Description
A beautifully presented Grade II listed farm house together with exquisitely converted stables set along a private driveway amid circa 7.55 acres including paddocks and woodland *Cranbrook School Catchment”<br/><br/>Saunders Farm originally dates from circa 1550 with later additions, and exhibits many characteristics that you would expect of a property of this era, such as pretty original leaded windows, timber beams, fireplaces and wooden latch doors. The current custodians have sympathetically updated the property with modern fixtures and fittings whilst retaining the original feeling of the building.<br/><br/>The accommodation is set across two floors and offers an entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen, dining room, family snug and cloakroom to the ground floor, with four bedrooms – one with access to a loft area, family shower room, family bathroom and a space on the landing suitable for use as a home office on the first floor.<br/><br/>Outside the property is surrounded on 3 sides by garden with views across the adjacent paddocks. The kitchen opens onto an area of terracing with a covered pergola, ideal for alfresco dining and summer evening BBQs. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with areas of planting, abutted by majestic mature trees and fully enclosed by picket fencing. <br/><br/>The property originally had an accompanying adjacent barn which has been meticulously dismantled and carefully stored in readiness for reuse.
