Step Outside
One of Becketts Croft’s most compelling features is its beautifully reimagined garden. The grounds, approaching half an acre, now feel like two distinct yet harmonious spaces.
To the rear, a large sandstone patio leads onto an expansive lawn bordered by prolifically stocked beds filled with mature shrubs, herbaceous planting, and specimen trees. This area has been carefully curated to create a private, south facing sanctuary, alive with birds and wildlife and perfectly suited to entertaining.
To the side, accessed either through an arched hedge from the formal garden or directly via French doors from the sitting room, lies a second generous lawn. Predominantly laid to grass, this space lends itself beautifully to children’s play or further landscaping, offering both privacy and potential.
Together, the gardens provide a rare sense of seclusion and space in such a well-connected village setting.
Garaging and Parking
A detached brick built double garage, complete with power, light and an electronically operated door, offers excellent storage and includes its own loft space. The generous driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and further enhances the imposing approach to the house.
Location
Teston is a charming village set on the fringes of Wateringbury, enjoying a semi-rural atmosphere while remaining exceptionally well placed for amenities. The historic market town of West Malling and the county town of Maidstone offer a wide range of shopping, dining, and leisure facilities, along with highly regarded grammar schools.
Further afield, the spa town of Tunbridge Wells, together with Tonbridge and Sevenoaks, provide an excellent choice of private schools, restaurants, and boutiques.
For commuters, the M20 and M2 motorway networks are easily accessible, offering swift connections to Bluewater and Lakeside shopping centres, while a choice of nearby mainline railway stations provides direct services to London and the Kent coast. Beautiful walks along the River Medway are quite literally on the doorstep.
Becketts Croft is more than a period house. It is a home with centuries of continuity, thoughtfully maintained and sensitively enhanced, ready for its next custodian to become part of its enduring story.
