Available to the open market for the first time this magnificent 16th Century Grade II listed farmhouse, originally owned by the Fremlin family and purchased privately approximately 50 years ago by the current owners, originally dates from the 1570's (although there had been a medieval hall on the site entirely in keeping with Kemsing's history dating back to 822AD) and has benefited over time from the elegant Queen Anne additions during the early 1700's.

Covering 3,356ft2 of living space set over three floors the house has been perfectly kept for family living whilst retaining its exquisite original features; from original beams and facades to a pair of inglenook fireplaces in the living and dining rooms. The ground floor is perfectly demarked by its formal entrance hallway (with guest WC) which links the formal dual aspect drawing room at the west end of the house (with west and south facing windows) and the formal dining room (both with the elegant inglenook fireplaces) with the rest of the ground floor. A large open plan kitchen/breakfast room with Aga, integrated appliances and south facing dining area sits alongside a large utility room added in 1974 (with its seperate entrance) and ample storage (an excellent additional cupboard which once acted as the door at the front of the house). On the easterly wing of the house then is found a tri-aspect family living room alongside a well presented study with exposed framed ceiling.
Stairs from the entrance hallway lead to the first floor where the principal bedroom suite occupies the western end of the house and enjoys a beautiful dual aspect, both west and south; with en suite bathroom and built in storage. Three further bedrooms (one with additional built in storage) then sit alongside a family bathroom and WC at the eastern end of the house. Two further bedrooms are then found on the top floor alongside a WC and hidden attic space.

The wonderfully maintained south facing gardens then cover approximately an acre and are filled with well-stocked flower beds and borders alongside a vegetable garden and a small orchard with meadow and spring planting. A well tended lawn sits immediately outside the house (demarked by a perfectly positioned York stone terrace) providing a wonderful place for families and entertaining whilst an outdoor swimming pool with paved surround sits on the southerly side of the house, screened privately by mature shrubs and trees. Access is provided by a private driveway giving parking for multiple vehicles as well as access to the detached garage and additional outbuildings.

First mentioned in 822 and on the route of the "Pilgrim's Way" to Canterbury Cathedral Kemsing is a charming and active village with excellent day-to-day amenities including local stores, a public house, vet, chemist, Italian delicatessen, coffee shop, church and a well regarded local primary school. The village is ideally placed for nearby transport links including mainline trains from Sevenoaks (to London Bridge and Charing Cross) and Otford (to London Victoria) as well as the nearby motorway network for the M25 (providing easy access to Gatwick and Heathrow airports) and the channel ports.

Sevenoaks provides an additional range of shopping and amenities whilst the immediate area has many excellent schools including (but not only) Kemsing Primary School, Trinity School and Knole Academy alongside a great selection of independent schools such as St. Michael's Prep, Russell House, The New Beacon, Walthamstow Hall, The Granville, Sevenoaks Prep, Sevenoaks School, The Judd school and Tonbridge School.
