A HANDSOME GRADE II LISTED DETACHED GEORGIAN, FIVE BEDROOM FAMILY HOME SET WITHIN VERY PRETTY MATURE GARDENS WITH A TWO ACRE PADDOCK.
*CRANBROOK SCHOOL CATCHMENT AREA*
Built circa 1825, Mill House is an attractive white weatherboarded house with a Georgian frontage and a Victorian rear extension. Set in the popular hamlet of Iden Green, the house is approached via a gravel in and out driveway with electric gates.
Entering the house through the cottage garden and informal rear door, brings you in through the lobby and in to the kitchen/breakfast room, refurbished in 2018 by the current owners. Double aspect windows provide lovely views over the gardens to the rear and side of the property. To the left of the kitchen/breakfast room is a snug/family room.
On entering the original Georgian part of the house with high ceilings and Georgian proportions, there is a large study/library and formal dining room.
The larger formal sitting room at the front of the house has an open brickwork fireplace housing a Jetmaster open fire.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, two with built in wardrobes and staircase down to two further double bedrooms both with fitted wardrobes. There is a family bathroom and separate shower room.
Outside, the garden has been landscaped by the current owner who is a garden designer. Beyond the more formal garden is a further two acre area comprising a coppicing wood, small orchard and paddock.
A greenhouse, brick terracing, vegetable garden and a south west facing rear garden add to the charm of this property. The garden with a pond to the left side of the property is south facing.
Off road parking is provided and a double garage, currently used as a workshop, is also positioned with easy access.
Mill House is on the periphery of Iden Green, a hamlet near the highly regarded village of Benenden and within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is conveniently located a short distance of the historic and highly regarded Woodcock Inn.
Benenden provides a range of local services, a primary school and shops including a community shop and post office and The Bull Inn and Restaurant. Hawkhurst offers Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets as well as the Kino cinema. The nearby market towns of Cranbrook and Tenterden have a good selection of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and facilities and Tunbridge Wells slightly further afield provides more comprehensive amenities.
There are numerous schools for children of all ages within the public and private sectors, including Benenden Primary School, Benenden Girls Senior School, Dulwich Cranbrook, Saint Ronan’s Preparatory School in Hawkhurst plus Homewood School and Sixth Form Centre in Tenterden. The property also falls within the catchment area for the much sought after Cranbrook Grammar School. Further grammar schools are available in Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells and Ashford.
The mainline stations in Headcorn and Staplehurst offer frequent services to London Bridge, Charing Cross and Canon Street with journey times of just under an hour. Ashford International Station operates high speed services to London St Pancras with journey times from just 37 minutes. Gatwick and Heathrow Airports can be accessed via the A21.
