Lot 1 Penstock Hall
Situated in one of the most favoured areas close to Ashford, with the award winning Five Bells pub and ancient Norman Church at its heart, East Brabourne is the epitome of the English village. Set at the foot of the North Downs in an AONB, Penstock Hall offers a unique opportunity to acquire a fully restored farmstead.
Listed Grade II, the house has five bedrooms and sits in a very pretty, well established garden with natural swimming pool and tennis court. It is believed the house dates from circa 1450. The current owners have much improved and extended the property to provide for 21st century living.
A generous full height hall leads to the principal rooms. To the rear is a wonderful custom-built kitchen/breakfast room, off which is the family room, which overlooks the rear garden. At the front of the house are two very impressive timber-framed rooms used as the dining room and drawing room respectively. Off the hall is a light and airy conservatory.
An impressive oak stair case lead to the first floor where there are five bedrooms (four with en suite bathrooms). A secondary staircase leads to the second floor where there are two further rooms.
The Barns and Annexe
Situated around a charming courtyard and facing each other are the East and West Barns (also Grade II Listed) These ancient timber-framed buildings have been lovingly restored to showcase the wonderful honey coloured beams to their full advantage. The East Barn is a fully functional party barn with kitchen and WC. The West barn is currently laid out and used as offices.
Attached to the house, and adjacent to the West Barn, is the annexe, comprising two rooms, a kitchen and a cloakroom.
Lot 2
Opposite the house there is a 3.38 acre paddock
with road access.
One or more adjacent buildings may be available in addition by separate negotiation.
The gardens are a delight and are a lovely setting for the house. To the rear is a sheltered terrace for alfresco dining. Steps lead up to the lawn and the natural swimming pool, a greenhouse, summer house, and hard tennis court which is tucked away in one corner of the garden out of sight from the house.
A small coppice area lies at the end. Long distant views over the Downs can be had from across the garden.
Sought after East Brabourne is a relatively unbuilt-up village, with an open dispersed street scene. The village school is about half a mile away and Ashford, with a plentiful supply of services, about 8 miles distant. Canterbury is a little further, some 12 miles away, but is readily accessible via Stone Street.
