An immaculately presented Grade II listed property with equestrian facilities set in over 4 acres.
Description
Farthing Green Farm is an immaculately presented Grade II listed family home understood to date in part from the mid 15th century or earlier. Situated 2.8 miles from the village of Staplehurst, this characterful property sits amidst very pretty gardens and grounds together with equestrian facilities, including a stable block, wash down area, all-weather manege and level paddocks, totaling in all about 4.33 acres.
The internal accommodation is superbly presented and features a beautiful 32ft drawing/dining room with exposed beams, wood burning stove in the sitting area, open fireplace in the dining area and French doors leading out the terrace and garden.
The sleek kitchen/breakfast room features a range of modern cupboards and central island complimented by Quartz work surfaces. Appliances include a Smeg range cooker, integrated dishwasher, freezer and wine cooler. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a study with French doors to the gardens and a WC.
Over the first floor there are four double bedrooms, including the impressive principal bedroom suite which incorporates a stylish freestanding bath, separate shower and WC. The other bedrooms are served by a family bathroom fitted with contemporary white sanitary ware. A staircase leads up to a large attic room, which is ideal for storage purposes.
Farthing Green Farm is approached via a gravel drive flanked by a lovely orchard planted with quince, pear, apple, cherry and under planted with a mass of spring bulbs. There is parking to the front of the house and the drive continues around to the stable yard.
The gardens are charming, with a terrace for ‘al fresco’ dining, planted borders providing year round seasonal interest and a gate leading to an established cutting garden planted with varieties of dahlias and fruit cages with raspberries, gooseberries and black currants.
The equestrian facilities comprise a hard standing yard with a stable block incorporating three stables, a wash down area/store room and tack room. There is a 60m x 20m Day Equestrian all weather arena and several paddocks.
