An attractive Grade II listed farmhouse with various outbuildings and set in about 3 acres.
Giles Farm is a beautifully presented Grade II listed detached country home on the rural edge of the popular village of Pluckley. The property is believed to date back to medieval times and has wonderful character features. It has thick beamed ceilings, wide oak floor boards, inglenook fireplaces (including one in carved Bethersden marble), Medieval panelled latch doors, original brick floors and Dering windows. The current owners have made significant sensitive improvements including the installation of a new kitchen and utility room, bath and shower rooms, new electrics and central heating systems.
The front door opens to a part panelled entrance hall and leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room with exposed original Pluckley brick flooring. It is equipped with a Smeg cooker and integrated Neff dishwasher, French doors lead out to a south facing terrace. Off this there is a generously proportioned sitting room with a wealth of exposed beams and timbers and an inglenook fireplace from 1488. An inner hall leads to the dining room with an engraved Bethersden marble fireplace, a Jacobean staircase leads up to the first floor. A utility room with WC concludes the ground floor accommodation.
Two staircases lead to the first floor where there are three bedrooms, two with en suite bath/shower rooms and a separate bathroom with catslide roof. A staircase leads to the attic rooms (currently used as a bedroom) and a study, both vaulted to the pitch.
The property is set back behind mature hedging and large gates with a gravel driveway providing ample parking and double garage with an office room above. The planted beds and gardens stretch away to the south east with lawns, a pretty farm pond and various fruit trees including apple, cherry and specimen trees. Nestled amongst the gardens are various outbuildings including an oak framed soundproof music studio with fibre broadband, a gym and a former pig sty and stables which are insulated and used as storage. This is all set within just under 3.2 acres of gardens and paddocks.
