A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a beautifully situated 65 acre property with planning for an impressive replacement contemporary home.
Description
Rogers Wood presents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a rurally situated, 65 acre property which currently comprises a detached two storey cottage with garden all surrounded by extensive mixed ancient woodland.
The property comes with the option to enjoy the accommodation as is, or it has the benefit of full planning permission for a substantial contemporary home with associated landscaping and parking should someone wish to create their own masterpiece.
The approved planning is for a passive contemporary home, in excess of 7,000 sq ft with indoor pool complex and garaging for six cars with electric car charging point.
The presently proposed plans would allow for versatile reception rooms, an open plan kitchen/dining/family room, utility, boot and cloakrooms on the ground floor, together with an indoor pool complex with sauna and steam room. On the upper floor there are six bedrooms all enjoying en suite dressing rooms/ bath or shower rooms.
Proposed environmental features and renewable technologies could potentially include:
- Solar panels, air source heat pumps
- Biomass boilers and heat recovery system
- Rainwater harvesting units to minimise water consumption
- Klargester treatment plant, and/or the use of an algae-based pool filtration system
Location
Rogers Wood is situated within a High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, just over 3 miles from the historic market town of Cranbrook.

In addition, and closer still, is Sissinghurst (2.5 miles) with its local shop, The Milk House pub and renowned castle and gardens.

There is an excellent selection of schools within the area catering for children of all ages in both the state and private sector. The property is also set in the Cranbrook School catchment area.
Good road and rail networks in the area include the A21 giving access via the M25 to Gatwick and Heathrow airports and the M20 providing a link to Ashford International and Dover.
