THIS HOME, NEAR SEVENOAKS, IS A SPECTACULAR PROPERTY. IN FACT, EYNSFORD HILL IS NOT ONLY A PICTURESQUE LARGE COUNTRY HOME, BUT IT ALSO COMMANDS SPECTACULAR VIEWS OF THE NORTH KENT COUNTRYSIDE

Property: Eynsford Hill, Grade II listed country houseLocation: Eynsford, Kent Price: £1.95 million

Bedrooms: 7Bathrooms: 3Land: 4.5 acres

Best bit: The strong historic importance of the property and myriad period features are still evident around the house, which has large formal gardens that are a true asset.

Summary: Constructed in 1913 by author, Arthur Mee, this property has a stately, country feel to it and yet, it’s only eight miles from Sevenoaks and 20 miles from London. A host of original features are consistent throughout, such as a cast-iron front door with peephole, mosaic tiling and panelling in the reception room and a balcony in the master bedroom.

With seven bedrooms, Eynsford Hill would be more than adequate for large families, or families of any size for that matter. The grounds are extremely spacious and accommodating, originally requiring three full-time gardeners. The property is so captivating and unique, that George Bernard Shaw, fellow author and friend of Arthur Mee, named the Eynsford Hill family in his novel Pygmalion.

Included in the property is a detached double garage and a workshop, complete with a single garage. In addition to this, two lots which are not included in the sale of the property are available for separate purchase (one is a bungalow, the other a 4.5 acre paddock).

For literary types, the house has a library/study with the capacity to house a great number of books. It is arguably the most important room of the home, being the place in which Arthur Mee wrote over 200 books. Divided into two sections with an alcove and fireplace at one end, it is the perfect place to curl up with a favourite book.

Property: Witherenden Mill, Grade II listed former mill houseLocation: Stonegate, East SussexPrice: £1.75 million

Bedrooms: 7Bathrooms: 2 (plus 2 cloakrooms)Land: 4 acres (approx)

Best bit: This is certainly an individual property. With its roots as a working mill house and various additions to the structure over the years, this home is picturesque as only an East Sussex home can be.

Summary: Witherenden Mill is an impressive property with a great number of rooms spread over its generous floor plan. As well as the usual dining room, sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room (all of which are of excellent proportions), Witherenden also boasts a library, study, epic drawing room and an attractive conservatory leading out into the grounds.

From the utility room, you can reach the cellars which, in keeping with the rest of the house, are spacious. There are two routes to the first floor, one (a quite lovely curved staircase) leads to the principal bedroom, with the other to the first floor landing.

The principal suite is amazing, with a walk-in dressing room area,

Property: Priors Barn, 4-bedroom barn conversionLocation: Broad Oak, Heathfield, East SussexPrice: £1.1 million

Bedrooms: 4Bathrooms: 4 (all en suite)Land: Circa 20 acresExtras: Extensive outbuildings,impressive façade

Best bit: The setting of Priors Barn is certainly one of its strong points. In an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty it’s a prime location for a rural retreat, but step inside and you’ll also be impressed by the quality of fittings and finish.

Summary: This newly extended barn conversion is built of brick and stone and features double-height windows with views out over the surrounding countryside. Much of the downstairs building is adorned with tiled flooring and wooden beams.

The ground floor comprises a reception hall, open plan drawing room (with those epic windows), a beautiful farmhouse style kitchen and breakfast room, plus two bedrooms, each with en suite.

Wander up the solid oak staircase – not forgetting to take in the views – and you’ll find two more bedrooms, with velux sky lights. Externally, there are a number of outbuildings for equestrian or automotive storage.

If you’re after rolling countryside and modern, comfortable appliances, this property could be perfect for you.

Property: Peacock House, detached country houseLocation: Heathfi eld, East SussexPrice: £1.15 millionBedrooms: 5Bathrooms: 4 (plus 2 cloak rooms) Land: 2 acres (approx)Extras: Detached triple garage with large studio fl at above

Best bit: With a bespoke modern kitchen, fi tted by Distinctive Kitchens of Heathfi eld and the master bedroom’s broad wrought-iron balustrade, this house encapsulates both traditional and modern elements of country properties.

Summary: Located roughly 15 miles from Tunbridge Wells, in the beautiful countryside surrounding the village of Heathfi eld, Peacock House is a modern country home, with traditional roots.

