3 Situation Brockton Manor has no close neighbours but is not isolated and is situated in the semi-rural hamlet of Charing Heath. The M20 motorway passes close by and is audible but Brockton Manor is surrounded by its own stunning gardens and is set well back from the entrance almost entirely hidden from view within its own picturesque grounds. The village pub and playing field are within walking distance but for wider facilities the nearby village of Charing offers shops, surgeries, school and a mainline railway station. The thriving market town of Ashford has a wider range of facilities including modern retail outlets including John Lewis at Home and Waitrose stores along with other major retail outlets. Ashford International Station offers domestic HS1 services to London St Pancras in just 37 minutes whilst Eurostar trains connect with Paris, Brussels and Lille. The M20 motorway at Junction 9 is just a few miles distant and readily accessible. Brockton Manor Dating from the 15th Century and Listed Grade II*, Brockton Manor is a significant Kentish Wealden Hall House. This really is a fine example of this type of medieval architecture featuring beautifully exposed timbers and architectural details of the period. The current owners have meticulously renovated the property during their ownership achieving breathtaking precision and craftsmanship.

4 The accommodation achieves a rarely seen combination of high quality facilities commensurate with 21st Century living requirements combining beautifully with original characteristics. The numerous architectural details are too many to mention but importantly there are two staircases, a good spread of reception rooms and comfortable bedrooms including en-suite accommodation arranged over the upper floors. The accommodation is spacious, bright and airy throughout most of the house. Details Inglenook fireplaces, three coat lime plastering, oak carpentry, re-wiring, re-plumbing, wooden and brick floors, wall panelling, dias beam, dragon beam, oak bespoke kitchen units, slate flooring, exposed timbers and joinery. Services Mains water and electricity. Oil fired central heating (LPG for cooking). Private drainage. Viewing Strictly by appointment only.
