There are properties that offer accommodation. There are properties that offer land. And then there are properties that offer a lifestyle, a legacy and an opportunity to create something truly special for generations to come.

Springate Farm and Springate Barn represent one of the most unique residential opportunities to come to the market in recent years; a private family estate comprising two substantial detached homes, approximately six acres of grounds, extensive equestrian facilities, multiple outbuildings and endless lifestyle potential, all nestled within a peaceful rural setting just a short walk from West Malling Station.

This is the type of property many people dream about but rarely find.

Imagine waking each morning to uninterrupted views across paddocks and open countryside. Watching deer graze in the distance as the sun rises over the fields. Enjoying your morning coffee on a balcony overlooking your own land whilst listening to birdsong instead of traffic. Spending evenings watching spectacular sunsets from your bedroom window, hosting family gatherings on the patio, tending to your vegetable garden, caring for horses in your own paddocks or simply enjoying the peace and privacy that surrounds you.

Yet despite feeling a world away from modern life, London remains within easy reach thanks to West Malling Station being less than a five-minute walk from the property.

This is countryside living without compromise.
Whether your vision is multi-generational living, a private family estate, equestrian ownership, smallholding, homesteading, self-sufficiency or simply providing your family with space, freedom and security, Springate Farm and Springate Barn provide a platform to create exactly that.
The family estate


What makes this opportunity truly exceptional is the combination of two independent homes occupying the same remarkable setting. For growing families, the possibilities are endless.
Parents, children and grandparents can live close by whilst maintaining complete independence. Adult children can remain connected whilst enjoying their own space. One property could become a guest residence, holiday let, home office hub or provide supplementary income. The flexibility is extraordinary. With separate gated entrances the family compound can be as private or as communal as you wish!

In a world where families are increasingly looking for ways to remain connected whilst maintaining privacy, opportunities such as this are becoming increasingly sought after.
Springate farm


Originally built during the 1930s, the farmhouse offers timeless character, warmth and charm.
Approached through private gated access, the home immediately evokes a sense of arrival. Surrounded by mature planting, open countryside and established paddocks, it feels wonderfully private and secluded.

Internally, the property has retained many of the quality’s buyers love about traditional farmhouses; high ceilings, large windows, hardwood flooring and beautifully proportioned rooms filled with natural light.
The ground floor has been thoughtfully arranged around family life. The dining room forms the heart of the home and flows beautifully into both the conservatory and kitchen, creating a sociable semi-open-plan layout ideal for entertaining and everyday living. At its centre sits a magnificent inglenook fireplace complete with wood burner, creating a stunning focal point and a wonderfully cosy atmosphere during the winter months.

The conservatory opens directly onto the patio and gardens beyond, allowing the countryside to become an extension of the home itself.
The farmhouse kitchen offers both practicality and character, featuring an Aga, breakfast bar and central island. This is a room where family meals, celebrations and everyday moments naturally come together.

Separate from the entertaining spaces is a spacious dual-aspect lounge with large bay-fronted windows overlooking the grounds. This room offers a more intimate and relaxing environment, perfect for quieter evenings.

The ground floor is completed by a utility room with butler sink, downstairs cloakroom and excellent storage. Upstairs, four generous double bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for family and guests alike.

The principal suite is particularly special. A large dual-aspect bedroom with en-suite facilities and breathtaking views across the estate, where evening sunsets become part of daily life.
Bedrooms two, three and four are all substantial doubles, with dual-aspect views and built-in storage enhancing the accommodation further.
Springate barn


Completed in 2025, Springate Barn provides the perfect modern counterpart to the farmhouse.
Still benefiting from the remainder of the government-backed new build warranty, alongside warranties on appliances and systems, the property offers complete peace of mind for future owners.
Designed to maximise light, space and views, the home embraces its countryside surroundings from every room.
The impressive entrance hallway immediately creates a sense of drama and scale, with soaring ceilings and an abundance of natural light.
The ground floor has been designed around modern family living, with wide archways creating a wonderful sense of openness whilst retaining flexibility for future owners.
At the centre of the home is a stunning Wren kitchen finished to an exceptional specification, complete with quartz worktops, breakfast island, wine fridge, induction hob, American fridge freezer and integrated appliances.
Bifold doors open onto a porcelain patio and the approximately 90ft rear garden, perfectly framing the paddocks and fields beyond.
The triple-aspect lounge is flooded with natural light throughout the day and enjoys some of the finest views on the estate.
Upstairs, four substantial double bedrooms are arranged around a spacious landing.

The principal bedroom and second bedroom are connected by a Jack-and-Jill suite, whilst Bedroom Two enjoys direct access onto a composite balcony overlooking the paddocks and countryside beyond.
It is easy to imagine ending each day here, watching the sunset over your own land. Bedrooms Three and Four are equally generous, with built-in storage and countryside views.

The property also benefits from an integral double garage, air source heat pump, exceptional energy efficiency and a boarded loft with power and future conversion potential, subject to permissions.
The land & equestrian facilities


The six acres surrounding the homes provide a level of freedom that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
For equestrian buyers, the facilities are already established and ready to enjoy.
The re-wired stable block includes:
• Tack room
• Hay storage
• Kitchen area
• Two W/C facilities

Each paddock benefits from water access and there is excellent scope to create additional paddocks if required.

The existing grass school could also be upgraded into a sand school, creating an even more impressive equestrian facility.

The extensive tractor shed provides further versatility, featuring brick and block construction, concrete flooring and a mechanic’s inspection pit.
For those seeking a more sustainable lifestyle, the land offers endless opportunities.
Formerly an orchard, the grounds still contain heritage apple varieties including Russet, Discovery, Spartan and Lord Derby.
There are two greenhouses, extensive growing areas and an established natural environment supporting over twenty-three native species of trees and shrubs.

Imagine harvesting your own fruit, growing vegetables, keeping chickens, maintaining horses, creating wildlife habitats and enjoying a level of self-sufficiency that most people can only aspire to.
Future opportunity


Perhaps the greatest attraction of all is the future potential. The estate already provides an outstanding arrangement for multi-generational living, but purchasers may also wish to explore future opportunities for ancillary accommodation or annex-style development, subject to obtaining all necessary planning permissions and consents.
With similar applications being considered within the local area, the estate offers exciting possibilities for those looking to create a truly bespoke long-term family compound.
A rare opportunity

Properties such as Springate Farm and Springate Barn rarely come to market because they offer something that cannot easily be replicated.

And perhaps most importantly, the opportunity to create a home, a lifestyle and a legacy that can be enjoyed for generations.
This is far more than a property purchase.
It is the chance to create your own private family estate in one of Kent’s most desirable locations.
Viewing is essential to fully appreciate everything this remarkable opportunity has to offer.
