An Elegant Grade II* Listed Manor House With 2 Acres, Tennis Court And 3 Bedroom Annexe

Believed to date from the 15th century (and potentially earlier), Wingham Barton Manor is an enchanting Grade II* listed manor house, occupying an idyllic rural setting in the hamlet of Westmarsh, to the east of historic Canterbury. The property extends to approximately 3,500 square feet of beautifully appointed accommodation arranged over two floors.

Outside, the property displays timber framing with plaster infill, red-brick elevations, and a jettied upper level, while the reception hall inside, with mosaic-tiled flooring and exposed timber beams, features a staircase rising to a galleried landing.

There are four substantial ground-floor reception rooms. Accessed from the reception hall, the generous dual aspect sitting room to the front has a brick-built inglenook fireplace with Bressumer beam over. The adjoining dining room is a further generous space and has a similarly grand fireplace. To the other side of the hall is a cosy family room and a further reception room currently used as a study.

To the rear of the house and with views over the garden, the kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with wooden worktops over and has a range cooker. There is ample space for a breakfast table. A good size utility room provides additional space for home storage and appliances, as well as giving access to a useful boot room and door to the garden. There is a cloakroom next to the utility room.

Two separate staircases lead to the upper level, where there are five well-appointed double bedrooms. The well-proportioned principal bedroom has built-in wardrobes and large en suite bathroom, fitted with a free-standing bathtub. Three of the four further bedrooms, have built-in storage, while one benefits. There are two family bathrooms.

The Annexe
The detached annexe provides entirely self-contained three bedroom accommodation with its own garden in a private setting away from the main house.
