4 bedroom semi-detached house

Weavering House is the major portion of a magnificent Victorian mansion, formerly the residence of Lady Margaret and Hon. Henry Marsham, daughter and son of the third Earl of Romney (of Mote House/Park). The property was constructed in 1879 having most attractive elevations of mellowed red brick, tile hanging, exposed timbers and stone lintels and mullions to some windows under a Kent peg tiled roof. The exceptionally spacious and well-proportioned accommodation has been renovated throughout and has a wealth of Victorian features including lofty ceilings with fine cornicing and wide skirting boards, cast iron fireplaces, sash windows, exquisite Victorian tiled and oak flooring. The property has a stunning reception hall with a galleried landing and decorative panelled ceiling with a height of approximately 26', massive leaded light window and wide curved oak balustraded staircase; superb bespoke fitted kitchen/family room; two luxury bathrooms; gas fired central heating; security system and tasteful decor throughout.

Situated adjacent to Mote Park, a local beauty spot where fine recreational facilities are available, between Maidstone and Bearsted, each offering a comprehensive range of excellent shopping and educational facilities, London line stations and easy access to the motorway network. There is an infant/junior school, shopping parade and several inns within easy walking distance.

Weavering House is approached by a long and impressive tree lined private drive with two 5-bar entrance gates culminating to an extensive parking area and space for garaging (subject to the necessary planning consents being obtained).
