House For Sale £1,500,000
Wellbrook Farmhouse is a beautiful home in a private, but highly convenient location. Dating from the 16th century, the house is Grade II Listed and has a particularly elegant symmetrical façade, most likely added circa 1800, and finished in soft yellow brick mathematical tiles. The house has been sympathetically restored by its current owners to create a warm and elegant, traditional home, well suited to modern family living.
Everyday access from the back of the house leads into a flexible open-plan farmhouse kitchen and family room, open to the full height of the catslide roof. A newly installed bespoke kitchen to one end leaves plenty of room for a spacious dining area and a cosy snug, set in front of French windows leading to a side terrace. Adjacent is a generous study and a utility room. Together with a two-room cellar and pantry/boot room, these provide the practical spaces so important to a family home and country house.
Set centrally in the Georgian façade, the formal front door opens to a hallway, either side of which are two fine reception rooms enjoying large windows. Both rooms have high ceilings, fireplaces and lovely features, including panelled walls to one of the rooms.
The striking principal bedroom suite comprises a bedroom, dressing room and bathroom as well as a study/further bedroom. The very generous bathroom is beautifully fitted with a free-standing bath and large walk-in shower. The accommodation is well appointed, with two further bedrooms being en suite; the remaining two bedrooms each have a bathroom adjacent or opposite.
Accessed from outside, a large store room with a mezzanine level provides a useful space and offers further potential, subject to any necessary consents.
Electric gates open to a driveway with parking to the side of the house. There is a lovely walled garden at the front of the house, beyond which stretch further gardens, mainly laid to lawn and dotted with mature trees, affording glimpses through to the golf course in the distance.
Terraces to the rear and side provide pleasant areas to relax and entertain.
The property is set in the hamlet of South Street, midway between Boughton under-Blean and Selling, both sought-after villages with thriving communities, well-regarded primary schools and a range of local amenities. A network of footpaths and bridleways lead through the surrounding countryside and to Boughton Golf Course and The Cave Hotel.
The market town of Faversham, together with the seaside town of Whitstable and the cathedral city of Canterbury provides a comprehensive range of educational, shopping and recreational facilities.
The M2 (Junction 7) is close by, providing good road access. Ebbsfleet International can be reached in around 35 minutes with regular High-Speed services to London St Pancras with journey times of 18 minutes. Canterbury, Faversham and Selling also offer rail services to London. Regular access to the Continent is available from the Port of Dover and via Eurotunnel at Folkestone.
