House For Sale £1,200,000
An attractive and imposing Grade II Listed Manor House with garage/workshop, believed to be built in c1590. This wonderful Elizabethan country house is full of the character of this period and has been listed for its special architectural and historic interest. The house is conveniently located for Borough Green & Wrotham station and local amenities (0.1 miles), yet is tucked away and set back from the road. Internally the house benefits from spacious rooms with surprisingly high ceilings and it has a practical layout for family living. The house sits in the centre of a well-established secluded garden, which extends to 0.69 of an acre. The house has been painstakingly fully and sympathetically renovated and remodelled internally in recent times by the current owners to blend period charm with modern comforts.
The accommodation is set over three levels, plus a cellar, and extends to over 3,145 square feet. Character is prominent throughout the house with floor and ceiling beams and period fireplaces. The original timber front door opens into a useful porch area which in turn leads to a generous entrance hall with a fabulous inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove and original beams. Stairs lead from the ground floor to the first floor landing. To the right of the entrance hall is a traditional style heated conservatory, which is an addition and is a splendid sunny room with a tiled floor and a pretty view of the garden and doors at the front and back allowing access to both gardens. The generous living space also includes a spacious drawing / dining room that overlooks the front garden and features an attractive fireplace with wood burning stove, and a sitting room that has a window seat overlooking the front garden as well as an inglenook fireplace with a working open fire. The triple aspect newly fitted kitchen / breakfast room at the back of the house was an extension believed to have been added in the 1930s. This addition benefits from views of the rear garden and a door leading to the outside patio. A shower room is accessed off the main entrance hall and completes the ground floor accommodation. A second staircase from the inner hallway leads to the first floor landing providing access to three double bedrooms and bathroom. The largest double bedroom is currently set up as a playroom room but this would make an impressive master suite as it has a large en-suite bathroom. A door from this room leads to another landing with stairs down to the main entrance hall. The second floor is accessed from the main first floor landing and here there are two further bedrooms. The largest double bedroom has its own reception dressing room, which makes for its own suite with another impressive large en-suite bathroom.
