If the ultimate in unique properties is your idea of home, then look no further than the magnificent Hadlow Tower – or ‘May’s Folly’ as it is less reverently named by the locals. Once part of a Romantic Gothic style 18th century castle, the 175ft eight storey tower stands six foot higher than Nelson’s Column and is visible from Bidborough to Sevenoaks. Having fallen into disrepair and severely damaged in the 1987 storm, it was restored in 2013 at a cost of £4.2 million with grants provided by English Heritage and the Heritage Lottery Fund. Its impressive restoration won multiple Historic England Angel Awards as well as the Lloyd-Webber Angel Award. Now a fabulous private home it is accessed through the fantastic triple arched and castellated Romantic Gothic entrance on Hadlow village high street. There is a long and winding private road that passes a few individual properties and stunning countryside as far as the eye can see and ultimately leads to the spectacular tower, a parking area and the impressive walled courtyard. This includes additional buildings and a fabulous external window in what was thought to be the original castle entrance. The ancillary buildings have now been converted into six private dwellings and, together with the tower custodian, the owners of these six properties are responsible for the wonderful communal grounds that include sweeping lawns interspersed with impressive specimen trees and a beautiful lake encircled by a plethora of colourful shrubs. As soon as you see the iconic tower with its octagonal shaped exterior, arched windows, ornate mouldings and fantastic lantern you will almost be transported into a fantasy world and may perhaps wonder why Rapunzel is not looking out of an upstairs window. However once inside, while there are stunning original and historic features, it has been designed as a one-of-a-kind modern family home. There are three entrances to the tower and the main double height arched front door leads to a lobby with an original brick floor and a fascinating octagonal reception hall with interesting displays, terracotta flooring and, fortunately, a contemporary lift to the first four floors. There is also a utility room, cloakroom, boiler room and boot cupboard, a pair of original oak external doors and access to the main circular staircase and an outer secondary circular stone staircase. Opening the lift door on the first floor you are immediately confronted by a superb octagonal dining room where guests will be queueing up to be invited to a meal as this characterful room includes full height circle top arched windows providing far reaching views, a beautiful polished wood floor, a unique arched recess and sculptured oak doors that come from the original castle. These open into a small corridor with the main staircase and a second set of old oak doors that lead to the triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room with fantastic stained glass windows that were also rescued from the castle, access to the secondary staircase and shaker style units housing various appliances. The octagonal drawing room on the next floor is something to behold with its gothic casement windows, polished wood flooring, exposed beams and amazing brick arched fireplace with a log burner but is also cosy enough for the family to enjoy relaxing and spending time together. There are steps down to a double bedroom that also has a charming stained glass window from the castle, lovely views over the grounds, an en suite bathroom and access to the secondary staircase. You can take the main stone staircase up to a dual aspect double bedroom with a central beam and oak flooring, while oak steps lead to the principal suite with exposed beamed, storage facilities and a contemporary en suite. On the fourth floor there is a fascinating double bedroom with an octagonal inner frame surrounding the bed, an octagonal dressing room with a walk-in wardrobe, oak stairs leading to a superb bathroom and a door to a castellated roof terrace offering excellent views over the surrounding countryside. The next floor includes a useful study area and external access while open staircases lead to the additional floors. There are original six inch square vertical beams, interesting billboards showcasing the history of the tower and doors to the external castellated parapet with 360 degree views as far as the eye can see. At the very top of the tower is an exact replica of the original lantern that was destroyed during the Great Storm of 1987. The Tower also owns an area of woodland and grounds beyond the communal lake area and this is basically a blank canvas so new owners can create whatever they like. It includes a large shed that houses the remains of the original lantern that were retained to provide a reference point for the replacement. What the owner says: This has been a very exciting and unique home that I have been privileged and proud to own for the past few years. I and my family have thoroughly enjoyed our time here in this peaceful and tranquil environment, but my business is taking me abroad so I feel it is time to hand the baton over to new custodians who will appreciate the uniqueness of this amazing place in such an incredible setting. Although where we are is private and peaceful, Hadlow high street is at the end of the lane. This charming village is in a Conservation area and includes many attractive period properties and a variety of shops, pubs, hairdresser, restaurant, church, library and a medical centre. For the more energetic there are cricket and bowls clubs as well as a good primary school and the renowned Hadlow College of Agriculture and Horticulture that includes the Broadview Gardens complex that has a tearoom and florist and where you can enjoy wandering around the grounds. Other facilities are available in nearby Tonbridge including excellent grammar and private schools, independent shops and high street stores, pubs, restaurants, a theatre and the station where trains to London take around 30 to 40 minutes. There is the Tonbridge School leisure club while for golfing enthusiasts there are numerous golf clubs and courses within a radius of nine miles around Hadlow including the local Poult Wood Public Golf Centre. Historical Note:Hadlow Castle was built in the 18th century in the then fashionable Strawberry Hill Gothic style. It was extended in the 19th century and the owner Walter Barton May at the time built the Tower (May’s Folly). Local lore has it that he had it built so he could spy on his estranged wife but it was probably because he wanted to show off his wealth.

