Meadow Bridge House was built in 2004 and constructed to resemble a Victorian farmhouse with dressed stone elevations, brick quoins and imported French roof tiles. The interior is extremely well presented and has the comfort of a farmhouse with well-proportioned rooms and good ceiling height. Stone floors were laid on the ground floor and oak floors were laid on the first and second floors. There are French oak window frames, oak architraves, internal doors, two staircases, ceiling cornices and under floor gas central heating on the ground floor. The accommodation is arranged over three floors and all rooms have a most attractive outlook.
The sitting room is a particularly attractive room with a Bath stone fireplace fitted with a Jetmaster fire and a French door opens to the garden with a view of the waterfall. The sitting room opens to the dining room which has a view over the swimming pool to Hay Hill and leads to the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen is extremely well fitted with a bespoke solid oak Smallbone kitchen and dresser, a four oven gas Aga, island unit and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and a larder refrigerator. Off the kitchen is a second entrance hall (with a second staircase), off which is the study, utility room, cloakroom and boot room.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom with en suite bath/shower room has a wonderful view over the waterfall and brook. There are three further bedrooms, one with en suite bath/shower room and a family bathroom.
On the second floor there are three further bedrooms, one with en suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe/box room with natural light and one which is used as a cinema room.
The property is approached between stone and brick pillars, which give access on to an impressive long drive flanked by an established beech hedge on either side. The drive continues over a bridge and into a large parking area for several vehicles in front of the house, with an in and out drive. There is a magnificent Willow tree with floodlighting and a mature Wisteria adorns the front elevation. There are a group of bespoke timber outbuildings for storage.
The drive continues past the house to the west, to a detached stone and tile double garage block which incorporates a cloakroom, shower room, sauna and changing room on the ground floor and a gym on the first floor. There is pedestrian access to the space also from the swimming pool area.
The gardens are a delight, immaculately maintained and have a superb outlook of the surrounding countryside. They are principally laid to lawn inset with ornamental trees including Silver Birch, a Japanese Weeping pear tree and shrubs. Fruit trees include a Victoria plum, pear, eating apples and Bramley cooking apple.
There is a paved area designated for sitting out and entertaining to the east with a south aspect. This area looks out over the brook and waterfall where there is also a bridge leading to the hard tennis court beyond. Behind the house is a heated swimming pool with separate boiler and a large paved area for entertaining.
A kitchen garden lies to the north west and has a soft fruit cage and green house.
Pastureland adjoins the gardens and lies mainly to the north east. The land is interspersed by trees including a Copper Beech. The Keward Brook, a tributary of the River Sheppey, bisects the land which is a lovely feature and continues down to the waterfall, exiting to the south. In all about 7.13 acres.

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
