What the owners say: We bought this beautiful oast about three years ago as we loved the location and with a idea that it would be our ‘forever’ home and we refurbished and extended it accordingly including purchasing additional land. Unfortunately, circumstances have meant we are not able to stay here so we hope new owners will appreciate that we have done to make the whole place something really special. While we have focused on the house, garden and outdoor leisure facilities there is plenty if scope for another family to renovate the stable block and develop the outbuildings. It would seem from initial discussions that these buildings could be converted into holiday lets but possibly they could also become homes for other family members or offices for anyone who works from home but doesn’t want to be disturbed and needs access for business visitors. While if new owners have horses or other livestock the buildings could be used by grooms or other staff. While the property is in the countryside we are not isolated as the delightful village of Staplehurst is nearby and Marden is not much further. Staplehurst includes a convenience store, a garden centre, pubs and restaurants as well as a primary school, golf, cricket and tennis clubs and nearby is the famous Sissinghurst Gardens. Marden is a thriving village of Marden with a Michelin recommended restaurant and a country gastropub as well as a primary school and the Leigh Academy secondary school, a cricket and hockey club, a junior football team as well as the bowls club and the village club which hosts various activities. Both Staplehurst and Marden have mainline stations with trains to London Bridge taking much less than an hour. Excellent additional education facilities are available in the nearby towns including a variety of first-class grammar and private prep and secondary schools in Cranbrook, Benenden, Maidstone, Royal Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge where you will also find high street stores, independent shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cinemas and theatres.

A substantial detached former farmhouse with a striking barn conversion, set privately within approximately 65 acres of paddocks, woodland and established gardens, offering excellent equestrian and lifestyle appeal. Positioned centrally within its own land and approached via a tree-lined driveway through private woodland, the property enjoys a high degree of seclusion alongside versatile and well-balanced living accommodation extending to five bedrooms. The barn element is a standout feature, providing a superb double-height entertaining space with exposed trusses, feature wood burner and original arched openings—one fully glazed and the other with traditional shutters—creating a striking backdrop for both everyday living and larger gatherings. This is complemented by a generous principal suite with vaulted ceilings and a luxurious ensuite. The original farmhouse offers comfortable and characterful family space, including a traditional kitchen with Aga, dining room with open fire, multiple reception areas and four first floor bedrooms, all enjoying views across the gardens. Externally, the property is equally well equipped, with extensive stabling, garaging and barns, making it ideally suited to equestrian or rural lifestyle buyers. A secure courtyard setting incorporates a heated outdoor swimming pool and a separate two-storey pool house with changing facilities and a studio/gym space above. The grounds are a defining feature, with beautifully maintained formal gardens close to the house, leading out to interlinked paddocks, mature woodland, a natural pond and established hedging. The layout offers both practicality and visual appeal, with the scale and quality of the land rarely found. A rare opportunity to acquire a private and highly versatile country home combining character, space and a significant landholding, all within accessible reach of Gainsborough, Brigg and Lincoln.

Some homes have presence because of their scale, others because of their setting. Becket House possesses both. Positioned in one of the most distinctive locations within the conservation village of Greatford, the house sits alongside Greatford Hall and the parish church of St Thomas a Becket, approached over an attractive late eighteenth century stone bridge that immediately sets the tone for arrival. Hidden from the main road and surrounded by mature gardens extending to just over half an acre, it occupies a setting that feels unusually private and quietly special. For the current owners, however, it was not simply the location that first caught their attention. Having originally been searching for an older property, they were drawn to the fact that although Becket House was built in 1986, it carried all the visual character of a much earlier house. Constructed by a builder for his own occupation using reclaimed stone from an old barn, the property immediately offered the appeal of traditional architecture combined with the advantages of more modern construction and practical family living. Its origins are closely linked with neighbouring Greatford Hall. The house was created within what had once been the Hall's vegetable gardens and the historic wall that still encloses the rear garden forms part of the original boundary to the estate. Today, those connections remain part of the property's character, giving Becket House a sense of belonging within its surroundings rather than feeling simply placed beside them. The approach is memorable. Crossing the bridge and passing the church and Greatford Hall creates an arrival that feels both atmospheric and unexpectedly secluded. The driveway sweeps gently around the house, opening into a substantial parking area and giving access to the garages. Mature planting, lawns and carefully arranged borders frame the front garden, while the church beyond provides a picturesque backdrop. Internally, Becket House extends to over 3,400 square feet and offers accommodation