Property Description:
This charming, unlisted converted Oasthouse is brimming with character, and offers well-proportioned, light-filled accommodation enhanced by numerous exposed beams and timbers throughout, (some restricted height on 1st floor), and feature areas of herringbone brick and timber on internal walls. The property is immaculately presented and boasts a spacious entrance hall that doubles as a flexible reception area. The triple-aspect sitting room includes an Inglenook-style open fireplace, the kitchen/breakfast room provides the perfect space to entertain friends and family, with a doorway entering into the roundel feature dining room. Adjacent to the kitchen is a functional utility room giving access to the large outside entertaining space and gardens, the driveway and into the garden room. Many rooms in this wonderful home are double-aspect, ensuring ample natural light and picturesque country views.
Set in delightful gardens with a separate access to the rear pasture land, this home benefits from a mix of wooden-framed sealed unit double-glazed windows and UPVC windows, mains gas central heating (excluding the conservatory), and a private drainage system. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the unique charm of this residence.
Situation:
Approached over a private driveway, (in the ownership of Kilmaney Oast) tucked away, yet not isolated, being located within a convenient drive of numerous and varied facilities and amenities. Staplehurst Village (about 2.5 miles) offers some local facilities including a primary school, nurseries, a Sainsburys, and a mainline station with frequent direct services to London (the journey taking just under an hour), and Ashford International. Being less than 4 miles from the pretty village of Marden, again offering local facilities, and a main line to London, and less than a 20-minute drive of Maidstone, the county Town of Kent. Therefore, there is plenty of choice for excellent schooling, access to major road networks, and to many local attractions including a number of vineyards, castles and historic woodland walks.
Directions:
From the centre of Cranbrook proceed down the High Street into Stone Street, and bear left out of the Town merging with the Angley Road. At the Wilsley Pound roundabout continue straight over, for about 7.8 miles (passing through Staplehurst), and as you approach a slight right-hand bend turn left into the private drive, (identified by our for-sale board), continue and the Oasthouse will be found on your left-hand side.
