They say never judge a book by its cover, and that is certainly true when it comes to this impressive property.
The three-bedroom house in Goudhurst looks like a traditional country home from the outside, with its idyllic location and spectacular views.
However, when you step inside you are transported to a contemporary warehouse that feels more like a London loft, with industrial features and modern renovations.
The exposed reclaimed brick walls, polished concrete floor, large skylights, Crittall sliding doors and stainless steel breakfast bar are all stunning character features added by the current owners.
The property, which was converted from a former pump house, has retained some traditional aspects of a country home, such as full height windows with incredible views of the fields and a cosy wood burner, to make the most of its countryside setting.
The family home boasts three bedrooms, including a master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and garden views, a separate ‘Jack and Jill’ shower room and a kitchen with a Rangemaster cooker and polished concrete worktops.
This modern feel continues into the living room, which is light and airy with exposed ceiling timbers and an open-plan layout.
The home is spacious throughout, and this extends to the garden too.
The property has approximately 2.2 acres of grounds, including a charming walled courtyard, a paved terrace at the rear of the house and well-maintained lawns and raised flower beds.
If this isn’t enough, the house is nestled within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has lots of country lanes, woodland walks and breathtaking views right on the doorstep.
The house is also only one mile from the quaint village of Goudhourst and its ancient church, period buildings, inns and restaurants. The busier town of Tunbridge Wells is also only a short drive away.
