Description
Steeped in history and believed to date in part from 1623, this exceptional Grade II Listed attached home, formerly known as The Weavers House, is a truly special family residence, combining centuries of character with generous and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors.
Set within an idyllic rural village and surrounded by beautiful countryside, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity, while remaining well placed for village amenities, schools and excellent commuter connections.
From the moment you step inside, the history and personality of this remarkable home are immediately apparent. Original beams, exposed timbers, stripped wooden flooring, high ceilings and impressive fireplaces sit beautifully alongside the generous proportions of the accommodation, creating a home that is both characterful and wonderfully inviting.
The welcoming sitting room is a particular highlight, featuring a high beamed ceiling and magnificent feature fireplace housing a Franklin wood-burning stove — the perfect setting for cosy evenings and relaxed gatherings. From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the dining room, where the staircase rises to the upper floors and a useful cloakroom is discreetly positioned beneath the stairs. The kitchen/breakfast room provides the heart of the home, fitted with attractive handmade units and enjoying direct access to the private kitchen garden. With ample space for everyday family life and informal dining, this is a room designed to be enjoyed throughout the day.
Elegant Bedroom Accommodation
The first floor is home to the principal bedroom, an especially impressive room benefiting from a raised dais, creating a wonderful vantage point from which to enjoy the far-reaching views across the gardens and surrounding countryside.
The principal bedroom also benefits from a stylish three-piece en-suite shower room.
A further double bedroom occupies this floor and is served by the family bathroom, complete with a beautiful cast iron roll-top style bath, adding to the timeless character of the property.
The top floor continues the sense of charm, with a beautiful beamed landing providing space for a home office or study area, together with a guest cloakroom and useful airing cupboard.
Two further generous double bedrooms complete the accommodation. Both bedrooms retain attractive timber beams and wood-stripped flooring, while enjoying lovely views across the surrounding countryside.
Gardens & Grounds
The gardens are undoubtedly one of the property's greatest attractions.
A private kitchen garden opens onto a secluded patio, providing the perfect spot for morning coffee, summer lunches or evening drinks. Beyond this lies a beautifully established garden with mature lawns, well-stocked flower and shrub borders and a number of established apple trees — remnants of what formed part of the property's original orchard.
Mature mixed hedging provides privacy and definition, while the established planting creates a wonderfully peaceful and secluded environment throughout the year.
Beyond the principal gardens lies a further area of additional grounds extending to approximately three acres in total, owned and maintained by the Vendor and one neighbouring property. This provides a rare opportunity to enjoy an exceptional amount of surrounding land in such a picturesque village setting.
There is ample parking to the front of the property, with access provided via a gravel driveway approached over a right of way leading from Barn Hill.
The Village & Surrounding Area
The setting is every bit as special as the house itself.
This charming village retains a strong sense of community and is steeped in agricultural history, with a collection of historic and listed buildings contributing to its distinctive character. At its heart stands St Mary's Church, parts of which date back to the 13th century, providing a beautiful historic focal point for the village.
Village life is centred around the church, the well-regarded primary school and village hall, with a range of clubs, societies and community activities providing an excellent sense of belonging. Nearby playing fields and the surrounding countryside offer plenty of opportunities for walking, exploring and enjoying the peaceful rural environment.
Despite its wonderfully rural atmosphere, the property is also conveniently positioned for those needing to travel further afield. A choice of mainline railway stations can be reached within easy driving distance, while the County Town of Maidstone is approximately 15 minutes by car, providing an extensive selection of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and everyday amenities.
The location therefore offers an appealing balance of traditional village life, open countryside and convenient access to larger towns and transport links.
A Rare Country Home
Properties offering this combination of historic character, generous family accommodation, beautiful countryside views, mature gardens and substantial additional land are increasingly rare.
This is a home with genuine personality and a fascinating history, offering a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the charm and tranquillity of village life while having the space and flexibility required for modern family living.
A truly distinctive Grade II Listed home, set within an enchanting rural environment and surrounded by beautiful gardens and countryside.
