This Grade II listed Georgian property and its iconic turreted three-storey tower stand proudly in the quaint town and have become a well-known sight for locals on country walks.

The house is believed to date back to the late 18th century and, although the tower might look like part of a historic Kentish castle, it was added only just over 100 years ago in 1904.

The tower itself holds a laundry room on the ground floor, along with a cosy bedroom on each of the first and second floors, which could easily be used as guest rooms or home studies.

Overall, the house boasts six bedrooms, including en-suite bathrooms and period fireplaces, a kitchen with a gas fired Aga and French doors leading onto a decked balcony, and a double drawing and sitting room with fitted bookcases, open fireplaces and garden views.
