Fosten Green

Biddenden, Ashford, TN27 8ER

A most handsome, stylishly appointed 5-bedroom Edwardian country house and significant outbuildings sitting in approximately 1.7 acres of attractive, well maintained gardens and grounds. The property falls within the prized Cranbrook School Catchment Area. Internally there are many retained original features including several striking fireplaces, parquet flooring, original doors, skirting boards, picture rails and magnificent, unusually large sash windows throughout, all in immaculate condition. Built in 1908 the property benefits from the key attributes of the age; beautifully proportioned rooms with extremely high ceilings. This lends the property a naturally light and airy feel which is further enhanced by the decoration in calming Farrow & Ball colours. But this home has also been sensitively brought up to the most rigorous of modern living standards with some clever design touches along the way including a laundry room and airing cupboard on the first floor within easy reach of the bedrooms, an ingeniously designed shoe rack system in the boot room to neatly tidy away everything a family can throw at it, and a discreetly disguised media centre in the family room. Add in a beautiful kitchen / breakfast room and several stylish modern bathrooms and this property is the ideal period family home for modern day living.
