Description

The property is a small residential complex situated at Mount Le Hoe, just off Stepneyford Lane, situated between the villages of Benenden and Rolvenden in the Cranbrook school catchment area. Staplehurst mainline railway station, with connections to London Charing Cross and Cannon Street is approximately 10 miles to the north.

The house at Mounthall Farm dates from the sixteenth-century (or earlier). Formerly known as 'Mudhall Farm,' its original name is recorded on a 1777 map of Benenden. This part of the Kentish High Weald is designated Natural Landscape area and comprises a belt of hilly and partly wooded countryside, with the streams and ghylls nearby running south to the River Rother.

The property is offered for sale as a whole or in 3 lots.

This is a 4-bedroom 16th century timber frame Grade II listed dwelling, with a partly jetted first floor. The house is externally clad in weatherboard and part rendered under pitched tiled roofs. The farmhouse has traditional features such as a period oak staircase and a bressummer beam fireplace.

Externally there is a good sized Garden and a paddock to the rear of the farmhouse and on the western side there is a woodshed of timber framed construction under a tiled roof and a cart lodge with a stable to one end, also timber framed construction under a tiled roof.

Access is directly to the lane through a five bar entrance gate leading to a tarmac drive over which there are access rights shared with the Oast.

Lot 1 extends to approximately 1.40 acres.
