An exceptional, 4-bedroom, newly built detached house with outstanding energy credentials, finished to an uncompromising standard throughout sitting in the heart of one of the most sought-after Kentish villages, being within the prized Cranbrook School Catchment Area.

Description - This immaculate property is a beautifully designed and meticulously constructed detached family home, achieving a rare EPC A rating with a perfect 100/100 score. Highly commended in the 2025 South East Energy Efficiency Awards (New Build category), this is a property that combines architectural quality, contemporary technology and long-term efficiency in equal measure.

The house offers four generous double bedrooms, two with en-suite shower rooms, together with a stylish family bath and shower room. The layout is both practical and flexible, with accommodation arranged around light-filled, well-proportioned spaces that suit modern family life.

At the heart of the house is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and snug area extending across the rear elevation, with triple sliding doors opening directly onto the south-facing garden. The kitchen is superbly appointed with quartz worktops, a central island, high-quality integrated appliances and bespoke cabinetry, complemented by a generous utility room with additional storage and garden access.

There is also a separate sitting room with wood-burning stove, ideal for more intimate evenings, and a further family room offering excellent versatility as a home office, playroom or occasional guest bedroom. A well-finished cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom suite enjoys a rear aspect, fitted wardrobes, dressing area and a contemporary en-suite shower room. Bedroom two also benefits from its own en-suite, while bedrooms three and four are both large doubles overlooking the High Street. A boarded loft with ladder offers future potential, subject to the necessary consents.

Externally, the house sits centrally within its plot, set back from Benenden’s attractive High Street. A resin-bound permeable driveway provides ample parking and turning, with gated access, while the south-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with a sandstone terrace, lawn, mature planting and established trees, offering both privacy and year-round enjoyment.

Built with longevity and sustainability in mind, King William House benefits from an extensive range of energy-saving and technological features including air source heat pump, solar PV with battery storage, MVHR system, EV charging, triple-glazed aluminium windows, underfloor heating and integrated smart controls, ensuring low running costs and excellent comfort levels.

Located in the heart of Benenden village, the property is within easy reach of local shops, schooling and amenities, with Cranbrook and Tenterden close by. Mainline rail services to London are available from Staplehurst, and the property lies within the Cranbrook School Catchment Area.

A rare opportunity to rent a thoughtfully designed, future-proofed village home of genuine quality.
