Description

Grade II listed detached flintstone house, ideal for multigenerational living with outbuildings totalling approx 600 sq ft. Potential for conversion/extension (STP). Stunning views over Darenth valley, situated on the outskirts of the village.

DESCRIPTION

Hampton Court House is a distinguished Grade II Listed property, its flintstone frontage tracing back to the 18th Century augmented by a later extension to the rear.

Spread across two floors and supplemented by a cellar, the house boasts features including attractive fireplaces, wooden flooring and casement windows, some of which have shutters.

The beautiful, established gardens amount to about 0.7 of an acre and include a Summerhouse which would make an ideal office space, gym or granny annexe.
