Oakfields, Biddenden
Oakfields is a stunning example of a contemporary barn conversion and enjoys a beautiful south facing aspect. Situated in a glorious tucked away position on the edge of the popular village of Biddenden, the family home is set along a small country lane opposite Chart Hills golf club.
The four bedroom property, which was completed in May 2019, with the remainder of a 10 year Build-Zone warranty in place, is a stylish barn conversion, offering contemporary living over two floors with the main rooms enjoying a stunning outlook over the lovely gardens with wildlife pond and countryside beyond.
The attention to detail is impressive and everywhere you look, you soon realise that a great deal of thought has been put into the construction with some clever design elements incorporated into it.
The entrance hall features a curved staircase, several useful cupboards and a cloakroom. Double doors open to the well-appointed kitchen with integrated appliances, and wonderful outlook to the rear. This area opens up to the spectacular main living space with vaulted ceiling and double sets of bi-fold doors creating the illusion of being integral to the outside. A glass wall with double doors divides the main living area and the TV room/snug from where the borrowed outlook can still be enjoyed. The ground floor also benefits from a guest bedroom suite and a utility room.
The beautiful curved galleried landing provides access to a principal bedroom suite with bathroom and walk in wardrobe, a second bedroom suite with shower room and walk in wardrobe, a third double bedroom and a well-appointed bathroom.
The property is approached via a five bar gate opening to a gravelled and block paved parking and turning area with double garage.
The gorgeous landscaped gardens are centred around a delightful pond with contemporary-style gardens with raised beds and a fabulous south facing terrace.
About three miles to the north of Oakfields is the village of Headcorn which has an extensive range of shops including a bakery, butcher, two delicatessens, a mini supermarket, a hardware store, post office, pharmacy, two public houses and a variety of restaurants/ tea rooms; also doctor’s surgery and dentist. Further shopping can be found in Tenterden, Ashford and Tunbridge Wells with excellent shopping, restaurants, boutiques, cinema and a leisure bowling complex.
Appealing to commuters, mainline rail services to London Charing Cross and Cannon Street can be found at Headcorn station. Eurostar trains are available from Ashford International, with a high speed train service running from Ashford to London St Pancras in about 37 minutes. There are also fast and frequent services that run to London Bridge, Waterloo East and Charing Cross from Headcorn or Staplehurst stations.
There is an excellent range of schools in the area in both the state and private sectors at primary and secondary levels.
Sarah Hunt, property agent for Savills in Cranbrook, says: “This stylish, contemporary home is all ready to move in to.”
Oakfields is being marketed by Savills with a guide price of £950,000.
