EPC band: CBranden Oast is a fabulous conversion of a twin roundel oast with versatile and very well-proportioned accommodation that could provide the opportunity for multi-generational living.Historically, Branden Oast was a working oast house used for drying hops and more latterly an office building, but now having been cleverly and sympathetically converted it provides a stylish and inviting home which blends the character of the original building with a chic modern twist. The property is flooded from all angles by natural light and the high circular ceilings in the oast bedrooms are simply stunning. The huge engineered traditional block paved driveway and beautiful landscaped exterior make it dream for large gatherings in the summer with the stunning kitchen being the hub of the house flowing seamlessly to the outside. The inside of this property simply has to be experienced to appreciate its many wow features.   Room sizes and layout can be found on the floorplans and 360 tour. So why not immerse yourself in this fabulous house and then book your private onsite viewing.   AccommodationGround FloorEntrance Hallway with built in wardrobes and pantry Formal lounge with log burnerLarge Dining room3rd ReceptionStudy/officeKitchen/Diner with vaulted ceilingShower room and WCBedroom 5 First FloorLanding4 Bedrooms ( 2 located in the oasts with high ceilings and multi aspect windows)Family bathroom2 Further en-suites  ExteriorLandscaped low maintenance gardens with patio and large outside kitchen ideal for al-fresco dining. Lodge for storage or potential home office use.Block paved driveway for 10 cars                                                      We spoke to the vendors about their stunning home and they were kind enough to provide us with the following information which we feel gives a real insight to the property What attracted you to the property when you bought it?On the first look of the property we were really impressed with the mix of majestic tradition of a double roundel oast house and the modern openness and flow of the interior. This is a combination that we had never seen before but dreamed we could own.
