Description

Main Description

This well-maintained Grade II listed barn, originally converted in 1987, is tucked away in a peaceful rural spot just outside Sissinghurst, with open countryside all around. The property offers over an acre of garden space, including lawns, established flower beds, vegetable patches and a patio that makes the most of the surrounding views.

The setting is quiet and private, yet both Cranbrook and Sissinghurst villages are just a short distance away. The house also falls within the Cranbrook School catchment area.

Inside, the barn blends original character with practical modern features. Exposed beams and vaulted ceilings emphasise the space, especially in the main living areas. The layout flows well: to the left of the entrance is a cloakroom and access to the living room, which has an exposed brick fireplace and leads up into the dining room. From there, you step into a snug or study, with a door through to one of the two double garages – perfect for extra storage or even a home gym.

To the right of the hallway is a light-filled kitchen/diner with views over the front garden. The kitchen has been updated with quality appliances and includes a separate utility room with a door for those muddy walks or for dogs. Doors from the kitchen also open out to the rear patio and garden beyond.

Upstairs are four generously-sized bedrooms, divided between the two sides of the house. The main bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, far-reaching views, and an en-suite with underfloor heating. There's also a family bathroom on this floor.

Outside, the property includes a three-bay open car port, two double garages and plenty of parking. It’s a great spot for anyone looking for a peaceful home with space to enjoy the outdoors, while staying connected to village life and good local schools.

If You Lived Here

Sissinghurst is a small village in the county of Kent, situated with Cranbrook to the south, Goudhurst to the west, Tenterden to the east and Staplehurst to the north. Originally called Mylkehouse, Sissinghurst changed its name in the 1850s. The village shares its history with that of the nearby Wealden town of Cranbrook, having strong evidence of cloth and iron ore manufacturing activities. Sissinghurst is most famous for its Castle and the magnificent gardens created in the 1930s by Vita Sackville-West, poet and gardening writer, and her husband Harold Nicolson, author and diplomat. The Street runs through the centre of the village and is where the village pub, The Milkhouse, can be found as well as a general store and the village hall. Sissinghurst's parish church is the Anglican Trinity Church, built in 1838. The Sissinghurst Church of England Primary School is dedicated to providing an education of the highest quality.
