Striking, versatile & well-proportioned attached barn, located on a private lane & set within delightful gardens with far reaching rural views.
Description
Derby Barn is a beautifully presented attached barn conversion, situated at the end of a private lane within a charming semi-rural location and Greenbelt area. The property forms part of Horns Lodge Farm, a collection of twelve properties converted in the 1980s from the old farmhouse and outbuildings, forming a rural hamlet with a wonderful community feel and delightful views over the surrounding countryside. Located on the outskirts of Tonbridge, the property benefits from excellent access to stations and schools. The versatile, stylish and well-proportioned accommodation has been maintained to a high standard throughout by the current owners, providing superb areas for entertaining and family living. Features include exposed beams, wood flooring, double height doors, high and vaulted ceilings, underfloor heating to some bathrooms, bespoke electric window blinds, modern bathroom suites and a bespoke kitchen. Also of note is the attractive west-facing garden, detached double garage and ample parking. In total, the plot amounts to about 0.3 of an acre.
The impressive double aspect kitchen/dining/family room is a superb and light space, ideal for modern family living. The sitting room features an attractive brick fireplace and electric fire and striking full height doors to the front terrace.
The contemporary kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, integrated appliances and an island unit incorporating a breakfast bar with further storage.
There is a spacious study with a view over the communal courtyard and a TV/sitting room with access to the terrace.
A utility room with further storage, space for appliances and access to outside and a well-appointed cloakroom complete the ground floor.
A staircase rises to a spacious galleried landing, with a reading area.
The principal suite comprises a bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and superb views over the adjoining countryside. The room also benefits from two built-in wardrobes and a stylish en suite bathroom with separate shower.
There are four further bedrooms, two with well-appointed en suite shower rooms and three with built-in storage and another is currently utilised as a gym.
A modern family bathroom completes the accommodation.
To the front, a set of remote controlled gates open to the gravel driveway, providing ample parking and leading to the detached double garage with remote controlled doors which has storage cupboards, water, power and light connected. A paved path, partly covered by a pergola adorned with climbing plants, leads to the double height front door and a generous paved terrace, with several seating areas ideal for al fresco entertaining. The terrace also has an attractive water feature and a barbeque area. On from here is a vegetable garden with a number of raised beds, several fruit trees and two sheds.
The attractive part-walled gardens have a westerly aspect and sit to the front of the property, creating a lovely impression. An area of lawn is flanked by evergreen hedging and shaped beds planted with a wide variety of specimen trees, perennials and mature herbaceous shrubs, providing year round interest and a high degree of privacy. To the rear of the property is an attractive communal courtyard.
In total, the plot amounts to about 0.3 of an acre.
