About this property
Set within the heart of the Hoo Peninsula, St Mary’s Hall Farmhouse is a distinguished Grade II listed country property of considerable architectural and historical interest. The house combines the charm of its 17thcentury origins with later Georgian and Victorian additions, creating a handsome and comfortable family home amid Kent’s farmland.
Constructed in red and painted brick under tiled and slate roofs, the property presents a traditional double depth plan with well proportioned rooms overlooking established gardens and open countryside. Throughout, high ceilings, sash windows, and period detailing blend effortlessly with modern finishes to create an inviting and versatile living environment.
St Mary’s Hall Farmhouse occupies the original manorial site of St Mary Hoo, once held by the Bardolf, Wiseman and Faunce families. The property was home to noted agricultural innovator Henry Pye between 1851 and 1909, who pioneered steam powered ploughing and marsh drainage on the Hoo Peninsula.
The ground floor offers a welcoming reception hall leading to elegant principal rooms, each enjoying abundant natural light and views across the gardens. A generous drawing room, formal dining room, and a study or library retain their fireplaces and original joinery.
At the heart of the home lies a spacious kitchen and breakfast room, fitted with contemporary cabinetry, a four oven AGA, integrated appliances and ample preparation space. A utility room, boot room and cloakroom provide everyday practicality.
The first floor features a fine principal bedroom together with several additional double bedrooms and family bathrooms, offering flexible rooms ideal for guest accommodation or home working. A cellar provides useful storage or potential for ancillary use.
Approached via a private drive, St Mary’s Hall Farmhouse sits amid mature gardens, lawns and established trees, bordered by open farmland that enhances its secluded rural character. Traditional outbuildings and barns contribute to the setting, reflecting the property’s long agricultural heritage, while modern farm structures ensure continued functionality for those seeking equestrian, smallholding or leisure use.
