Grade II Listed, the property is charming and presented to a very high standard throughout, with all the comforts needed for modern living. There is a wonderfully light, bright open plan living space which is large enough to comfortably accommodate a cosy sitting area with wood burner, study area and dining area, from where French doors open onto the garden beyond. The pretty shaker style fitted kitchen has incredible views over a large neighbouring pond, teeming with wildlife, as does the second double bedroom. The largest of the bedrooms also has views over the garden and the accommodation is completed by an inviting traditional style modern bathroom.
Not only would “Hop Pocket” make a super main residence, but the fact that it is situated in a highly desirable tourist area means that it could provide a holiday home for someone looking for a perfect rural retreat. This property also benefits from a double cart lodge style garage with off-street parking to the front, and a lovely garden with far reaching countryside views and summer house, which wraps around the house and provides an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the world outside. Located towards the end of a hidden lane and backing onto grazing land, this cottage offers everything you imagine from a truly rural retreat, and yet is conveniently positioned within easy reach of the villages of Northiam and Newenden, and the historic Cinque Port towns of Tenterden and Rye.

Outside
The property is approached from the main road over a private driveway which is owned by Gate Court Farm and over which we understand this property has a right of access at all times. A turning off the main access drive takes you onto a shared driveway where the two bay cart lodge and parking for this property is located. A side gate takes you through to the main part of the garden of Hop Pocket from where there are spectacular views over grazing meadows and open countryside. The large level garden, which wraps round the house on two sides is laid mainly to lawn with ornamental trees and a timber summer house, which makes a lovely sunny place to sit and relax. At the back of the house is a paved terrace which looks over the large neighbouring pond and is a wonderful place to sit and simply watch the abundant wildlife that regularly visit it.
