THE PROPERTIES
The Barns at Ladwood Farm enjoy a private, exclusive setting in an eponymous valley deep in the Kent countryside in the heart of the North Downs.

The former farmyard is home to an extensive range of barns, including Stable Lodge, a sensitively modernised and impeccably presented 3-bedroom residence. Original period features have been retained alongside the refurbishment, which has included bespoke oak interiors, marble tiling and other high quality fittings.

Adjacent and attached is The Barn. This substantial former agricultural barn is home to two holiday cottages and a third residence. The cottages have formed the mainstay of a successful holiday letting business that sees many return visitors.

The Games Room sits in a separate building, making up the remaining wing of the courtyard which, in turn, makes a pretty, well planted Victorian style garden at the heart of the surrounding buildings. The Games Room has potential for conversion, subject to any necessary consents. The courtyard and surrounding buildings have potential for development if desired.

Beyond are the workshops, American Barn and Dutch Barn, providing further income generating opportunities. The stables and part of the grounds have been let, and the workshops have housed a number of tenants over the years. They provide great scope for future development if a purchaser wishes to further enhance the versatility of these buildings.

The land occupies a wonderful setting in this private valley, within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Included with the barns are about 15.75 acres of land that currently provides equestrian and agricultural grazing. This is all found to the west of the lane (coloured pink on the plan).

Further land may be available in addition (coloured green and blue on the plan). Details of the tenancies are available from the agents.

The property is situated in a private valley setting in a beautiful rural location surrounded by woods and farmland in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Acrise lies to the south-east of Elham which, together with Lyminge, provides day-to-day amenities. Canterbury offers a good range of educational facilities, together with extensive shopping and leisure facilities.

Transport links in the area are excellent, with the M20 providing access to the remaining southern motorway network. Stations at Folkestone Central and Ashford International provide the High Speed service into London St Pancras, taking from 55 and 36 minutes respectively. The area has good access to Continental Europe via Eurotunnel and the Port of Dover.
