South Street, Boughton-under-Blean

Boughton Court Farm is a beautiful Grade II listed country house in a picturesque setting nestled next to the parish church. Positioned on high ground within this sought after hamlet, the property enjoys a glorious outlook over stunning countryside to the rear. Dating to the 15th century, with 18th century alterations, the wonderful timber-framed structure is evident throughout, and the resulting layout provides a good balance of formal and informal spaces whilst enjoying particularly good levels of natural light.

Extensively and thoughtfully renovated by the current owners, the house provides an extremely comfortable and well cared for family home. Wood-burning stoves provide focal points in the reception rooms, and the ground floor benefits from underfloor heating.

The entrance hall has a flagstone floor and exposed beams which continue to the well-proportioned dining hall with a large bay window. Extending to the back of the house, a generous sitting room is dominated by magnificent, curved bracing and a deep inglenook fireplace. This elegant room is triple aspect and bathed in light, with views to the garden and beyond. Steps lead down to a useful wine cellar.

The southeast wing of the house provides relaxed everyday spaces including a cosy snug adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room. Arranged around an Aga, the kitchen has traditionally styled timber wall and floor units and a door out to the garden; there is ample space for a dining table. This welcoming room is bolstered by a good-sized utility/boot room and WC.

The principal bedroom is double aspect with delightful views and enjoys the luxury of two en suites, one with a bath and the other a shower. The second bedroom has good eaves storage and a bright en suite while the two remaining bedrooms share a shower room. A small study provides a useful additional space.

A separate annexe provides well-appointed accommodation to complement the main house. A pair of spacious en suite rooms sit either side of a fantastic, vaulted reception room.

This property has 3.4 acres of land.
