This distinctive detached roundel Oast House, complemented by outbuildings and set within approximately 2 acres of scenic countryside, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Located just 2 miles from Tunbridge Wells Station and the Pantiles, it offers an appealing blend of rural tranquility and accessibility. Planning permission is in place for the conversion of an adjoining two-storey barn into an annexe, providing potential for additional living space or rental income.
The property features a charming courtyard-style garden enclosed by the characteristic roundels and weather-boarded outbuildings, overlooking a stream leading to the attached paddock. The inviting approach includes a stone wall with a brick path leading to an oak front door beneath an attractive pitched tiled porch.
Inside, the property boasts a spacious hall with original quarry tiles and Crittall leaded light windows that are echoed throughout the home. The triple-aspect sitting room is enhanced by herringbone oak flooring, a multi-fuel stove fireplace, and direct access to the outside terrace. A versatile dining room/bedroom four occupies one of the roundels, offering ample natural light.
The kitchen retains its character as another former roundel, featuring curved solid wood work surfaces, extensive cabinetry, integrated cooking appliances, and plumbing for modern conveniences. Notably, oil fired heating may require updating. The first floor landing offers views over the paddock while the principal bedroom benefits from generous natural light through its triple aspect layout.
Additional highlights include two well-appointed bathrooms with power showers and beautiful views from all double bedrooms.
Outside, expansive grounds encompass well-maintained lawns adorned with mature shrubs and feature areas such as a covered outdoor dining space designed to enjoy afternoon sun. The nearby studio presents further potential as a creative space or home office.
With planning permission granted for creating an annexe that could serve as accommodation for family members or short-term rentals like Airbnb, this property showcases significant investment potential as it combines historic charm with opportunities for modernization.