that feels both substantial and adaptable. Throughout the house there is a consistent sense of light and flow, something the owners have particularly enjoyed during their time here. Large windows and multiple garden-facing doors ensure that many of the principal rooms enjoy attractive views and a strong connection with the outside. The entrance hall forms a welcoming central point from which much of the ground floor accommodation unfolds. Double doors lead directly into the family kitchen and dining space while also connecting to the principal reception rooms and cloakroom facilities. The kitchen sits firmly at the heart of the home and is arranged as an impressive open plan family space. Generously proportioned and thoughtfully designed, it incorporates extensive cabinetry and a large central island beneath stone work surfaces, creating a practical arrangement for everyday life as well as entertaining. The owners comment that the house works exceptionally well for gatherings and celebrations, particularly during Christmas when the layout allows guests to move naturally between spaces. The open arrangement downstairs has hosted numerous parties over the years and the relationship between the house and garden becomes particularly apparent during the warmer months. French doors open directly from the dining and living areas onto the south facing gardens beyond. In fact, the owners note that three separate sets of doors along the rear elevation all frame views of the gardens and allow the outside to become part of day-to-day life. Beyond the principal kitchen space sits the striking garden room. With its vaulted glazed atrium ceiling and generous proportions, it provides an impressive additional reception space with a character entirely of its own. Filled with natural light and enjoying direct access to the garden and driveway, it creates a room that can function equally well as a quieter retreat or as part of larger entertaining occasions. Elsewhere, the house provides a selection of further reception areas suited to both family life and more formal occasions. The principal sitting room enjoys a dual aspect arrangement that allows light to move through the room throughout the day. French doors open directly onto the gardens, while a wood burning stove set within a stone fireplace creates a more intimate focal point during colder months. Alongside sits a substantial study. Beautifully proportioned and overlooking the gardens, it offers obvious practical use as a home office while retaining flexibility for a range of future uses depending on a purchaser's requirements. The current owners worked with Hunters Interiors in shaping much of the decorative scheme throughout the house. Their approach has been to create interiors that feel contemporary yet comfortable and welcoming. The result is a home that balances scale with warmth, avoiding formality despite its generous proportions. The first floor accommodation continues the sense of space established downstairs. Four double bedrooms are arranged around a large central landing, including the principal and guest bedrooms which both benefit from fitted wardrobes and en suite shower rooms. A modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and includes a separate shower. A particularly versatile feature of the house lies beyond the main bedroom arrangement. Rising from the garden room, a separate staircase leads to bedroom five, complete with its own en suite shower room. Positioned independently from the principal first floor accommodation, it offers flexibility for guests, older children or multi-generational arrangements. Alongside the main house sits The Barn, a detached ancillary cottage arranged over two floors. Separate from the principal accommodation and with its own parking and garden area, The Barn is currently let and introduces opportunities for a range of future uses, subject to any necessary requirements. The accommodation includes a kitchen and sitting room at ground floor level with two bedrooms and a bathroom above. Well-proportioned throughout, it is a valuable addition to the overall property. Outside, the gardens have received considerable attention during the current ownership, with extensive investment in the landscape design, reshaping and development of the gardens to create a stronger sense of structure and year-round interest. Particular attention was given to planting and borders, including the creation of a substantial herbaceous border running alongside the original boundary wall. This was designed specifically to provide colour and interest throughout the seasons and forms one of the defining features of the gardens today. The rear gardens are especially private and enjoy a south facing orientation. Expansive lawns combine with mature planting, pathways and seating areas to create a sequence of spaces rather than a single open area. Framed by established trees, walls and planting, the gardens feel sheltered and peaceful while still retaining a sense of openness. The owners describe the property as ideal for entertaining but equally suited to quieter, day-to-day enjoyment. It is not only the house itself they will miss, but also the wider village community. Greatford has long been known for its strong sense of community and village spirit. The village hall forms the centre of many local activities and events throughout the year, including regular gatherings and summer celebrations. According to the owners there is a genuine sense of people looking after one another and stepping forward when help is needed. Combined with the convenience of Stamford, Bourne and Peterborough nearby, together with excellent schooling and transport connections, Becket House offers an unusual combination of privacy, practicality and character. Some houses offer attractive accommodation. Others offer memorable settings. Becket House manages to combine both in a way that feels increasingly difficult to find.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

