4 bed detached house for sale

South Farm Lane, Langton Green, Tunbridge Wells, Kent TN3

This converted oast house nestles in 1.19 acres of grounds. It was sympathetically converted in the 1990s to a very high standard by the current owners but retains many original features. However, it could be developed further as there is enormous scope to increase the residential accommodation by going into the attic subject to permissions and consents.

Although in a rural environment on the outskirts of Langton Green it is less than three miles from Tunbridge Wells. A long private drive leads to a spacious parking area and here you can begin to appreciate the property's special charm. The front door opens into the dual aspect kitchen/dining room with limestone tiled floor that flows through to the utility room, French doors to the rear terrace, a staircase to the first floor and exposed ceiling beams. The kitchen, created Clive Christian, includes an Aga, a larder, a central island/breakfast bar and bespoke units housing upmarket appliances. The spacious dining area is adjacent to French doors opening onto a terrace.

Oak doors lead into the utility room/cloakroom and sitting room situated in the two roundels. The utility room includes a stove, hand built cabinets, space for laundry facilities and an external door while the dual aspect circular sitting room features a central ceiling beam and wood flooring. The triple aspect drawing room has vertical, wall and ceiling beams, a brick fireplace incorporating an impressive beam and a log burner plus French doors to the terraces.

A galleried landing has space for a study area, loft access and leads to a family bathroom and four dual aspect double bedrooms with exposed ceiling beams, fitted cupboards and magnificent views. Two of the bedrooms are in the roundels including the principal suite with a stunning ensuite bathroom.

The gardens back onto what was originally Groombridge Place but will soon be opening as The Pig at Groombridge. There is a decked terrace and a gazebo surrounding the heated swimming pool, delightful trees, a lawn with additional seating areas including another decked terrace overlooking the wildlife pond.
