About this property

Framed by open countryside and set behind electric gates, this twin-roundel oast house offers 4,300 sq ft of well-balanced living space, with far-reaching views towards the North Downs. It’s the kind of place where mornings start slowly and evenings don’t feel rushed.

Believed to originally date back to the 19th century and extensively converted to a high specification residence in 2014, this incredible home gives you all the character you want from the beams, brickwork and log burner as well as providing an enviable outdoor lifestyle on your doorstep with a stunning countryside back drop to enjoy all year round.

Historians will appreciate the origins of this home with the original ‘Petts Farm’ reconstructed and now sitting pride of place at the popular Kent Life Attraction just down the road.

Along with character in every corner, this sensational home also works well for modern life and you feel it as soon as you step inside. The double-height entrance hall makes an instant impression, with the galleried landing drawing light through the centre of the house. From there, the layout just flows. A generous sitting room, a dining space made for long meals, a study that actually feels separate, and the roundel cinema room, perfect for switch-off evenings.

Upstairs, all six bedrooms are good-sized doubles, with five bathrooms keeping mornings easy. The principal roundel bedroom is set up as an impressive suite, with a dressing room leading through to a calm, private en-suite; a space that feels more hotel than house.

Outside, the plot stretches to around a third of an acre, opening directly onto neighbouring farmland.

There are different spots to sit, eat, or just stop for a moment and listen to the water flowing with sunsets over the North Downs that never really get old. The current owners have mentioned their love for long walks and relaxing in the garden whilst watching the children play.

The timber-framed double garage and store sit neatly off the cobbled driveway, keeping everything practical without taking over the space. Security features are in place and will be included in the sale price.

This isn’t a house that shouts.

It just feels right, space, views, character, and room for real life to happen.