There is something immediately compelling about Ragstone House. Approached through the quiet hamlet of Pilsgate, just outside Stamford, it combines the mellow character of a traditional limestone home with the scale, finish and versatility more often associated with a contemporary country house. Behind its handsome stone elevations lies a property that has been comprehensively transformed by the current owners, creating a home that is both deeply practical and undeniably luxurious. Originally formed from four workers' cottages owned by the Burghley Estate, the oldest parts of the house are believed to date back to the mid-1800s. In the 1960s, the cottages were combined into a single dwelling by an architect who wrote for Ideal Home magazine, with the property subsequently featured in the publication following its conversion. Today, that rich architectural evolution remains evident throughout the house, where exposed stone walls, substantial timber beams and traditional proportions sit comfortably alongside crisp contemporary finishes and thoughtfully designed open-plan spaces. For the current owners, Ragstone House stood apart immediately. Its size and proportions, proximity to Stamford and excellent independent schooling, and the opportunity to undertake a full renovation all proved irresistible. They were drawn not simply to the property itself, but to the chance to create a long-term family home tailored entirely to their own tastes and way of life. What followed was an extensive programme of improvement and modernisation that has fundamentally elevated the house while remaining sympathetic to its origins. Conservation approved casement windows were installed in 2019, and in 2021 and 2022 the owners temporarily vacated the property while a comprehensive back-to-brick refurbishment was undertaken. The works included complete rewiring and replumbing, upgraded insulation, replacement joists where required and the installation of a new three-phase electricity supply. At the same time, a substantial triple garage with office and shower room above was constructed, significantly enhancing the flexibility of the property. The result is a house that feels exceptionally cohesive. The interiors have been finished to an incredibly high standard. In the communal spaces, a calm, neutral palette has been used, creating a light and airy atmosphere throughout while allowing the building's original features to take centre stage. In other areas, stronger colours really highlight the various features of the property. Natural timber has been carefully exposed wherever possible, lending warmth and texture to the spaces. Downstairs, elegant flagstone flooring from Stamford Stone runs through much of the ground floor, complemented by oak flooring in the reception room and snug, all benefiting from underfloor heating. Upstairs, the landing features oak parquet flooring, while the bedrooms are finished in soft neutral carpets that contribute to the sense of comfort and understated luxury. At the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen and dining space. Beautifully designed for both day-to-day family life and larger-scale entertaining, it balances practicality with striking aesthetics. Dark cabinetry, warm timber surfaces and stone flooring create a sophisticated yet welcoming feel, while the substantial central copper island naturally draws people together. The adjoining dining area is flooded with light from dramatic glazing overlooking the garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and out. It is easy to understand why the owners spend much of their time here. They describe the kitchen as the social centre of the house, somewhere friends and family naturally gather, whether for relaxed evenings or larger celebrations. The sense of flow between the kitchen, dining area and garden makes the house particularly well suited to entertaining. Equally inviting is the reception room, where exposed stonework, deeply textured timber beams and a substantial fireplace create a wonderfully atmospheric space. The owners particularly enjoy relaxing here beside the log burner during the colder months, and despite the scale of the property, there is a genuine sense of warmth and comfort throughout. Additional flexible rooms provide options for a snug, study, playroom or home working space, allowing the house to adapt easily to changing family needs. Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms provide generous and versatile accommodation. The principal suite is especially impressive, while the bathrooms throughout the house have been finished to an exceptional standard, combining high-quality fittings with elegant, timeless styling. Every element feels carefully considered, continuing the restrained and cohesive design language seen across the property. Externally, Ragstone House is equally impressive. A large paved forecourt provides extensive parking and leads to the triple garage block, above which sits a substantial open-plan room complete with shower facilities. Whether used as a gym, studio, office, showroom or additional workspace, it offers significant flexibility for modern living. The gardens have been designed to provide both privacy and enjoyment. Mature trees and established planting create a wonderfully secluded setting, while the swimming pool and hot tub (available by separate negotiation) transform the property during the summer months. The owners describe the atmosphere as being akin to a holiday at home, particularly on warm sunny days when friends and family gather around the pool and terrace for parties and long evenings outdoors. What makes Ragstone House particularly special is its versatility. Despite its generous proportions, it remains an extremely comfortable and liveable family home, with a variety of spaces that allow both togetherness and privacy. Whether hosting large social occasions, relaxing quietly by the fire or enjoying the garden in summer, the house adapts effortlessly to every season and occasion. The location has