Description
Cottleston Farm is a substantial and elegant countryside residence set within approximately 2.5 acres (TBV) of mature, beautifully stocked gardens. Approached via its own private driveway, the property benefits from generous parking space for multiple vehicles. A secondary pedestrian entrance adds convenience and accessibility to the layout.
Following over 30 years of cherished ownership, the land has been thoughtfully reconfigured with two outbuildings having been separated and are being converted into private residences to be retained by the current owners—allowing them to downsize whilst remaining rooted in this stunning rural location.
The property offers a well-proportioned and versatile internal layout:
A grand Reception/Dining Room spanning circa 13.85 m × 5.6 m (45'4″ × 18'3″)—ideal for entertaining or family gatherings.
A spacious Kitchen measuring approximately 6.4 m × 3.4 m (21'0″ × 11'3″), adjacent to a useful Utility Room (3.34 m × 3.22 m / 10'11″ × 10'7″)
Six well-scaled bedrooms:
Bedroom 1 (largest) with an impressive en-suite, measuring 7.65 m × 4.08 m (25'1″ × 13'5″).
Bedrooms 2 through 6 range from approximately 3 to 4.6 m in length, providing flexible accommodation for family, guests, or home office use and all (bar one) with fitted wardrobes/storage.
A central family bathroom serves bedrooms 2-6 & guests.
The property has fifteen solar panels located on the SE roof above the living area.
Planning permission (24/03269/FULL) has been approved for a triple garage block and a substantial extension incorporating the courtyard and a loft extension to provide a large, first floor bedroom with en-suite and resulting in significantly increased usable loft storage area.
This property represents a rare opportunity: a spacious, adaptable home with scope for further development, with substantial grounds, set in a highly regarded location that seamlessly blends rural peace with community spirit, beautiful scenery, and commuter practicality.
Location
Nestled within an idyllic rural setting on the outskirts of the desirable village of Pembury, bordering the picture-perfect village of Matfield and within easy reach to Tunbridge Wells with its extensive amenities and rail connections, this address offers a perfect blend of rural tranquillity without compromising on convenience and connectivity.
Pembury lies just off the A21, offering scenic country living with easy road access towards London, the M25 and major motorway networks.
The nearby village of Matfield boasts one of Kent’s largest and most picturesque village greens, complete with a charming duck pond and surrounded by tile-hung cottages and Georgian architecture.
Both villages and surrounding area sit within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offer superb walking, cycling, horse-riding, and a wealth of outdoor activities through woodlands, orchards, and rural lanes.

In Pembury: a central village green and conservation area, a handful of shops (newsagent, pharmacy, local post office), healthcare facilities (doctors, dentists, vets), and community clubs ranging such as football and cricket. There is also the convenience Tesco superstore in the village.
Excellent pubs and eateries: The Camden Arms (family-run inn and award-winning pub), The Black Horse (renowned for its Sunday carvery), and King William IV with its large garden. Nearby Notcutts Garden Centre also offers shopping, plants, and a café.
In Matfield: traditional local provisioning such as a butcher, grocer, and two quality pubs—The Star and The Poet (a stylish gastropub)—plus a Grade II-listed village church.
