Fairmans Lane, Brenchley, Tonbridge, Kent

Nestled in 2.3 acres of gardens and woodland and surrounded by gorgeous countryside in the High Weald area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this delightful 17th Century unlisted period home has been lovingly restored by the current owners. It is approached via a gated driveway from the country lane, leading to parking for several vehicles with an electric car charging point and a detached tandem garage with power and light.

The charming entrance hall leads past the downstairs cloakroom and a cosy Snug with cheerful white painted timbers and a lovely aspect overlooking the front garden. The elegant and beautifully proportioned living room is full of period features with oak timbers that carry through into a sympathetic extension. The Inglenook fireplace with its wood burning stove is a great focal point.

The heart of the home is a stunning Kitchen and open plan Conservatory/Dining room. The kitchen area is fitted with marble worktops and stylish modern units designed to match the oil-fired Rayburn cooker. Wide engineered oak floorboards lead the eye through into the generous Conservatory/Dining room that is flooded with natural light. This is a lovely big room offering plenty of space for a large dining table ideal for entertaining and for family gatherings. It also offers wonderful views over the gardens and grounds which can be accessed via French doors that lead onto a generous composite wood decking area. This area creates a fabulous outside entertainment area overlooking the lawns, the lake-fed stream and onwards to light woodland.

Upstairs a split level landing gives access to three of the four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a superb size brimming with character with delightful exposed timbers and a triple aspect. There is plenty of storage space in the fitted wardrobes and is served by a smart en suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms include a charming bedroom with exposed timbers overlooking the front garden and one overlooking the rear garden. Both are served by a stylish modern bathroom. On the second floor, and lent great character by the shape of the roof, is the fourth bedroom with access through to the attic.

Outside the property really comes into its own across its 2.4 acres. The large grassed area above the drive has a very impressive enclosed swimming pool styled to resemble an agricultural barn and designed for year round use as well as a versatile outbuilding with a kitchen area and toilet.

What the Owner says:

We have loved living the good life in the country for almost 20 years. The taste of free range eggs from sellers nearby inspired us to keep our own hens as well as other animals including pigs, lambs, Runner Ducks, geese, turkeys and honey bees. Our children and grandchildren have loved and enjoyed all the animals we have kept over the years.

We walk into Brenchley by way of a public footpath where there is a post office/ general store and the Little Bull coffee shop/wine bar/B&B, there is also an excellent doctor's practice.

Paddock Wood train station is about ten minutes drive with lots of parking and trains run into London Bridge, Charing Cross (45 minutes) and a Cannon Street.

Paddock Wood has a Waitrose supermarket adjacent to the station, a family run Department store Barsleys as well as a Tesco Express, Costa Coffee, Greggs The Bakers, Dominos Pizza, Post Office, a Nationwide Building Society and numerous hairdressers and smaller retailers.
We walk to The Half Way House which has won the CAMRA Best West Kent pub for most probably the last twenty plus years and the Hopbine with a growing a reputation as as one of the best gastropubs in the area.
