Pike Fish Lane, Paddock Wood, TN12

Set within a small collection of properties in a countryside setting, this captivating, attached, equestrian property presents a unique opportunity for discerning buyers seeking a blend of traditional charm and modern convenience. Boasting a distinctive character of the region, this 5-bedroom home has been created within a 3 roundel Oast House and barn, with unique features and well-proportioned rooms.

The property can be found on a country lane with gated entrance and extensive driveway parking for up to 10 cars. The front door opens into the barn portion of the property, which is used a sitting/dining room with underfloor heating, woodburner and an elegant spiral staircase to the bedrooms. There is a further sitting room within one of the roundels and this also has a woodburner for keeping cosy in winter but also enjoys a lovely view of the garden with a door to the patio. The kitchen/breakfast room has shaker-style units with Quartz worksurfaces and an island unit, with integrated appliances including an electric double oven, electric hob and dishwasher, with spaces for a fridge/freezer and washing machine. Whilst the kitchen overlooks the front and has a door to the driveway for convenience for food shopping, this room also leads to the dining room with windows and doors to the rear garden. A cloakroom with toilet and hand basin completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are fabulous views over the surrounding countryside. The master bedroom is set within the second largest roundel with ceiling timbers and an en-suite featuring a gorgeous slipper bath, toilet and wash basin. A guest room can be found in the third roundel, whilst the largest roundel has been divided in half to create two generous double rooms still, each with views over the garden. There is a more modest double room to the front, currently used as a study and the family bathroom is styled as a wet room for ease and practicality. This super home really does work well for a family as all the bedrooms are good sizes and there are plenty of living areas to make it truly versatile.

The rear garden is beautiful, with a large, sheltered patio with raised ornamental pond and level lawn bordered by mature shrubs, trees and perennials. The garden faces north-west and so is perfect for catching the last of the evening sun on the patio, after enjoying sunshine in the garden for most of the day. An enclosed area to the side has been used previously as a vegetable garden and for dog kennels and a gate at the end of the garden leads to an area of hardstanding with an L-shape stable block of 3 stables with covered hay storage to the rear. Adjacent to this, is a large workshop, similar in size to a double garage and this has power and light connected, with a personal door leading onto the stable yard and vehicular access to the other side. There is a large, level paddock, enclosed with post and rail fencing, adjoining neighbours’ paddocks. However, your paddock has the benefit of its own access direct from the lane, making hacking much easier. We understand the total plot to be approximately 2.5 acres, with the house and gardens forming approximately 0.25 acre of this.

As well as the equestrian element, a standout feature of this property is the detached annexe, which the owners successfully rent out via AirBnB for an additional income. This super space, formally a garage, was converted approximately 5 years ago and features an open plan kitchen/bedroom/living room with a separate shower room. Stairs lead up to excellent attic storage, though we understand there is potential, subject to the necessary consents, to convert the first floor to create a master suite or two bedrooms. The annexe can be accessed via a narrow side path to avoid coming through the main house or garden, and it has its own secluded courtyard garden meaning guests can enjoy their own privacy, whilst you enjoy yours. This is a real asset to the property as could be a good earning opportunity, or useful space for guests or a family member coming to live with you but equally a fantastic space to work from home.

This property is a rare find, offering equestrians the space to enjoy your horses at home with you together with a generous family home, plenty of parking and an annexe, all surrounded by beautiful countryside yet less than 10 minutes drive to the nearest town, station and shops.