also played a significant role in the owners' enjoyment of the property. Pilsgate offers an appealing balance between peaceful rural living and excellent accessibility. Stamford is only a short distance away, making evenings out and day-to-day amenities easily accessible, while the surrounding countryside provides wonderful walking opportunities. The owners particularly valued the proximity to schools. Their daughter was able to cycle safely into Stamford using the footpath network, giving her a sense of independence, while school transport for Oakham School conveniently stops just outside the house. The nearby Millstone Inn in Barnack is within walking distance and has become a favourite local destination, while sporting facilities including tennis clubs at Barnack and Ketton add further appeal to the area. After eight years at Ragstone House, the owners speak about the property with enormous affection. They describe having poured their hearts into the house, creating a home that reflects both their personalities and tastes. It is clear that every improvement has been made with care, consideration and a genuine appreciation for the building itself. Ragstone House is therefore far more than simply a beautifully renovated period property. It is a home where historic character and modern living have been brought together with exceptional success, creating a sophisticated yet welcoming country residence in one of the area's most desirable settings.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

Set within one of the Thames’ most exclusive private island, this exceptional riverside residence offers a rare combination of seclusion, water frontage, potential and understated luxury. Approached on foot via a private bridge, the setting immediately delivers a sense of arrival and quiet detachment. Surrounded entirely by the river and mature greenery, the island offers an atmosphere of privacy and calm that is increasingly difficult to find, where daily life is gently shaped by the movement of water and changing light across the landscape. The principal residence is a beautifully considered timber-built home, designed with a refined simplicity that allows the surroundings to take centre stage. Generous glazing invites natural light throughout the interior, while framing elevated views across the gardens and towards the Thames beyond. The result is a home that feels both contemporary and grounded, offering comfort and clarity in equal measure. Internally, the accommodation is arranged to provide a natural balance of living and private space, with three bedrooms complemented by generous reception areas and a well-appointed kitchen and dining environment. The overall impression is one of calm sophistication, with each space flowing effortlessly into the next and out towards the gardens. Within the grounds sits a separate detached dwelling, offering an additional layer of versatility and independence. Currently arranged as a self-contained one-bedroom residence, it provides elegant ancillary accommodation that may suit guests, extended family, or those seeking a dedicated studio or workspace within the same private setting. The gardens are a defining feature of the property, extending generously to the water’s edge where a 37 ft deep-water mooring provides direct access onto the Thames. This rare frontage allows for an exceptional riverside lifestyle, whether for boating, quiet contemplation or entertaining beside the water. A selection of outbuildings, including workshop and storage facilities, further enhances the practicality of the estate without compromising its sense of refinement. Despite its remarkable sense of seclusion, Wheatleys Eyot remains conveniently positioned. A short stroll across the footbridge leads to Sunbury-on-Thames, with its village amenities, riverside dining and direct rail services into central London.

An exceptional four-bedroom maisonette, with soaring ceilings, enormous natural light throughout, restored period details, and an award-winning architectural redesign. The home comes with a private garden, speaking to a way of living that is comfortable and effortless. Positioned on a quiet, characterful family street moments from Alexandra Palace, with direct trains reaching King's Cross in around ten minutes. Please get in touch for private viewings. This is an absolute must-see. Some homes are simply lived in. This one was designed to be lived in well. This four-bedroom maisonette behaves in every way like a house, set across the upper floors of a fine Edwardian terrace, with its own front door, two studies and a private garden. Standing at the end of the terrace, it draws natural light from more than one side, with an openness and privacy that homes in this area rarely enjoy. You arrive through a private, hedged forecourt laid with original black-and-white geometric tiling, beneath an ornate period porch. The home's own stained-glass door, an original piece in deep green, opens to a welcoming entrance hall. From here, a staircase rises gently to the first floor, where it meets a calm, light-filled landing beneath a strikingly high ceiling that runs through the heart of the home. A glazed internal screen sits between this landing and the kitchen beyond, carrying light from one space into the other, so the home feels connected and full of air from the moment you reach the top of the stairs. The front of the home is given over to living. Here, the sitting room, dining area and kitchen flow together. The sitting room has a high ceiling, an original ceiling rose and a restored cast-iron fireplace, framed by full-height bookshelves and filled with light from the wide front windows, while the kitchen is finished in warm timber with quartz surfaces, an integrated oven and hob, open shelving and a built-in window bench, set above a patterned tiled floor warmed by underfloor heating. The two spaces meet so that cooking, dining and gathering happen as one. This easy front-of-home life is the result of a single clever