A distinguished 17th-century Grade II* listed detached farmhouse, set within approximately 5.65 acres of beautifully maintained grounds, complete with a range of outbuildings and two exquisitely appointed self-contained annexes.

Having remained in the same family for over three decades, the property has been lovingly restored, preserving its rich heritage through exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Every element has been carefully considered, with natural materials, a period-inspired palette, and sympathetic dcor enhancing its historic character.

Foxenden Manor occupies an enviable position, featuring a tennis court, a glass-enclosed swimming pool, and expansive, manicured gardens. The living accommodation extends to over 6,000 sq. ft., with the main house alone offering more than 3,000 sq. ft. of impeccably presented space.

Flourishing in period features, the home showcases rich beams, exposed brickwork, cast iron column radiators, latch-key doors, and lovely fireplaces. These are beautifully complemented by thoughtfully integrated modern additions, including an oak staircase, intricate bespoke carpentry, and a handcrafted kitchen of exceptional quality.

Externally, the faade combines pale render, exposed beams, hung tiles, knapped flint, oak-framed, lattice windows, and a Kent peg-tiled roof, all meticulously maintained.

The handsome front door is set within a projecting porch, while a secondary entrance to the rear opens into a spacious boot room, providing a practical and welcoming everyday access point. This leads through to the beautifully crafted kitchen, centred around a large island and an electric Aga. A range of high-specification appliances are seamlessly integrated within bespoke cabinetry, finished with granite worktops, whilst a Quooker boiling tap adds a further touch of convenience. The kitchen is complemented by a separate, well-appointed utility/laundry room.

There are three reception rooms in total. The snug, located within the oldest part of the house, is rich in character with exposed beams and a wood-burning stove set within an exposed brick fireplace beneath an oak bressummer beam. An internal lattice window allows borrowed light to flow into the hallway. Two further reception rooms, each featuring wood-burning stoves, are partially open to one another and can be separated by internal doors, offering flexibility for both formal and informal living. The principal sitting room also benefits from French doors opening onto the sun terrace.

To the first floor, there are four generously proportioned double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms enjoy the luxury of en-suite facilities, along with dressing areas fitted with bespoke wardrobes.
