Great Barn Court, Water Lane, Ospringe, Faversham, ME13

A rare opportunity to acquire a remarkable Grade II* listed medieval barn in the historic village of Ospringe, on the edge of Faversham, offering immense potential to create a truly exceptional home. Dating back to the 1400s, this striking building forms part of the area’s rich architectural heritage and provides a unique canvas for sympathetic restoration and conversion.

The barn offers an impressive proposed internal floor area of 535 square metres and retains a wealth of traditional character, showcasing the scale and craftsmanship typical of medieval agricultural buildings. Planning permission has already been granted for conversion, making this an exciting and increasingly rare opportunity to transform a historic structure into a stunning contemporary residence while preserving its heritage.

Externally, the property includes planning for a 141 metre square 8-bay garage, further enhancing the versatility of the site, while the main building also includes a self-contained annex.

The barn sits on a generous plot of approximately 0.51 acres, offering space for landscaped gardens and outdoor living areas. Importantly, the property already benefits from connected services including electricity, water, and sewage, simplifying the development process.
Situated in a conservation area in the sought-after village of Ospringe, the property enjoys a charming semi-rural setting while remaining conveniently located for local amenities, transport links, and access to the wider Kent countryside via nearby Faversham.

Opportunities to purchase buildings of this calibre are seldom available. This is a chance to own and preserve a piece of local history, creating a truly outstanding home or potentially multiple dwellings in an exceptional historic setting.
