Rectory Barn

A quite remarkable opportunity to purchase a wonderful barn that has been structurally improved to extremely high contemporary standards. The internal installation of rooms and fittings remain, which affords the rare opportunity to model this striking home to your own taste and specifications.

• Exciting Development Opportunity

• High Calibre Barn with Structural Conversion Complete

• Additional Barns for Full Planning for Internals

• Additional Barns for Office/Annexe and Further Garaging

• Overall Plot of approximately 4 Acres

• Stunning Location with Far Reaching Views

• Just Minutes to Mainline Rail Stations

• Private, State and Grammar Schools all within Easy Reach

Computer generated images have been prepared to illustrate the style and quality of fittings that may suit the barn. They do not indicate that any such fittings will be supplied or installed.


Extensive plans have been drawn up which indicate a proposed layout on which planning permission was obtained. Alterations to these plans may be possible subject to local authority consent. At present the designs prescribe the accommodations as follows:

Basement LevelIdeal as a family room/cinema rooms/gymnasium. Accessed by either an internal spiral staircase or external door to grounds.

Ground Floor With a sumptuous entrance hall, a large family lounge open plan to a family dining area and wonderful kitchen, a further formal dining area, a formal drawing room, a guest bedroom with an en suite, a utility room, a separate W.C plus a lobby/boot room which serves as a link to the garage block. The garage itself provides secure parking for two and offers scope for conversion into a self contained guest/granny flat (subject to planning permission).

First Floor Accessed via a curved staircase from ground level. A very large master bedroom suite, on two levels, with dressing room and wonderful en suite. A bridge link accessing two further double bedrooms served by a further bathroom.

Second FloorAccessed via a staircase leading from the first floor landing. A stunning gallery with proprietary glass balustrade affording views over the lower storeys and entrance hall.

Externally There are two further detached outbuildings. The first is formed from a period barn that benefits from an extension. This building could easily serve as secondary accommodation or could be utilised as a home office (subject to obtaining planning permission). The second has been constructed as an additional garage building with two large bays. This supplements the main garaging which is attached to the principal building.

The property sits within a plot of approximately four acres that commands far reaching views over the Weald of Kent. Currently the grounds are arranged with the main gardens laid to expansive areas of lawn that are dissected by sweeping gravel driveways. Beyond the garden is another area of grassland easily used for arable purposes or as horse paddocks.

The property, which is protected by movement sensors and alarms both internally and externally is positioned behind a gated entrance and fencing. This important benefit provides a high level of privacy and security. There are a small handful of period residences in the immediate vicinity - all of which add to the exclusive feel of this property. Amenities are available in the local villages, with nearby Sutton Valence offering country pubs, shops and a highly respected private school.

Mainline rail stations are accessible within a few minutes drive. Journey times by rail to the City of London average at around one hour.

Chart Sutton is a small village on the edge of the Weald of Kent, approximately 5 miles (8 km) to the south of Maidstone. The village is small, with around 800 inhabitants and lies to the east of the larger and more known village of Sutton Valence.

Both villages are very accessible and are best approached via the A274 which runs in a southerly direction away from Maidstone, through Sutton Valence towards Headcorn and Tenterden
