Frognal Farm Barns, Teynham

An exceptional new family home created from the conversion and restoration of a magnificent Grade II listed 16th Century barn, in a desirable rural location on the outskirts of Teynham from where it commands fine views over adjoining farmland.

Plot 3 Frognal Farm Barns is one of four substantial houses, each providing light-filled, open-plan living spaces finished to an exceptional standard throughout to compliment the heritage of the building. Of particular note are the vaulted ceilings to the first floor, which display the fine craftsmanship of the roof structure and are finished in rough-sawn sarking boards.

The extensive accommodation extends to 2646 sq ft (245 sq m) and is arranged on the ground floor to provide a generous living/dining room, a handmade kitchen, separate utility room and a cloakroom. The first floor provides four double bedrooms, three bathrooms including two en-suite shower rooms.

Outside, the gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped with natural stone terraces which overlook the adjoining countryside, and within the courtyard to the front of the property, there is a private parking area for several vehicles. A timber open barn provides a further parking space and a charging point for electric vehicles, and additional storage.
