Biddenden Road, Headcorn, TN27

Tucked away from view, this lovely home, which forms part of a hamlet with two other residential farmstead properties, is a very well kept secret indeed. Originally thought to have been a piggery, it was converted in 1997, and is now an incredibly stylish, comfortable home which totally belies its humble beginnings. Not only is it deceptively spacious, light and beautifully presented and maintained throughout, but there is a clever blend of period charm and modern living here that would suit the most ardent traditionalist whilst also pandering to those with more contemporary tastes. Basically, it has the best of both worlds.

In addition, this property boasts large, delightful gardens which envelop the house on two sides, a grazing paddock where children and animals can run free, a driveway and additional hard standing offering extensive off-street parking, a double garage with room above, a purpose built timber outbuilding, currently used as a gym, with attached secure store, and views of the picturesque Wealden countryside as far as the north downs.

The location itself has a wonderful rural feel, and yet benefits from being in close proximity to the villages of Headcorn and Biddenden and the towns of Tenterden and Cranbrook with their superb array of shops, schools and other amenities. Headcorn, which is only a 4 minute drive away, has a Sainsbury’s local store and a mainline station to London. Ashford International, with its regular high speed service to London St Pancras, the County town of Maidstone and junction 8 of the M20 at Leeds Castle are all an approximate 20 minute drive away.
