barn, garaging and sheds. We thoroughly recommend an internal inspection to view what is available. The property has two heating systems, one serving the main house and the other the annex. The property comes with an interesting file of historic documents.

The property is set in the popular Wealden village of Marden with its range of local shopping facilities including village stores, butchers, bakers, post office, petrol station and shop. There is an excellent primary school in the village and the mainline station offers commuter services to London Charing Cross and Cannon Street (approximately 50 minutes). The County Town of Maidstone is approximately 8 miles away providing a wider range of both leisure and shopping facilities.
