Description

Coming to the market for the first time in over 34 years, Blackmoor Farmhouse is a charming Grade II listed property, formerly two farm workers cottages and believed to date, in part, from the late 16th century with later 19th century façade. Situated off a rural country lane, it sits well back amidst its garden which is open to an L shaped paddock, in all amounting to over 2 acres and adjoining neighbouring farmland to the south and west.

Blackmoor Farmhouse retains a wealth of charm and character and presents a wonderful opportunity to update, whilst also having planning permission and listed building consent for a two storey extension and various alterations. (Please refer to Maidstone Borough Council for more information).

The internal accommodation currently comprises a dual aspect sitting room with inglenook fireplace and door to a west facing terrace, a beamed dining room with wood burning stove and an adjoining study/snug. The kitchen/breakfast room has fitted cupboards, an electric oven, a fridge and dishwasher. A utility/boot room and WC completes the ground floor accommodation.

Two staircases lead to the first floor where the main bedroom has a dressing room and an en suite bathroom, there is a further bedroom with an en suite shower room on this floor. Stairs continue to the attic floor where there is a third bedroom and access to a vaulted loft, offering immense potential.

Garden, Land & Outbuilding
Blackmoor Farmhouse is approached via a gated driveway, with ample off road parking to the front of the house. The established gardens and land with mixed hedging and fencing to the perimeter, extend to the north, south and west property. To the rear there is wide terrace stretching the length of the house. There is a timber outbuilding to the south which would benefit from repair or replacement and offers great potential STP and a further period outbuilding adjacent to the house.
