The Limes is a distinguished Grade II listed residence nestled in the village of Otham. With origins tracing back to the 15th and 16th centuries, this remarkable home radiates timeless charm and character. The Limes showcases crafted timber framing beneath a traditional Kent peg tiled roof, a Georgian channel rendered facade with a plain stone-coped parapet and flat roofed porch with engaged Doric columns. Situated within the Otham Conservation Area, amidst medieval architecture and rural landscapes with far reaching views over surrounding countryside. The property offers the opportunity for some updating.

A panelled front door with a narrow rectangular fanlight over leads to the entrance hall with doors off. The sitting room has ceiling timbers, an inglenook fireplace and a sash window to the front. There is an office off the sitting room. The dining room has a sash window to the front, a cast iron fireplace with tiled slips and marble surround with traditional alcoves and cupboards to either side. The entrance hall leads to the rear hall with stairs to the first floor and door to the terrace. The third light and bright reception room has an arched window to the side and picture rail. The kitchen has a connecting door to the dining room, access to the cellar and door to utility rooms and walk in larder. A cloakroom completes the downstairs accommodation.

The first floor landing area is double aspect to the front and rear with stairs to the two attic bedrooms. There are three well proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor.

The Limes is accessed from Otham Street to a driveway flanked by pleached lime trees and an ancient mulberry with stunning topiary in the front garden. The gardens, which in previous years have been open to the public, are laid out with well stocked borders, lawns and a vegetable garden. The far end of the garden, formerly a pony paddock, has been turned into an orchard and wildlife area. There is a brick stable and separate storage room, two greenhouses and a garage.
