"On the outskirts of Pembury, in an AONB is this charming Grade II Listed country property. Probably dating from the 16th century with later Victorian additions, the house has delightful period features but has been sensitively updated. Nestling in the midst of about 0.75 acres, the farmhouse is approached via a driveway flanked by beech hedging that leads to the detached double garage and a pathway to the pitched roof porch and period front door.
Upstairs is a family bathroom, a separate shower room and four double bedrooms that all have fitted cupboards. The dual aspect principal suite is accessed via a staircase from the dining area and includes a vaulted ceiling, built in wardrobes, beams and an ensuite bathroom.
Outside is a contemporary garden room with wi fi, heater air conditioning, wood flooring and bi fold doors, while the garage includes a store room and first floor storage facilities. The front garden features a large lawn with mature shrubs while the south facing rear garden has a terrace surrounded by lawns, shrub beds and trees.
What the Owner says
We have so enjoyed living here for the past eight years and have taken great pleasure in enhancing the interior and creating the cinema. We love the character of the property and the location as we are five minutes stroll from woodland with its delightful pathways and walks. We can even walk through the woods to the nearby village of Matfield and visit either The Star, a traditional English pub, or enjoy a fine dining meal at The Poet, a delightful and quintessential gastropub housed in a charismatic 16th century building.
Although we are in a semi rural environment, we are only a short distance from the A21 for access to the M25 and only about a mile to Pembury. The heart of the village centres around the village green and it maintains its unique character with historic buildings from the 12th century through to the modern homes built in the 20th century. There is a useful convenience store as well as a post office, newsagent, vet, chemist and hairdresser and three pubs, other eateries and the Camden Arms Hotel, while excellent local produce is available from the Downingbury Farm shop. In addition there is a doctor s surgery, riding stables, a nursery and primary school as well as a junior football club and cricket club, a bridge club and the Pembury Players for those with a theatrical bent, while the comparatively new hospital is nearby.
We are just three and a half miles from Tunbridge Wells with its delightful mix of independent shops, bars and restaurants, high streeRoom sizes
