A beautifully presented, detached, double-fronted period home is now available for sale in the charming village of Farningham. This property is ideal for families seeking an annex or a spacious area to work from home. The exterior is immaculately maintained, with ample parking available for several vehicles at the front. Upon entering, you’ll find a cosy lounge, a separate sitting room, a well-appointed kitchen, and a separate dining area. At the rear, a conservatory overlooks a south-east facing garden, a true suntrap. The former pool house, which is just under 1000 sq/ft, has recently undergone upgrades, including a new roof and exterior improvements. While currently used for additional storage, it offers great potential as an annex or home office space. The garden is larger than most, thanks to the current owners’ purchase of the land behind the pool house, which backs directly onto Pollyhaugh Farms. Upstairs, the home features three double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate shower room. Properties like this rarely come to market, and there is potential for extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The local area offers a variety of dining and drinking options, including The Pied Bull Pub, The Lion Hotel (overlooking the River Darent), and the popular Chequers Pub and Palace of India restaurant. A short walk away, you'll find the bustling high street of Eynsford, offering a mix of traditional pubs and independent shops. Eynsford train station is just 1.3 miles away, providing direct links to Blackfriars and Sevenoaks, with a one-stop change at Swanley for London Bridge (31-minute journey). For those who enjoy culture, two nearby castles – Eynsford Castle and Lullingstone Castle – are worth exploring, and Lullingstone’s World Garden is a must-see. Lullingstone County Park is nearby, offering lovely walking routes, perfect for a leisurely stroll or dog walk. Additional local attractions include the Lavender Fields (in full bloom during June/July), The Roman Villas, and Eagle Heights, a family-friendly destination. The area is renowned for its excellent schools, both private and state, including Antony Roper, Sevenoaks School, Tonbridge School, St Michael’s, Russell House, Sevenoaks Prep, New Beacon, and Dartford Grammar.
