The Green, Bearsted, Maidstone, ME14

If you like the idea of living in a picture postcard setting and want to in the heart of village life, yet retain a good degree of privacy, then this could be the home for you. Set at the end of a long private driveway, this beautifully presented Grade II Listed twin roundel oast house offers a great balance of character and modern finishes. We love the circular rooms such as the light flooded living room and huge dining room which is semi-open plan to the gorgeous country style kitchen - making this a the perfect space for entertaining. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms with the principal being circular and having a stunning en-suite bathroom above - the perfect sanctuary to escape to after a tough day. Externally, the long rear garden provides plenty of space for the kids to let off steam, in addition, there is a south facing sun-trap courtyard patio area tucked away from the main garden so the ideal place to unwind on some sun loungers away from the garden antics. There is driveway to the front and garage to the rear - so ideal if you have a cherished vehicle you need to be sheltered from the elements. The combination of character, space and location are what sets this home apart from the run of the mill and we recommend an early viewing to avoid disappointment.

If you're dreaming of living in a picturesque village straight out of a postcard, where locals gather to play cricket on a lush green, then Bearsted is the ultimate destination for you. This home is seconds from the central village green which yet nicely tucked away at the end of the private driveway. Bearsted is a place where you can indulge in the finest dining options, including the Michelin-listed Fish on the Green and Oak on the Green - a gastropub that boasts a wide selection of ales. The White Horse, a large pub with roaring log fires, is situated just across the green, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing meal. Parents will be delighted to know that the local Junior school; Roseacre, was rated outstanding in 2022 by Ofsted, whilst the local Infant school; Thurnham C of E, was rated Good in all areas in 2023. If you are a golf enthusiast, the village offers the convenience of an 18-hole course and if you enjoy countryside walks then you can access public footpaths that connect to the North Downs Way a short distance.
