Manor Farm, Headcorn, TN27

An enchanting, four-bedroom, detached period residence, sympathetically and creatively extended over the years to offer a seamless blend of historic charm and modern comfort.

There is almost 2,500 sq. ft. of beautifully configured accommodation, this exceptional home is set within 3.49 acres of idyllic, park-like grounds. Dating back to the late 16th century, the property is rich in original features, including exposed timber beams, open fireplaces, and characterful oak latch doors, all thoughtfully preserved to celebrate its heritage.

Externally, the fa?ade is utterly charming, showcasing a traditional Kent peg-tiled roof, beautifully pointed exposed brickwork, pale render, and striking vertical dark timber beams. Leaded light windows further enhance the period character, while the extension has been thoughtfully integrated with composite weatherboarding and heritage-style bricks to blend seamlessly with the original architecture. The handsome oak front door is set beneath a pitched canopy, gracefully supported by a curved oak bracket, offering both shelter and timeless appeal.

The vaulted entrance hall offers a delightful welcome, here is an inner hallway with cloak which leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room, which forms part of an extension added in the early 1990s. The kitchen features an array of units that integrate many main appliances and are finished with elegant quartz worktops. A bespoke dresser and breakfast station, also designed by JM Interiors, complement the rest of the kitchen beautifully. The space is further enhanced by a separate utility room and a double-glazed conservatory that enjoys views over the garden and pond.

The triple-aspect living room is fully open-plan, thoughtfully arranged into distinct zones for dining, relaxing, and working. Characterful exposed beams reflect the original charm of this period property, while two open fireplaces ? one fitted with a wood-burning stove and the other a decorative feature ? are enhanced by handsome bressummer beams, adding both warmth and architectural interest.

A simple yet elegant open staircase leads to the first floor, where four generously proportioned bedrooms await, along with a well-appointed family bathroom featuring Villeroy & Boch sanitary ware and natural stone-coloured tiles. The principal bedroom enjoys far-reaching views and benefits from an elegant en-suite shower room, designed and fitted by Potts, a bespoke interiors company based in East Malling, just a few years ago.

Manor Farm occupies a generous 3.49-acre plot of thoughtfully landscaped grounds that wrap around the property.
