Price:

£3,395,000

Location:

Wrotham, Kent

Description:

Sitting within sight of the church and at the edge of the village, The Old Palace is a Grade II Listed country house which is rich in architectural historic interest, but which was the subject of a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and updating, several years ago. With origins dating back to medieval times, the site had been used by Arch Bishops of Canterbury as a stopping off point on their journeys to and from Canterbury. The present house is an amalgam of styles through the centuries and displays architectural detail from the fourteenth century through to the twenty first. Coursed ragstone external elevations under a pitched tile roof with some windows dating to the sixteenth century, medieval oak floor boards and inglenook fireplaces together with exposed timbers and oak latched doors are some of the aged features remaining. Twenty first century attributes include complete re wiring, new plumbing, a ground source heating system and a Control4 home automative system. Oak floors have been laid with light wells incorporated into two landings allowing for natural light to flood down through the levels. Programmable lighting by Philips Dynamite has been wired throughout and there is a media system installed in the media room on the second floor. There are oak internal doors and glazed balustrading to one of the staircases. Accommodation in the main house is arranged over three floors using two staircases, one at either end. Reception rooms all have a character of their own, whether it is historic or contemporary and the styling is sophisticated. The kitchen/breakfast room has been furnished by Smallbone of Devizes and includes a four oven gas fired Aga, Gaggenau ovens, fridge freezer and further appliances, whilst the study, laundry room, master bedroom and dressing room have been fitted out by Chambers cabinet makers. Bedrooms are generous and include two with en suite facilities. All sanitary ware and fittings are from Villeroy. Still available at ListedBuy!
