Description
A delightful Oast conversion thoughtfully converted, circa mid 1990's, to offer a light, well proportioned and charming family home with many character features including beams and timbers, wall mounted original Hop boards, solid wooden flooring, and wooden internal doors. The large sitting room has an attractive brick fireplace with gas fired 'woodburner' providing a cosy family space to relax, there is a useful study and the dining/family room which has aspects onto both front and rear gardens flows into the feature roundel kitchen providing a social and useable space for cooking and entertaining. All 4 double bedrooms have their own en-suites with the triple aspect roundel bedroom having an imaginative spiral staircase leading further up into the roundel to provide a spacious feature en-suite bathroom. We understand that the Oast cowls were renovated in about 2018. Set in a semi rural yet convenient location in between the popular town of Cranbrook and the sough after village of Benenden, set back, and approached over a private farm driveway which leads into an enclosed private rear garden with good off road parking. To the front the large natural pond provides a beautiful setting edged by mature planting, lawn, and seating areas. There is a large attached timber outbuilding considered suitable for a number of uses.
Situation
Semi rural location on the outskirts of the village of Cranbrook which benefits from a good range of amenities including doctors' surgeries, dentists, banks, a leisure centre, schools and the town's noted landmark, the Union Windmill. Staplehurst mainline station is about 5½ miles offering frequent services to London (the journey taking about 1 hour) and Ashford International. The A21 and A229 road networks give access to the M25 for Gatwick and Heathrow airports and the M20 to Dover and Ashford International Station. As recorded in Michael Davies' splendid and extensive 'Benenden - A Pictorial History' the village was one of the few places in the area known as the Weald (of Kent) that was named in the Domesday book. Benenden offers amenities including a village owned and run store, a butchers, and throughout the summer cricket is played on the green providing a quintessential Kentish scene - visitors can take visit the thriving Bull public house and restaurant and have a stroll around the historic village church.
