Ranters Lane, Goudhurst, Kent TN17

A wonderfully light and spacious grade II listed converted barn with heated swimming pool in an attractive rural setting within lovely gardens, enjoying views towards goudhurst * cranbrook school catchment area *

Trillnghurst Barn was sympathetically converted in the 1990s to provide well thought out family accommodation that would be ideal to accommodate multi-generational occupants. It retains an abundance of period features, particularly in the form of exposed beams and timbers, vaulted ceilings, oak latched doors and open fireplaces. The property is set in an enviable location, on the rural fringes of Goudhurst village, within a short distance of the village centre and with Bedgebury pinetum just a short distance away. It offers a peaceful rural location, in a true away from it all setting.

The barn is set across three floors offering spacious and well-proportioned accommodation. To the ground floor is a spacious entrance hall, cloakroom, boot room/utility room, kitchen/breakfast room, family snug, formal dining hall, two double bedrooms and bathroom. On the first floor is a fabulous sitting room with glorious views across the garden and countryside beyond, master bedroom with en suite bathroom and walk-in storage, drinks and beverage pantry adjacent to sitting room, additional double bedroom with adjacent bathroom and a further double bedroom on the second floor.

Trillinghurst Barn is approached along a private driveway to arrive at an area of parking adjacent to a double garage. The gardens to the front are mainly laid to lawn bordered by mature hedging and an area of woodland at the foot of the plot. This latter area is a haven for small children as it houses a timber play frame nestled amongst the trees and shrubbery. A heated swimming pool with tiled surround is the perfect spot for those glorious summer days. The gardens also include a small orchard of fruit trees that bear an abundance of apples, pears, plums and cherries in the season, accompanied by a fully fenced vegetable patch for the green thumbed amongst us.
