Description
Set along a quiet country lane in the heart of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Crockers Farmhouse is a beautifully presented family home offering over 5,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, together with ancillary accommodation, delightful gardens and grounds extending to approximately 3.66 acres, and panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.
Approached via an in-and-out gravel driveway, the house immediately conveys a sense of space and privacy. Thoughtfully remodelled by the current owners, the accommodation combines the character of a traditional country home with the practicality required for modern family living.
The reception hall provides a welcoming introduction, leading to a series of well-proportioned reception rooms. The triple-aspect drawing room is particularly impressive, featuring exposed timbers, an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove and bi-fold doors opening onto the terrace and gardens beyond. The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys a wonderful position overlooking the surrounding landscape and serves as the heart of the house, with extensive cabinetry, integrated appliances and ample space for informal dining and entertaining. A separate dining room offers further flexibility and connects to additional accommodation comprising a games room, bedroom and en suite shower room, ideal for guests, older children or multi-generational living.
Arranged across the upper floors are six bedrooms, each benefiting from its own en suite bath or shower room. The principal suite occupies the second floor and enjoys elevated views across the gardens and countryside, complemented by a well-appointed en suite bathroom and excellent storage.
Adjacent to the main house is ancillary accommodation incorporating an open-plan sitting room and kitchen, shower room and first-floor bedroom, providing excellent flexibility for guests, dependent relatives, staff or home working requirements, subject to any necessary consents. This is currently used as an airbnb.
The gardens and grounds are a particular feature of the property. Extending to approximately 3.66 acres, they provide a beautiful setting for the house, with sweeping lawns, a pond, mature planting and a substantial terrace positioned to take full advantage of the far-reaching views. The result is a wonderfully peaceful and private environment, ideal for both family life and entertaining.
Crockers Farmhouse occupies an enviable position close to the sought-after village of Northiam, with its range of everyday amenities, whilst the historic towns of Rye, Tenterden and Hawkhurst are all within easy reach. Mainline rail services provide convenient access to London, making the property equally suited as a permanent residence or country retreat.
