#TheGardenOfEngland

A fine Victorian residence with income potential, set within delightful gardens of approximately 0.64 of an acre, moments from the heart of New Romney.

Occupying a prominent position on a generous corner plot, Martinfield Manor is a substantial and versatile detached Victorian home extending to approximately 5,752 sq ft (534.4 sq m), including a self-contained two-bedroom annexe and outbuildings. Arranged over three floors, the property offers extensive accommodation with eleven bedrooms (seven en suite), four elegant reception rooms, and beautiful landscaped gardens. Part of the property is now being used as private residential occupancy and was previously used as a guest house & residential living.


This handsome late 19th-century home retains a wealth of period detail, including high ceilings, decorative cornicing, picture rails, and original fireplaces. The principal house enjoys a graceful flow of accommodation well-suited to both family living and entertaining on a grand scale.
The ground floor includes an impressive entrance hall, a large formal sitting room and dining room, a 24’ breakfast room with bay window, and a fitted kitchen with adjoining utility room. A further ground floor bedroom with en suite shower room is currently used for guest accommodation. To the first floor are six further bedrooms, five with en suite facilities, all with pleasant garden or front-facing views. A further four bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy the second floor, enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.
The property is further enhanced by a substantial two-bedroom annexe of approximately 1,072 sq ft, ideal for multi-generational living or generating additional income. This separate dwelling includes a kitchen/breakfast room, a 17’ sitting room, a conservatory opening onto the gardens, and a shower room. Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a cloakroom, with generous eaves storage throughout.
Gardens and Grounds
The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of Martinfield Manor, extending to approximately 0.64 of an acre. The property enjoys a secluded, southerly aspect with expansive lawns, mature trees, and a paved terrace ideal for outdoor entertaining. A swimming pool (not currently in operation) and garden outbuildings, including two storage sheds, provide additional amenity. The driveway offers ample off-road parking for several vehicles.

Location
Ideally located on the edge of New Romney’s historic High Street, the property benefits from easy access to the town's wide range of shops, cafés, and amenities, whilst retaining a semi-rural charm. The nearby Romney Marshes offer scenic walking, close proximity to beach walks and cycling routes, while transport links are excellent: Ashford International Station is just 14.5 miles away, providing high-speed services to London St Pancras in under 40 minutes, also benefitting from the charming New Romney railway.
