Description

Nestled in the charming Thong Lane of Shorne, Gravesend, this period detached farmhouse, is a true gem waiting to be discovered. We understand that Cheneys Farm has stood here for over 200 years with so much history over this time including once being owned by the Darnley Estate and we have been told that during World War II it housed the RAF officers from Thong Lane Airport and the local residence used the cellars to shelter from the bombs overhead. Boasting over 4,000 sq.ft of accommodation, this property offers ample space for comfortable living.

With six generously sized bedrooms, this house is perfect for a large family or those who love to host guests. The two beautiful reception rooms provide the ideal setting for entertaining or simply relaxing in style. The entrance door opens into a vaulted vestibule which leads onto a large very inviting farm house kitchen with lots of space for a large dining table to entertain and feed your guests.

Set in over 8 acres of land, this property offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Imagine waking up to the serene surroundings and enjoying the beauty of nature right at your doorstep including a wonderful selection of mature specimen trees that the current owner has planted since buying the Farm house in 1996.

Cheneys Farm also offers a selection of very versatile barns ( one even includes a lower level ) and the original stable block has been converted into a one bedroomed annex.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PROPERTY IS NOT ON MAINS DRAINAGE.

Don't miss the opportunity to make this stunning farmhouse your new home. Embrace the character and charm of this property and create lasting memories in this idyllic setting.
