Located on the periphery of Upstreet village in Kent,
with far-reaching views across the Stodmarsh Nature
Reserve and towards Canterbury Cathedral, The Barn is
a stunning conversion of a Grade II listed, 18th-century
building with wonderful gardens.

The open and airy interior space (approximately 3,500
sq ft in total) includes four bedrooms, an open-plan
kitchen/dining room, a large studio and a spectacular
entrance hall. Designed by the artist Pauline Karminski
in 2001, interior features include polished concrete
flooring and a concrete stairway, a suspended wood-burning
stove and brushed stainless-steel skirtings.

Outside the house there is a large terrace overlooking
farmland and the Nature Reserve, gravelled car parking
and a carport as well as further landscaped lawns, beds
and trees. The property comes with approximately an
acre of land in total.

The Barn (postcode CT3 4DA) is situated at the end
of a farm driveway, on the edge of a small complex of
period buildings. The village centre of Upstreet is
a short walk away, offering a local store / post office
and pub. The nearby village of Sturry has a railway
station with connections to Canterbury and on to London.
Herne Bay station is 12 miles away and runs services
to London Victoria in 1 1⁄2 hours. Canterbury
is six miles away and offers a good choice of schools,
shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities. The
M2 / A2 road to London is easily accessible from the
nearly Thanet Way (A299) and the seaside towns of Whitstable,
Deal and others are within comfortable driving distance.
