Remaining in the same family for over 55 years, this Grade II listed Oast house conversion is offered to the market with no onward chain, making it an attractive prospect for discerning buyers seeking a property with character and potential. The triple Oast configuration, featuring two distinctive roundels, provides a striking architectural focal point, while the expansive interior offers versatile living accommodation ideally suited for family life. The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hallway, a well-proportioned kitchen, and a convenient shower room. Upstairs is the wonderful lounge and four generously sized bedrooms complemented by a second shower room, providing flexibility for modern family requirements.

The outside space is equally impressive, with lovingly curated rear gardens that have matured beautifully over the years. An assortment of established flower beds, productive fruit trees, and a well-tended vegetable patch create a tranquil and picturesque setting, perfect for outdoor relaxation or family gatherings. Gated access to the side provides both privacy and convenience. The gardens have been thoughtfully designed to offer year-round interest, with plenty of space for children to play or for keen gardeners to further develop and personalise. The property also benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking, catering to the practical needs of a busy household as well as garage with door leading to the internal property hallway. This exceptional outside space, combined with the property’s distinctive character and enviable location, makes this barn conversion a truly special place to call home.

Location
Barming itself sits at the edge of Maidstone, with the Oasts themselves on the edge of the rural area and ancient woodland of the Medway valley and Barming woods. The area has a rich network of walks and footpaths, well run local allotments, excellent primary school, is within the catchment area for all the Maidstone Grammar schools and only a short drive from the main hospital. Barming is known for being a welcoming area where people like to stay once they have moved there, a key part of which is the Church and local groups and organisations that meet in many community buildings including the local village hall. It is an area that is fortunate to also have two busy pubs, local shops and a post office. This striking and beautiful home sits as a symbol of the past, in an area alive with community and interest. Its rooms and history of over 200 years offer any new owner a long term home with roots and a sense of place.
