Full description
A magnificent detached grade II listed, 18th Century Kentish Barn and a SeparateTwo Bedroom Cottage, all imaginatively converted by the present owners from a near derelict farm building, in what has become a no expense spared project started in 1997 and finally completed in 2009. This truly, spectacular home masterfully combines character on a grand scale with the comforts and convenience only afforded in a high quality kitchen and luxurious bathrooms.
The centre piece of the home is the Reception Hall with 12’ high double glazed barn doors, in the north and south elevations that floods the vast open plan living area in natural daylight and when open bring the beautifully landscaped gardens into the home, making a perfect setting for entertaining. The adjacent sitting room features a web of structural timbers supporting roof trusses and beams to the ceiling’s apex 26’ above the polished oak plank floor and has a powerful 16kw wood burning stove, standing on a wide stone hearth. The entire property has the benefit of underfloor heating and a heat exchanger system re circulates the warmth around this double glazed and well insulated home.
