Dating from the 18th century and offered for sale for the first time in 60 years, Yockletts Farm is a double-fronted property with link-attached annexe and offers 3,865 sq ft of flexible accommodation arranged over four floors. Combining modern amenities with charming features such as casement windows, exposed beams, and original fireplaces, the accommodation includes generous drawing and dining rooms, both with feature fireplaces.
The extensive kitchen/breakfast/family room is fitted with a range of wall and base units arranged around a large central island, with a five-oven electric Aga and a Belfast sink; the family area benefits from a wood-burner. Adjacent is a fitted utility room with a useful shower room.
A door from the kitchen leads through to the light-filled sun room, with double doors from here opening to a gym that provides access to the self-contained annexe. The 761 sq ft annexe comprises a vaulted sitting room, a fitted kitchen, and two en suite double bedrooms. The property also benefits from a cellar.
On the first floor is the principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and two further bedrooms, together with a sitting room/bedroom 4 with modern family bathroom. The attic space provides potential for a further bedroom with adjoining study.
Having plenty of kerb appeal, the property is approached over a gravelled in-and-out driveway giving access to an outbuilding with garage, garage barn and log store.
The garden is laid mainly to lawn bordered by cottage-style planting and features a paved terrace and a paved central courtyard accessible from the sun room and annexe, the whole ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.
The property also benefits from an enclosed paddock with a pond and a separate fenced garden/paddock beyond the garage.
A further paddock of about 2 acres is available by separate negotiation.
Yockletts Farm sits in a rural setting in the fold of the North Downs in an AONB. The hamlet of Waltham has a church, village hall and local park and is surrounded by miles of unspoilt countryside, woodland, bridleways and walks. Nearby Canterbury offers a comprehensive range of shopping, cultural, recreational and educational amenities, with an array of schools in both independent and state sectors, including Kent College, The King’s Schools, St Edmund’s and the Simon Langton grammar schools.
