Woodnesborough, Sandwich, Kent, CT13

An exceptional Grade II listed country property with a range of outbuildings and set within approximately 2.67 acres.

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 and 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 two 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.
