A charming four bedroom terraced house formed from part of this impressive Grade II* listed building, in the sought-after village of Brenchley
Description
Located in the heart of the historic village of Brenchley, 5 Old Palace is a four bedroom terraced house formed from part of this Grade II* listed building that dates back to the 15th century, with later additions made in the 17th century. There are period features throughout, typical of a property of this era, including timber beams and leadlight windows.
5 Old Palace is accessed from the charming courtyard, with the accommodation comprising a stylish kitchen fitted with shaker-style cabinets and a range of integrated appliances. The hallway opens onto a characterful sitting room with leaded-light windows overlooking the High Street. A WC completes the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms arranged over two floors; the spacious principal bedroom benefits from a stylish en suite shower room, whilst a family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Outside, there is a communal courtyard offering access to the private garden for the property. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a mature hedged boundary. On street parking is available in the village.
Location
Lying about seven miles to the east of Tunbridge Wells, Brenchley is surrounded by beautiful countryside in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This picturesque village offers a post office, doctors’ surgery and dispensary, along with a fine church, primary school, The Little Bull Café & Bar and a village club.
Brenchley is also about two miles away from the centre of Horsmonden where there are further village amenities including an award-winning village shop (Heath Stores has historically been named 'Best Independent Food and Drink Retailer' by Kent Life), primary academy and kindergarten, sports field and tennis club. Brenchley is also just under two miles from the popular and pretty village of Matfield, with its traditional village green, butcher, and public houses.
For more comprehensive shopping, Paddock Wood (about 3 miles) offers a good range of shopping facilities including a Waitrose supermarket, doctors surgery, bank, Costa Coffee, butcher, Greggs, Barsley's Department Store, Putlands Sports and Leisure Centre and primary school. Tunbridge Wells (about 7 miles) offers a wide choice of facilities including two theatres, a multiplex cinema, health clubs, restaurants, cafés, bars and hotels, The Pantiles and High Street.