Dating from 1989, the current owners have extensively updated and reinvented the house. With neutral décor and modern fi ttings, it feels light, spacious and inviting. It’s the kind of interior that’s luxurious to inhabit yet easy to live with.

The sizeable kitchen is an important part of the property, with Corian work-surfaces incorporating a Belfast sink and gas-powered AGA, for a rustic yet contemporary feel. The current owners have installed a Siemens American fridge and a dishwasher, making for relative ease and minimal stress when preparing meals.

Through from the kitchen is a triple aspect drawing room with south-facing patio door which opens out onto a veranda. From here you can admire the spacious garden and grounds of the house.

Outside you’ll fi nd a detached triple garage with a studio fl at above, perfect for a teenager suite, guest room or an offi ce.

Property: Remingtons Farmhouse, 18th Century country home Location: Horsmonden, KentPrice: £895,000

Bedrooms: 5Bathrooms: 1 (plus en suite)

Best bit: Certainly the views over the surrounding hop farms are a feather in this property’s cap, but the architecture of the house itself is equally attractive.

Summary: This period house, near Horsmonden village, is full of unique features and steeped in well-documented history. With records dating back to 1720, it has a charming feel, rich in the culture of its surroundings.

A large entrance hall, with exposed beams (a theme throughout the home), leads on to other rooms on the ground floor, such as the drawing room, dining room, kitchen, office and study. With stairs going up to the first floor, and down to the cellar, this area is a good starting point to explore the home from and creates a great first impression.

Remingtons Farmhouse would make a perfect family home; three bedrooms on the first floor are joined by a family bathroom and en suite. Above, a spacious games room leads into the fourth and fifth bedrooms on the second floor. Additionally, there are two separate doors leading from these bedrooms, creating the potential for gym and cinema room, or simply lavish dressing areas.

Back downstairs, the study and separate office make it possible to work from home in a professional environment. The office is spacious enough to accommodate a desk and has plenty of room for storage. A glazed door leads out to the parking area, giving visiting clients their own entrance into the room.

Period Peace

REMINGTONS FARMHOUSE, WITH DELIGHTFUL VIEWS OVER THE SURROUNDING KENTISH HOP FARMS, IS PERFECT FOR WORKING FROM HOME, AS WELL AS RECEIVING GUESTS. IT ALSO HAS A CELLAR, IDEAL FOR STORING YOUR FINER WINES

In keeping with the rest of the house, a large kitchen, complete with fitted island and view of the back garden, is bright and open. Allowing generous amounts of light into the room, this is a perfect breakfast room for the family, or a space in which to have a drink, after greeting guests.

Head down the stairs and into the cellar to discover a whole new area of the house, perfect for wine (or general) storage, this is another valuable asset – uncommon in many properties – to add to a unique, period farmhouse.

Property: The Old Post House, three floor cottage with annexLocation: Bells Yew Green, KentPrice: £1.25 million

Bedrooms: 6/7 (depending on usage)Bathrooms: 3 (plus shower room)

Best bit: Subtlety is a pleasant feature of The Old Post House. From the front of the property it looks unassuming and quaint, but in fact you’re looking at a well-proportioned home with plenty of space and character.

Summary: The name gives away the heritage of this building. Yes, it was once the village post office and, with a sweet shop and bakery to the rear, extra accommodation was needed and so the property next door was annexed. Now a purely residential set of buildings, there’s more than enough space to put up a large family and still have dedicated areas for an office, gym and study, plus more.

Enter through the front door of the cottage and you’re greeted with a reception hall. From here you can wander through to the sitting room and dining room at the front of the property, or step up to the snug and along to the bright kitchen and breakfast room. There’s a staircase to the lower ground floor that reveals a utility and shower room, plus playroom – this area is highly versatile and could fit multiple uses.

Generally speaking, the cottage features a great deal of period touches with heavy influence of late Georgian and early Victorian style. The first floor features a master bedroom, with a great en suite, plus three further rooms and a family bathroom.

To reach the annex just stroll through the cottage dining room, or enter from the back garden via the four sets of French

doors leading into the studio, study, or games room. Again, these spaces could be customised to accommodate for numerous pastimes; be it exercise, cinema, work or simply an extra family room.

The annex also holds two bedrooms, a bathroom and a cloakroom, so you could even use it as dedicated living quarters. Step outside and you’ll find a lovely long lawn, carport and detached garage.