decision, to bring the sociable rooms forward and settle rest at the back, so daily life no longer crosses the whole home. Off the front sits a study, the first of the home's two workrooms, a quiet, light-filled space that today holds a piano. Walking back along the landing, a further room works beautifully as a fourth bedroom, a guest room or a second study. Beyond it, the family bathroom is finished in white metro tile with a patterned floor, a bath, and a period sash window. At the rear lies the main bedroom, the home's most private room, rising beneath a sculptural double-height ceiling with an exposed painted beam, lit by large sash windows and a remote-controlled, acoustic rooflight that opens to the sky above the bed. A fitted walk-in wardrobe and shelved headboard are smartly built in around it. The volume and light here are rare for a London bedroom. Two staircases serve the room. One descends quietly to the garden, discreetly set apart and almost unnoticed until needed. The other rises privately to the floor above, a quiet convenience linking this room directly to the second floor. Because that upper floor is already fully served by the main hallway staircase, this private flight is an enhancement rather than a necessity, and it can be removed without hassle to reclaim the full floor space for an owner who would prefer the extra room. Step outside and the property opens onto a front garden and, to the rear, a private, enclosed garden, independently accessed, with a paved terrace for dining set among mature planting and tall, established greenery, offering a sense of seclusion seldom found this close to central London. Ascending to the second floor, you reach a top level lined in warm birch plywood, exceptionally bright and lit from above by its own shaft of daylight. Velux rooflights open to the sky throughout, framed by bespoke timber shutters, and a tall picture window brings in generous natural light. The two double bedrooms are designed for comfort, each with its own built-in bed, fitted wardrobes and integrated joinery. Tall windows and Velux rooflights bring light from two directions, framing the open sky and filling both rooms with daylight; they open to let air move freely through the rooms. Alongside lies a mezzanine office and utility, among the calmest spaces in the home, with the laundry tucked neatly behind cabinetry. The shower room completes the floor, a wet room tiled from floor to ceiling, with a run of large overhead glazing that makes it feel like showering beneath the open sky. This is, above all, a home that is easy to live in. The space is generous; the storage is built-in throughout, so the rooms stay calm; the daytime and evening areas are clearly defined; and the light is constant from morning to evening. It asks nothing of its next owner but to move in. The home was reconfigured and rebuilt by architects Zminkowska De Boise in a thorough refurbishment completed in late 2018, which reworked the layout to bring sociable living to the front and rest to the back. The work was extensive and structural, including a new roof beneath Spanish slate with full insulation, an EPDM flat roof, and dormers clad in Rheinzink, as well as the sculptural plywood interiors and bespoke joinery that define the upper floors. This is a home that has been done once and done properly. The architecture has been widely recognised. The project was longlisted for New London Architecture's Don't Move, Improve! awards in 2019, exhibited at the Building Centre in central London, and later featured in Real Homes magazine. Recognition of this kind is rarely given, and never lightly, and it speaks to a quality of design that goes well beyond the ordinary refurbishment. The specification is considered the design. The home has double glazing throughout, with acoustic rooflights to the front that keep the rooms quiet against the street, engineered oak flooring, and underfloor heating to the kitchen and shower room. Behind the joinery, the practicalities are equally well handled, with integrated appliances including oven, hob and an integrated washer and dryer, new wiring and plumbing throughout, new radiators, and a system boiler with a 150-litre cylinder, serviced annually. The front path, which carries rights-of-way, was refurbished in May 2026. The setting is as considered as the home itself. Crescent Road is an established family street, where summer gatherings and carol singing mark the corner with Alexandra Park Road, and a nearby parade still keeps its family-run grocer, the Sweet Tree Bakery and a long-standing local chip shop. Neighbours know one another here, the kind of quiet, settled place that is increasingly rare in London and, once found, rarely given up. The cafés and independent shops of Crouch End and Muswell Hill lie within an easy walk. At the end of the road lies its finest asset: Alexandra Palace and its park, with the theatre, the ice rink, and the celebrated concert venue, alongside open green space, tennis courts, a children's playground, and a farmers' market each Sunday. The transport reaches King's Cross in around ten minutes, and the area is well regarded for its schools, with the finest Primary School approximately 0.4 miles from the door. The owners renovated the property with great care, shaping it for comfort so that its daytime and evening spaces are clearly defined. It is this thoughtful zoning, together with the generous built-in storage and the abundance of natural light, that they consider its lasting strength. The property is offered with a Share of Freehold on a 999-year lease from 1996, sits within council tax band C, and is available chain-free. Homes that combine the space and independence of a house with the security of a share of freehold and a design of this standing are rare, and rarer still in a setting like this one. The owners move on now to their next chapter, and they leave with real fondness for a home and a neighbourhood they have been truly happy in. To understand it fully, it must be seen.
