House For Sale £1,300,000
A detached twin roundel oast filled with character and charming features situated close to the popular village of Lamberhurst, with a pleasant garden of just under 1.5 acres and far reaching views across adjoining farmland to the rear.
Owls Castle Oast sits in a tucked away rural location just outside of the very popular village of Lamberhurst, which is only a short drive away. It is approached through a five bar wooden gate over a gravelled drive with plenty of parking and turning space. Attached to the garage is the annexe/holiday let. The Oast was converted in the 1980's and significantly extended in the 1990's to provide generous family accommodation.