Property: Lower Cowden Farm, former Elizabethan farmhouseLocation: Mayfield, East SussexPrice: £1.35million

Bedrooms: 5Bathrooms: 3Land: 5.8 acres

Best bit: Spacious without feeling empty. The elevated position of the main house makes for spectacular views of Mayfield and the South Downs. In addition to this, the property includes numerous outbuildings including stables, a tack-room and two stores for equestrian endeavours.

Summary: Located on top of a hill, overlooking the rolling South Downs and including over 5 acres of land, Lower Cowden Farm really is something special. This detached former farmhouse dates back to the 15th Century and is bursting with period features, such as oak ceiling beams, inglenook fireplaces and polished oak floors.

Along with the main house, this property includes six stables, and two adjoined cottages, each with a double bedroom, bathroom, sitting room and kitchen areas. One of the cottages has a study/spare bedroom.

These additions to the home add another element to the already-impressive farmhouse. Those with older children may want to grant them freedom without casting them too far afield, or you may simply want to use the cottages for special occasions or entertaining guests. For the green-fingered among us, there is a large vegetable garden to the rear of the property, beyond which are two paddocks, accounting for part of the five acres of land this home has to offer. Despite the rural location of this house, you do not have to sacrifice the convenience of living in a more populated area, with Tunbridge Wells roughly 10 miles to the north and the town of Heathfield 4 miles to the south, the home is private without being solitary and along with the breathtaking view; it is simply timeless.

Property: 2 Station Oast, is one of four kiln oasts, in a converted barn with roundels Location: Horsmonden, KentPrice: £405,000Bedrooms: 3Bathrooms: 2 (plus cloakroom)

Best bit: Nestled in the sleepy village of Horsmonden, this converted barn, complete with Grade II listed oasts, is simply brimming with personality and rural charm.

Summary: One of the most obvious elements of the home is the light and space. This barn conversion retains all of its roominess and exuberance, accentuated by two sets of French doors in the open-plan sitting room.

Traditional features are present throughout, with casement windows, exposed original joists, a vaulted ceiling in the sitting room and wood veneer floors. Beyond the French doors, the rustic feel of Station Oast is completed, with wooden decking, as well as a small garden area.

Upstairs, two bedrooms and one master bedroom continue the roomy feel of the property. Complete with Velux skylight, the master bedroom allows a generous amount of natural light into the room, not to mention the en-suite bathroom and mezzanine study.

The study area is perhaps the most interesting part of the house due to its versatility. It could be used as another bedroom, a spare room or simply for the roof-access while enjoying a cold drink during the warmer months.

The Last Oast

WITH A SPACIOUS OPEN-PLAN KITCHEN/LIVING-ROOM, ‘LOFT’ STYLE VAULTED CEILINGS AND TRADITIONAL KENTISH OASTS, THIS BARN CONVERSION CAPTURES THE BEST OF LIVING IN THE WEALD

Both a cosy rural home and a breezy summer abode, Station Oast is a place for those who love the countryside and living in it.

Approached by a long driveway, this cottage is described by the owners as” in an idyllic setting” within the favoured area of St Johns, which is ideally situated for the local primary/ secondary schools and local amenities. The cottage, in our opinion, is well presented and has features including a downstairs cloakroom, sitting room with feature fireplace, kitchen/dining room, two double bedrooms and bathroom. The cottage benefits from having off road parking for several vehicles and a Outbuild-ing which is split into two, currently used as a Games room measuring 21 ‘7 with an attached utility/ laundry room. This would be ideal for anybody that works from home or to use as additional family room. To appreciate the uniqueness of this property book your viewing early.

For your homeEstablished in 1953, Chilstone’s long history has enabled us to perfect a reconstituted stone with a superb texture, making it virtually indistinguishable from quarried stone and a perfect for compliment for your home. From wall caps to complete staircases our stone is entirely hand made by craftsmen, giving us the kind of control during the production process which enables us to readily adapt our standard items to your design requirements.

For your gardenEach Chilstone ornament is handmade in reconstituted stone by a special process, developed over our long history to ensure a finished texture virtually indistinguishable from natural stone. The colour and texture of the material is midway between Portland and Bath stones, and its composition encourages the spontaneous growth of mosses and lichens, which rapidly gives it the aged quality of the original. This important characteristic ensures that each ornament blends harmoniously with its setting.

For youDue to the diversity of our production process and skilled craftsmanship Chilstone can now provide a complete bespoke commissioning service. From a small stone statue to a large brass sundial we can design, create and personalise the perfect gift to your exact requirements and needs.
