Crossways, Eastry, Kent
Set within approximately 4.67 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland, Crossways offers exceptional privacy and flexibility, comprising the main house, a detached cottage and a lodge with double garage, together with further garaging and workshop space. The arrangement is ideal for multi-generational living, holiday lets or guest accommodation. There is also a former laundry house, which could be converted to additional accomodation (Subject to consents).

Originally built in 1873 as a cottage hospital, Crossways is an un-listed rare and striking Arts and Crafts–influenced home, believed to have been commissioned by Lord Northbourne and designed by George Devey. Constructed of brick and flint with distinctive chimneys, the property was converted to a private residence in the 1950s and, in more recent years, all three homes have been extensively and sensitively renovated, preserving the building’s architectural integrity while enhancing modern comfort.

The Main House
Approached via a sweeping driveway and striking arched entrance, the main house offers light-filled accommodation arranged over two floors. Highlights include elegant reception spaces with original fireplaces, a generous dining hall, a dual-aspect sitting/dining room and a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with French doors opening onto the terrace.

There are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom, supported by additional bathrooms, a study, snug, boot room, utility spaces and extensive storage.

The Cottage & Lodge (un-listed)
The detached cottage, originally the nurses’ residence, now provides a charming and comfortable self-contained home with sitting room, kitchen/dining room, bedroom suites and a private garden. Adjacent to the double garage, the lodge offers further independent accommodation arranged over two floors, ideal for guests, home working or rental potential.

Gardens & Situation
The gardens are beautifully landscaped with sweeping lawns, terraces, fire pit, mature trees, woodland walks and a summer house, creating a peaceful and highly private setting.

Crossways is situated in the popular village of Eastry, which has several everyday amenities including a local shop, Post Office, village hall, chemist, village pub and primary school. The charming town of Sandwich offers further facilities, including a selection of shops and supermarkets, along with excellent schooling such as the Ofsted Outstanding-rated Sir Roger Manwood’s School.
