This has the potential to make a fantastic equestrian property - James Hickman, Rural & Equestrian Property.

#TheGardenOfEngland

A rural property with approximately 3 acres of pastureland comprising a converted Grade II listed former farm building which provides characterful & comfortable accommodation on one level.

The property is situated in a rural location just under 1 mile from the popular Stalisfield Green and is one of 4 properties which were formerly part of historic Derbies Court Farm.

Approximately 3.35 acres

The Lodge is situated just off a country lane about 1 mile to the north of Stalisfield Green on the North Downs within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, now known as Kent Downs National Landscape. The area is known for its open landscape of arable and pastureland fields interspersed by areas of woodland. Despite being very rural, the area is accessible to the A20/M20 to the south and the A2/M2 to the north with Faversham, Ashford and the Ashford International Station with high speed trains to central London, Maidstone and Canterbury all within relatively easy reach by car.

The property is one of 3 conversions forming part of what used to be Derbies Court Farm, all of which are Grade II listed. The principal features of the property are the lovely open plan sitting/dining room with woodburning stove and the fully fitted kitchen. There are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Gardens

There is a lawn garden to the front with a driveway giving access to the single garage. To the rear is a patio and the main lawn, and to the rear of this is a raised orchard area with mature fruit trees & bushes and a garden workshop.

Paddocks/Land

Beyond the gardens are 2 fenced enclosures suitable for keeping poultry or other small animals. A pedestrian gate gives access to the land which has a separate vehicular access through a five bar gate only a short distance along the lane to the south. There is potential, if one wished, to divide the land into more paddocks and add stabling and/or a field shelter, subject to obtaining planning consent. There have previously been a field shelter on skids and a shepherd’s hut placed on the land.

Footpaths

A footpath (No ZR449) passes behind the rear of the gardens of The Lodge & the adjoining property and then runs along the northern boundary of the land.
