5 bedroom Detached House for sale,

High Street, Lydd, Kent, TN29

From the elegant main reception room a staircase rises to the first floor landing. The first floor is equally impressive, offering three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each of which enjoys elevated views over the surrounding countryside, enhancing the sense of peace and seclusion. A smartly appointed family bathroom offers a four suite suite with corner enclosed bath and shower cubicle with W.C. serves this floor perfectly completing the main accommodation.

Beyond the principal residence lies a fully detached former stable block that has been sympathetically converted. This characterful building now offers its own entrance porch, a comfortable lounge, a fitted kitchen, a dedicated dining room, a playroom, and a cloakroom with W.C. Upstairs, two good size bedrooms and a well-finished bathroom provide ideal space for extended family, guests, or even as as a family annexe. To the rear of this converted stable is a further self-contained area which is also annexed, offering ground floor accommodation comprising a bright reception room, a kitchen/breakfast room, a bedroom, and a modern shower/wet room. Both the converted stable and the annexes benefit from their own enclosed garden areas, giving each a sense of privacy and independence.

The entire property is accessed via an electric gated entrance that opens into a deep sweeping gravel driveway that leads into a large gravelled area providing ample off-road parking and access to both a single garage and an adjoining double garage. The gardens are particularly noteworthy, offering generous lawned areas that directly border open farmland, enhancing the rural setting and sense of space. Tucked within the garden is a beautifully finished, converted summerhouse currently used as additional guest accommodation, but equally well suited as a home office or creative studio, together with a detached sauna.

Wickham House presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a highly versatile property that would ideally suit a growing or multi-generational family. With its combination of elegant living space, high-quality ancillary accommodation, and tranquil setting, this unique home must be seen to be fully appreciated.
