Chaney Court Farm and Lodge
Built in the early part of the 1900’s, this charming detached
farmhouse is full of character and contains lots of period features
including fireplaces, stripped wood flooring, picture rails, high
ceilings and good sized rooms. The house has been modernised
over time with new white aluminium double glazed windows
and most recently, a brand new shower room. There is a real
‘heart of the home’ kitchen/diner which is large enough for a
good sized family dining table and chairs and has a really lovely
outlook over the gardens beyond. For relaxing there is a choice
of the family room or sitting room, both with feature fireplaces
and views out to the front. Ideal for keeping coats and boots out
of the house, there is a useful boot room, plus a boiler/utility
room where you can also dry your laundry. Upstairs are four
good sized bedrooms and the family bathroom, plus stairs to the
loft room which could be an ideal teenagers den or office, or if
you wanted a master suite, then could be converted subject to
the required consents. Outside you have the Lodge, which is laid
out with an integral garage, plus three bedrooms and a good size
kitchen/diner and lounge.This is ideal as annexe accommodation
for guests or family members, or for rental as a holiday let, and
comes complete with its own garden area.
Outside the grounds total approx. 1.5 acres and are laid out with
an in and out driveway for the house and lodge, gardens that
encircle the house, including a typical kitchen garden, plus the
paddock with its own separate vehicular access for a horse box
or trailer. In the field you will find the pole barn containing two
stables and a lock up store/garage as well as a feed area to the
rear.There is also another barn of a good size which is fitted with
power and light. Beyond the paddock there are fields and an off
shoot of the River Beult, which is great for occasional fishing. All
in all, this is the perfect property to raise a family that enjoys the
outdoors, as there are cycling routes and rambling tracks all
around, as well as additional grazing which could be negotiated
with a local farmer.
Situated on the outskirts of the village of Staplehurst, the
mainline station is under 2 miles away, and the village itself
contains a supermarket, post office, doctors, dentist and
pharmacy as well as a few other local shops and renowned
butchers.
