Constructed in 2007 and never lived in by the current owners, the property is approached via a private drive which leads to extensive off road parking with five bar gate to the side leading to the private garden. A wrought iron gate with enclosing walls and steps leads to the main entrance with pitched roof timber recessed porch with courtesy lights. The property sits in a slightly elevated position and the front flagstone terrace can also be accessed off of the main reception that has a scenic view overlooking the additional separate 12.6 acre plot of fields. To the rear the kitchen / breakfast / dining room leads out to the property’s secluded garden of gently rolling lawns, specimen trees and shrubs. The ground and first floor accommodates the five bedrooms with two shower rooms on the ground floor and a further shower room and one ensuite bathroom on the first floor. The large lower ground floor area with integral garage, utility room and cloakroom also offers a wide scope of potential to create your own studio / office / workshop / gym / spa / steam / sauna / cinema room / hydro pool / ambient store and / or wine cellar.
The Consented Barn Conversion
‘Barn at Little Copt Farm’ is an existing barn and is a development plot where permission has been granted for the conversion of an existing modern barn to a new three bedroom detached dwelling (totalling approximately 1947.62 Sq. Ft). The barn sits opposite the existing property on the other side of the driveway in its own plot. The ground floor accommodation boast open plan living space for the lounge, kitchen and dining area with separate utility room, plus a home office, family bathroom and bedroom. On the first floor there are two further bedrooms with ensuite shower rooms and walk-in wardrobes. This is an amazing opportunity to create another abode within the grounds, with your own specific fittings and finish. Sevenoaks planning reference is 20/03028/FUL.
The plot is approached via a private drive and sits within the parish and confines of Shoreham Village, an idyllic Kent village surrounded by the beautiful rolling Kent Downs, within walking distance of Shoreham station. With equestrian potential it is also a ‘Perfick’ location for anyone wanting to live the ‘Pop Larkin’ lifestyle with an opportunity to have two residences on a hobby farm, with your own horses, llamas, sheep, goats chickens or similar livestock. With an overall plot in excess of 12.6 acres this unique purchase has endless possibilities for the next owner.
This is a great opportunity for a family looking to accommodate multigenerational living and this unique individual option of two halves can be purchased together or separately and could suit a family looking for adjacent homes on separate titles.
