Description - Set back from Crockenhill Road on the rural outskirts of Swanley, this splendid Grade II listed Tudor Farmhouse presents a unique opportunity for those seeking a spacious family home with character and charm. It boasts a fascinating history dating back hundreds of years with various additions over the years to create what we see today with its attractive elevations, timber framing, rendering and some narrow brickwork all under a tiled roof.
With a generous layout, the property boasts seven well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it ideal for larger families or those who enjoy hosting guests. This home is rich in period features, including leaded-light windows, exposed timbers and charming inglenook fireplaces, which add to its historical significance. While the property is in need of some renovation and improvement, any updates will need to be in keeping with its listed status, ensuring that its character is preserved. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a beautiful setting, perfect for those looking to create their dream home.
The heart of the home features four inviting reception rooms, perfect for both relaxation and entertaining and offering complete versatility when deciding how to best enjoy the layout for your own needs. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is a delightful space for family meals, while the laundry room and basement/cellar provide practical storage solutions and potential to use the basement as a cinema room, gym or wine cellar. A conservatory adds to the charm of this unique home.
Additionally, the property includes a period coach house, which, although requiring considerable attention, offers an exciting project for conversion into an annexe or other ancillary accommodation, subject to planning permission.
The exterior is equally impressive, approached via a sweeping circular driveway that leads to a large triple garage, providing ample parking for a large number of vehicles The impressive grounds extend to nearly two acres that adjoin picturesque farmland with formal gardens that could easily be brought back to their former glory. There is an outdoor swimming pool complex with a pool, terrace surround and outbuilding, the pool has not been used for sometime and requires some renovation.
