The house is set back from its own private road with no through traffic behind a generously sized gravel driveway, providing ample off-street parking for several vehicles. At the front is an area of lawn, and terracing. The side rear garden which faces west and looks out across the neighbouring fields, features a level lawn flanked with a variety of shrubs with a patio for outdoor dining. The property also comes with 1.66 acre paddock, accessed via a short track adjoining the property. There is a paved terrace at the front of the house, which has a south-facing aspect and welcomes plenty of sunlight.
The property is located in the small and peaceful community of Hodsoll Street, close to the larger village of Vigo in a picturesque rural position on the edge of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The larger village of Meopham has further amenities including an good-rated secondary school, while both Gravesend and Sevenoaks are within easy reach, offering a range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities.

Seller Insight
I would describe Hodsoll Street as a country oasis harking back to days gone by when the county of Kent revelled in its status as the Garden of England. I grew up here and my family farmed the land from 1943 to as recently as 2010, in honour of this strong attachment, meticulous care and attention to detail was taken throughout the design and build process. My father and uncle owned this yard and it is named after them to pay homage to our association to the area, says the owner.

The scruffy, open-framed barns have been replaced by two beautiful properties that sit within the conservation hamlet of Hodsoll Street in land adjacent to an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The style is the result of bespoke architecture designed to match the local vernacular of red brick and weather boarding, we took everything into consideration, even ensuring that the roof elevation did not protrude above the low-level barn that it replaced and emphasis was placed upon clean, open plan comfortable living. Double doors from the kitchen lead out to the attractive walled garden which offers a high degree of privacy.
.
The garden is simple to maintain and is an absolute sun trap perfect for relaxing with coffee and croissants in the morning whilst listening to the sound of birdsong. The master bedroom set within the eaves is elegant and characterful and the flexible accommodation could be utilised as bedrooms or even as a study to work from home. Ideally positioned for easy access to London by road and rail, Gatwick airport, the seaports of Sussex and Kent and the Channel Tunnel. The convenience of the location belies the nostalgia of the bucolic setting which is in close proximity to excellent schools and facilities. Sevenoaks is a delightful town around 25 minutes away by car which has a wide range of amenities, including shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.
.
Positioned just off the historic village green, Brothers Yard is adjacent to a charming valley with far reaching views to the west. There are many enjoyable walks through scenic countryside and the area is a paradise for horse riders with a plethora of bridleways and equestrian facilities. I think the best thing about the location is that it provides escapism from day-to-day life, it’s an extraordinary feeling to drive along the busy A227 and then find oneself quickly transported back 100 years upon entering this tranquil little undiscovered patch of the Garden of England.
