East Hall is a handsome Grade II Listed house, set in a highly desirable position close to the village of Boughton Monchelsea. The property, which dates from the 17th century with later additions, features attractive tiled and weatherboarded elevations outside, while inside there is close to 5,000 square feet of accommodation with plenty of character, including six bedrooms.
This stunning house is in need of modernisation and restoration. Impressive original details remain, such as exposed timber beams and original fireplaces. The ground floor offers three well-proportioned reception rooms, including the dual aspect sitting room with its grand open fireplace, the comfortable family room and the formal dining room, both of which also have open fireplaces.
The large kitchen has tiled flooring and an Aga, as well as access to the walk-in larder and the adjoining utility room and workshop. There is also access to the spacious cellar for further storage and appliances.
Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to five double bedrooms, four of which are of similarly generous proportions. There is a family bathroom and a second bathroom on the first floor, while the second floor provides an additional double bedroom and access to extensive eaves storage.<br /><br />The house is set in delightful gardens, with far reaching views across the beautiful Kent countryside. From the road, a large driveway leads to the house and a parking area for at least four vehicles, as well as to the garaging block and stable.
The gardens to the front, side and rear are mostly south-facing and welcome plenty of sunlight throughout the day. They include walled gardens, one with an interesting feature archway often referred to as a Georgian gate by the family, terracing, patio areas and paved pathways, as well as various shrubs, established hedgerows<br /><br />The property occupies a peaceful rural position in the heart of the Kent countryside.
