If you’re looking for a little - or perhaps a rather large - slice of history in your next home, this huge 18th century property could be just the ticket.

This beautiful converted barn is hidden in the countryside not far from the M20 and M2 near Maidstone.

While the £1.6 million price tag isn’t for the faint-hearted, this impressive property looks like it’ll be worth every penny.

The Grade II listed building, sandwiched between the village of Aylesford and the bottom of Blue Bell Hill, is nothing short of a Grand Designs masterpiece.

Its modern, open-plan living space is flawlessly intertwined with charming traditional character, making it the ideal hybrid home.

With 5,100ft of living space, the property has five bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a spacious en suite and walk-in wardrobe and an additional four double bedrooms, a fully fitted kitchen with an Aga, and a light, bright library room - the perfect bolthole for bookworms.

If you need lots of outdoor space, particularly for excitable pets, this home offers approximately three acres of private land secured by fencing, walls and hedging.

The luscious lawn is framed by a stone patio, shrubs, rose bushes and perennials, making it a delightful space to entertain in the summer.

On the market for £1.6million, this house is a great base for exploring the local area.

Within walking distance of Aylesford, the new owners will find cosy village pubs and plenty of dining options on their doorstep. It’s also just a short drive from Maidstone and the English Heritage site Kit’s Coty is also close by.

During their time at this magnificent property, the current owners have added a convenient extension, which now houses two of the home’s five bedrooms and a family bathroom.

However, there is still plenty of space leftover for new residents to put their stamp on this spacious home.
