Applegarth is an exceptional gated Edwardian villa in the classic Kent village of Benenden, close to the popular market town of Cranbrook, measuring 4,829 sq ft total accommodation and approximately 3.5 acres complete with swimming pool, tennis court and paddock.
The current owners have enjoyed residence here for some 30 years, during which time they have lovingly upgraded and extended the property to provide additional accommodation including the garage, master bedroom and conservatory.
A notable feature to the ground floor is a grand entrance hallway measuring 17ft x 17ft with open staircase, bay window and fireplace all typical for the Edwardian period.
Two independent reception rooms, a large conservatory, kitchen / breakfast room, utility room and guest WC complete the ground floor.
The upper floors host six double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes or eves storage and five bathrooms.
Externally a detached annexe with tiled roof could serve as a studio, office or a gym as it is currently used.
The swimming pool is heated and the tennis court surface has been maintained and is a very good standard.
Planning permission was recently granted for a single storey extension to the roadside of the house to be used as additional reception space or annexe.