As the house was originally built in 1837 we felt strongly that it should be restored to its former glory and have paid attention to every single detail with no expense spared. As a result it has been given the highest accolade by the town’s ‘Civic Society,’ which looks out for excellence in development and conversion and was awarded by the Mayor. This house has been a wonderful place to live with a real community feel but also being detached with its own off road parking area has also been a godsend, giving us the best of both worlds. We have poured our heart and soul into every part of the design and, while we have loved living here, it’s now ready for someone new to enjoy it and the close-knit local community where we have made many friends. Tunbridge Wells or, more formally Royal Tunbridge Wells, became a famous spa town in Regency times when it was frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash.

Additional entertainment facilities include a nine-screen Odeon cinema, the Trinity theatre, the wellrespected Assembly Theatre and exhibitions in the Amelia Scott cultural centre. For sports enthusiasts there are a variety of sports facilities available including the Neville golf club, cricket, football and rugby clubs as well as the indoor sports and a swimming pool while the tennis club is one of the oldest in the country with 21 courts including 8 grass courts. Sprint and summer brings plenty of festivals for adults and children alike. One not to be missed is the ‘Jazz on the Pantiles’ where people can enjoy al fresco dining while listening to some of the best live music in the Southeast while eating a range of wonderful food at the same time.

What the owners say: “We bought this house new in 2020, and it has proved to be a real Tardis—with plenty of rooms and space for everyone. It’s been ideal for our children, who can enjoy their own areas, while still giving us the opportunity to come together for family meals and fun times. The garden and family area has been perfect for social gatherings, hosting kids and adults parties, Christmas, BBQs and summer alfresco dinings. We also love the area, with excellent schools within walking distance and a great choice of local eateries to enjoy, including The Shuffle House (a family favourite), St John’s Yard and the Hidden Well or going for a walk in the nearby St John’s Park or The Common and it is only a 20 minute walk to the station where trains to London Bridge take just 44 minutes.Royal Tunbridge Wells became a famous spa town in Regency times when it was frequented by the aristocracy who came to take the waters and enjoy the entertainment organised by Beau Nash.

If your dream home is a lovely oast house surrounded by stunning countryside in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, then look no further than this gorgeous twin oast and barn conversion nestling in 1.19 acres of grounds and with no forward chain. This lovely residence was originally and sympathetically converted in the 1990s to a very high standard by the current owners including the installation of a heat pump, but it also retains many of its original features giving it such a unique character. However, it could be developed further as there is enormous scope to increase the residential accommodation by going into the attic for potential loft conversion subject to building regulations.The oast house is located on the outskirts of Langton Green village in a very rural environment but is less than three miles from the historic Pantiles in Royal Tunbridge Wells.

This is now being upgraded and will soon be opening as The Pig at Groombridge, an upmarket hotel and restaurant. There is a large, decked terrace and a gazebo surrounding the heated swimming pool, providing plenty of space for lounging in the sunshine and al fresco dining. There are also delightful specimen and mature trees, a lawn with shrub borders where the kids can play and, in order to be able to follow the sun all day and to enjoy every aspect of the garden, there are additional seating areas.

From the very first moment we stepped inside, there was an undeniable welcoming spirit and the beautiful inglenook fireplace sealed our decision. As a Grade II listed property dating back to 1703, it carries with it a rich heritage. We even had the privilege of celebrating its 300th anniversary here, hosting a wonderful party to mark the occasion.”“During our time here, we have been careful to modernise while preserving its charm. We added a garage in the traditional Kent barn style, blending practicality with character and a new roof in 2014. In the sitting room we introduced an additional window to flood the space with light - a lengthy process, but well worth the effort. We also installed a fireplace with a solid wooden beam, in keeping with the style. In the main bedroom we added a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom. We also purchased extra land to extend the garden.”.    “The house is full of beautiful features - exposed beams, many of which were reclaimed from old ships, each carrying its own story. My favourite spaces are the sitting room and dining room, both cosy and perfect for welcoming guests. The layout is unusual, with no passageways - each room flows into the next, making it ideal for entertaining. We are a sociable family, and friends have always loved visiting. In the winter, gatherings are held indoors by the fire, and in the summer, we entertain in the garden or by the swimming pool.”“The garden and orchard are wonderfully private, offering apples, plums, pears, blackberries, gooseberries, and even apricots.”The village hall has offered cinema nights, children's parties, church and fund raising events, fitness classes including pilates and yoga. It's a place that brings people together in the local community. We are also fortunate to have one pub which is very sociable. All amenities are within easy reach.”“What we will miss most when we leave is the sense of space, the privacy, and above all, the joy of entertaining family and friends here over the years. Attwood Place has been incredibly kind to us, and we have always considered ourselves its custodians. We hope that whoever makes it their home next will love it just as much as we have.”Entrance Hall    Period door to front. Carpet. Plain ceiling.
