Beautiful family home with views, set within 4 acres on the edge of the popular village of Penshurst.
The Small Barn is situated in the picturesque village of Penshurst which is located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty surrounded by beautiful countryside. Famous for Penshurst Place and Gardens, the village amenities also include a church, village hall, award winning pilates studio, village shop, post office, doctors surgery and three highly regarded public houses.
The primary reception rooms comprise a double aspect games room and a sitting room with open fireplace and doors opening to the terrace. A well-appointed study has fitted shelving and could be utilised as an additional reception area.
The bespoke kitchen/dining room has heated flooring and is fitted with a comprehensive range of solid wood cabinetry with honed marble worktops and some integral appliances, with an island unit incorporating a solid oak surface and breakfast bar. The dining area features an attractive fireplace and views to the garden, together with doors from the kitchen opening to the terrace.
A pantry and utility room provide additional storage and space for appliances, and an adjoining cloakroom completes the ground floor.
Dual sets of stairs rise to the first floor and principal bedroom suite with a stylish en suite bathroom with twin basins and a dressing room with fitted furnishings. There are four further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and one with fitted wardrobes. A well-appointed shower room and two linen cupboards complete the accommodation.
The Small Barn is approached over a gravel driveway culminating at the garage and providing ample off road parking, with a brick paved drive and path continuing to the house. The detached outbuilding features a wood burning stove and cloakroom, and would suit an excellent studio, with doors opening to the south easterly terrace and swimming pool beyond.
The impressive gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with well-stocked flower beds and a variety of established specimen shrubs, trees and hedging. There is a swimming pool with a part-brick walled garden beyond, and a paddock adorned with wildflower meadow and a strip of adjoining woodland, with far reaching views over the farmland beyond.

The views are stunning with interior to match, and I love the garden room such a fantastic asset to the house.
