School House Lane, Horsmonden, TN12

This delightful property has been thoughtfully upgraded by the current owners to a high standard including bespoke hard wood double glazed windows and doors throughout, considerable garden landscaping and a heritage style car port/garage with room above, perfect as a “work from home” space.

The entrance hall gives access to a study to one side which then opens into a delightful sunroom at the side of the house with pretty outlooks to the side terrace.

However the main focal point is the fabulous sitting room/dining room – a dramatic space with a cast iron spiral staircase up to the first floor, an attractive feature fireplace with log-burner and bespoke hard wood double glazed French doors and windows with marvellous outlooks to the terrace and gardens beyond. A pretty roundel kitchen/breakfast room spurs off the space with shaker style cabinetry, integrated appliances and plenty of space for a table and chairs.

On the first floor is a charming roundel bedroom and two further bedrooms which all share the family bathroom whilst the principal bedroom has a well-fitted en-suite shower room.

Outside

Approached over a long driveway off this country lane, there is a wide gravel turning and parking area adjacent to the recently completed heritage style garage/car port which has 3 phase electricity, an EV charging point and a studio/workshop. There is a very useful room above which has drainage in place so could easily be upgraded to full ancillary accommodation (subject to the usual consents). There are wide swathes of landscaped gardens, mature trees and shrubs and pathways down to varying charming and secluded terraces adjacent to the house, providing lovely areas for relaxing and entertaining.

Situation

Horsmonden has a thriving community as well as a picturesque village green, general store, chemist, pub, hairdressers, popular primary school, tennis club and village hall with numerous clubs and societies. Close by is Sprivers, a National Trust property whose grounds are open to the general public – a wonderful spot for dog-walking and there are numerous public footpaths through hop fields, apple orchards and vineyards and beautiful open countryside.

The village is about 5 miles from Paddock Wood, with its Waitrose supermarket and mainline station providing commuter services to London and the south coast. The spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells is around 10 miles to the west and offers more comprehensive shopping facilities with the Royal Victoria Place and the historic High Street and Pantiles offering a wide range of independent shops, cafes and restaurants. There is also a multiplex cinema, numerous sports and leisure centres, two theatres and golf courses, Bewl Water and Bedgebury. The house is in the much-favoured Cranbrook School Catchment Area.
