Overview

Hecton Farm is an idyllically situated Grade II listed medieval hall house, set beautifully within its landholding whilst the quintessential Kentish weald stretches out beyond. Immaculately restored with an impressive range of outbuildings, high quality stabling and equestrian facilities, the property offers an oasis within which to enjoy country living.

Though an historic building (dating back to the 16th century or earlier), ownership since the turn of this century has seen its extensive and sympathetic renovation and refurbishment. The current owners have continued to enhance the property, resulting in a fascinating building in excellent presentation and providing a very comfortable, well insulated home.

The rooms to the ground floor begin with a welcoming farmhouse kitchen arranged around a large island and an AGA with the backup of a boot, cloak and utility room. Three well-proportioned reception rooms deliver excellent living and entertainment space of great character and quality.

On the first floor, the structure of the house is laid bare, with fine exposed structural timbers. The principal bedroom is set to the back of the house adjacent to a bathroom and a further bedroom which could be a dressing room and thus a comfortable suite if desired. There are three further bedrooms and a generous family bathroom. A mezzanine study enjoys a space tucked away amongst the mellow timbers.

This property has 12.77 acres of land.
