  • Situated in the rural village of Woodnesborough, Sandwich
  • Set within 2.67-acres of exceptional grounds including swimming pool's & tennis court
  • Offering a 7-bed principal house, 1-bed adjoining annexe & a self contained 2-bed cottage

  • Rare opportunity to acquire this impressive chain free property
Dating from 1715, following the death of Queen Anne, this exceptional Grade II Listed country house is one of East Kent's most prestigious houses.

Having been occupied and much loved by one family for nearly 60 years, this is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire an exquisite and historical property.

Hammill Farmhouse & Annexe - Set within approximately 2.67 acres, Hammill Farm offers an early 18th-Century, Grade II Listed country house comprising 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, a large kitchen with staircase to the cellars, and elegant reception rooms for entertaining including a dining room, drawing room, orangery, and a library/ study to the ground floor.

The adjoining, self-contained annexe comprises a reception room, WC and kitchen to the ground floor, in addition to a double bedroom, en-suite bathroom and access to the main house on the first floor.

Both dwellings have been well maintained over the years and are presented in good decorative order throughout; however, they would benefit from sympathetic upgrading.

Gardener's Cottage - In addition to the principal house, there is a separate 2-bedroom detached cottage within the grounds. This offers an opportunity to generate rental income on a short-term or long-term basis, or to be used for staff accommodation or guests.

Gardens & Grounds - Hammill Farm offers a multitude of outbuildings and amenities including garages, workshops/ stores, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a tennis court and a wonderful party barn.

Surrounding Area & Local Amenities - Woodnesborough is situated just 2 miles west of the Cinque Port town of Sandwich where visitors find themselves transported back in time to the days of bustling market squares, cobbled streets, and fascinating period properties. As well as the town's rich history, Sandwich is highly regarded for its choice of schools including Sir Rogers Manwood's and Sandwich Technology, as well as its two world-class golf courses, Royal St Georges Golf Club and Princes Golf Club which attract players and visitors from all over the world.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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
