Old dairy is cream of the crop

Looking for a slice of country life? Then this former diary just outside Headcorn could float your boat. With far reaching views across the open countryside towards Sutton Valence and beyond, Leighbridge Dairy provides contemporary living space in a tucked away rural setting.

Thoughtfully designed to retain the inherent character of the building, there are original beams and timbers on display along with vaulted ceilings and traditional arched hopper windows.

The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout with décor in a range of tasteful tones and shades.

The main triple aspect reception room is an impressive 25 feet long. There’s a free-standing wood-burning stove, ideal for the winter, and a door leading straight to the garden, perfect for warmer months.

There is ample space for informal dining in the bright, airy kitchen/ breakfast room which is well appointed.

The impressive, versatile living space also includes three good-sized bedrooms plus a useful first floor store room which is reached by an external staircase and offers potential for a number of uses.

Leighbridge Dairy is approached by a gravel driveway that provides ample parking alongside the double, open bay timber-framed garage.

The gardens are largely laid to lawn and there is a natural pond which provides a delightful focal point and encourages a host of wildlife visitors into the garden. The house is just over one and a half miles from bustling Headcorn, where there are regular train services to London Bridge,

Cannon Street and Charing Cross with journey times from under an hour.

Headcorn village centre has a good range of small and independent shops, a Sainsbury’s Local supermarket, pubs, a primary school plus a regular bus service.

Maidstone is nine miles away, and Ashford 16 miles in the other direction.
