Description

This rural property, known as Overbridge Farm, offers a unique opportunity to live in the countryside with the convenience of a nearby train line to London or the coast. The farm comprises a Grade 2 listed farmhouse, outbuildings, and barns, set amidst 21 acres of pasture and woodland in the heart of Kent. The property has a lot of potential, with planning consent for a new house in the former cowshed, and opportunities to convert other buildings into offices, a gym, or ancillary accommodation. The farm is surrounded by fields and woodland, with a private road and a green lane providing access to the property. The farmhouse has been well-maintained, with double glazing, insulation, and modern amenities, including an Aga and wood-burners. The property is ideal for those who work from home, with plenty of space to park cars and set up various ventures, including camping, yurts, and shepherds' huts. The nearby train station and local amenities, including a Sainsbury's and Co-Op, make it easy to commute to nearby towns and cities.
