Sunlight glints off the water that is slowly passing as the river gently flows by. A light breeze ruffles leaves beside you and bird song surrounds you; sat on the river bank the stresses of life seem to slip away and the reason for living here becomes apparent. Having the right to use this nearby and easy to reach area of river was one of the key factors that drew the owners here and away from other homes they had viewed. The feel of the barn as they moved around it, the grounds outside; to follow the public footpath that crosses the fenced paddock and step out into the farmland behind to see soft fruit growing, all that and the stroll to the river to enjoy that environment, to be in touch with nature, to walk their dog from here, everything fell into place and ultimately has created magical memories they will take with them on their next adventure. They love the high ceilings, the feel of openness that comes from the gallery, those lovely expanses of glass that barns are renowned for and then things like the mezzanine storage areas in two of the bedrooms. Outside there is plenty of parking by the car barn, a loft hatch takes you to a wonderful storage area above it. A formal garden nestles up to the barn, step out from the living room or dining area directly onto it, a perfect place for entertaining and looking over part of the grounds (in total approx 0.7 acres tbv). Mixed hedging provides interest through the year and habitat for wildlife; the scent from the Linden Tree wafting across the garden was a magical thing during our photo shoot here. Lovely neighbours mean you enjoy life in a rural spot, on the edge of a quiet village and yet feel part of a community. By the way, although attached to the adjacent property it should be noted that only the external elevations and not the external walls are connected. It's the land behind, the countryside that draws you, the accommodation works beautifully and it's a pleasant surprise to know the barn is on mains drainage. The central heating is fuelled by propane gas and a storage tank is discreetly tucked away. If you're looking to escape to the countryside, the real countryside, to see the seasons change, the fruit crops be planted, grow and be harvested, to listen to the skylarks and watch a river drift by; this is a fabulous choice for a home and it's surprisingly accessible. Yalding, Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells, Maidstone, Sevenoaks, all can be reached easily enough. Marden Station is just over 3 miles away, less than ten minutes in a car for connecting you to London Bridge, Cannon Street and Charing Cross. Yalding Station, on the Medway Valley Line which takes you to beautiful Rochester or to Tonbridge and then onto Tunbridge Wells, is around four and a half miles and can be reached in under fifteen minutes.

Boxley Abbey is a unique and fascinating property, being a Queen Anne House at the heart of a complete medieval abbey precinct set within mostly walled grounds of nearly 22 acres, and now ready for complete modernisation and refurbishment, having been in the same family ownership for many decades.HISTORYBoxley Abbey was one of the premier houses of the Cistercian order in England, founded c1146 and dissolved in 1537. The Abbey was an important destination for pilgrimage with large numbers drawn by such attractions as the Rood of Grace, a crucifix that altered expression depending on the size of gift offered. The Abbey amassed great riches, enabling the enlargement of the barn in the late C14th. Its prominence was confirmed by Royal visits, Edward II holding court in 1321. After dissolution the property passed to Sir Thomas Wyatt and a large Tudor house was created amongst the Abbey ruins. The property acquired its Queen Anne appearance later, and its size was much reduced to create the manageable family home we see today in about 1820. The South Wing was added about 100 years ago. Extensive, mostly walled gardens were established in the ruins of the abbey cloisters and buildings, including a Victorian water garden in the nave of the Church and a chapel beneath the terrace walk. The Estate was purchased by the Best family in 1890. They originally lived elsewhere on the estate before moving to Boxley Abbey after WWII. In recent times the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings has undertaken annual work parties at the Abbey, uncovering fascinating details of its history and much work has been undertaken to preserve and restore this important site.The sale of the completely walled (now broken in places) abbey grounds offers a highly unusual opportunity for an incoming purchaser to purchase one of Kent's most historic properties.BOXLEY ABBEY HOUSEBoxley Abbey House is a handsome country residence featuring tall brick elevations and beautiful chimney stacks. It is listed Grade II*. The Queen Anne house provides 6,400 sq ft of accommodation arranged over three floors, with a wealth of retained and restored character features, including sash and original arched windows, fireplaces, hardwood floors and high ceilings with fine cornicing.
