When we spoke to the current vendors we asked them 3 main questions and this is what they had to say about their fantastic house.
'What attracted you to the property?'
An extensively renovated luxury property with a wealth of period features nestled in the heart of the Kentish countryside.
Dating back to 1750 this converted inn provides modern, open planned living seamlessly integrated with the historic bones of this fascinating property.
The bi-fold doors lead out to a deck and patio area, with uninterrupted views to the mature garden and intimate raised deck to the rear.
'What changes and improvements have you made?'
We reconfigured and redecorated the downstairs, creating a lobby with utilities, playroom with integrated, bespoke storage, an open plan living area zoned to provide a lounge, dining area, snug and kitchen with bar.
The kitchen has been remodelled and redesigned, adding new units, the American-style fridge freezer and luxury appliances, along with a new sink and taps.
A further downstairs living room off of the main open planned area has also been created to add even more living and entertainment space, allowing for a more intimate snug or additional bedroom if required.
Upstairs has been redecorated throughout, with new bathroom fixtures and fittings in the en-suite, master suite and family bathroom.
'What have you enjoyed about living in the house?'
The house provides a huge open-planned living space, situating the kitchen at the heart of the home, making the perfect space for cooking, entertaining and socialising with a large family.
The bi-fold doors create a seamless transition between inside and outside space, with beautiful views into the mature garden.
The house is configured for family living and supports just that.
The bedrooms are all an excellent size, providing that private, personal space to contrast with the downstairs, open-planned living arrangements; the master suite in particular has lovely garden views and a large en suite.
What specific historic features would we like to mention?
Dating back to 1750, the house has a beautiful front with wonderful “curb appeal” with modern Georgian windows letting in vast amounts of natural light.
The renovated downstairs has exposed the beautiful, original beams making a characterful and delightful home.
