A fantastic opportunity to acquire this stunning late 15th-century hall house, sympathetically converted to create a pair of truly individual family homes. We are delighted to offer 74 Ware Street, the larger of the two properties, which showcases an abundance of historic character, including arched braces and a jettied first floor beneath a traditional Kent peg-tiled roof.

Internally, the property is rich in period features, with exposed beams throughout and a magnificent inglenook fireplace forming an impressive focal point. Within the rear garden stands the original stable block, offering excellent scope and potential, while the generous garden itself measures approximately 132' x 50'.

This landmark building is offered with no forward chain and enjoys a highly convenient location, just a short stroll from the Village Green and railway station, with easy access to highly regarded local infant and junior schools.

An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the remarkable character, history and potential of this unique home – a wonderful slice of local heritage awaiting its next custodian.

Agents note: The current owner previously obtained planning permission to convert the existing stable into a one-bedroom annexe, as well as to construct a two-storey rear extension to the main house. Permission for which has now expired.

Identification checks: Should a purchaser(s) have an offer accepted on a property marketed by Ferris & Co, they will be required to complete an identity verification check. This is a legal requirement under the Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Regulations and forms part of our compliance obligations.
To carry out these checks, we use a trusted third-party verification service. Their cost is £52.00 (including VAT) per purchase, which also includes the benefit of Mover Protection. Payment of this fee is required in advance once your offer has been accepted and before the Memorandum of Sale can be issued. Please note that this fee is non-refundable.
