PRICE GUIDE £650,000 - £675,000. Dating back to around 1770, Daye House is situated in a quiet, no through road on the outskirts of Barming adjoining orchards and with lovely views out over farmland and the Medway Valley.
The property comprises a beautiful detached Grade II listed house that has retained much of its original character. Period features and exposed beams abound throughout with the main rooms benefitting from high ceilings. A recent extension has enhanced the accommodation and windows throughout are either double-glazed or have secondary double-glazing. The present owners have lived there for over 40-years and have created a beautiful home with magnificent landscaped gardens which have a high degree of privacy and far-reaching views.
The immediate area has excellent local amenities with Maidstone the county town about 3-miles distant providing a wide range of shopping, educational and social facilities. The property is within walking distance of local shops, two pubs, Barming church, a primary school and Maidstone Hospital. Barming village has many amenities including pre-school facilities, an active Scout Group, a dance school and active clubs and societies.
