House for sale in Hastings Road, Lamberhurst, Tunbridge Wells

Little Bewl Bridge Farm is a remarkable Grade II listed country home, occupying a secluded position on the edge of Lamberhurst and set within approximately 1.36 acres of beautifully established gardens and grounds. Believed to have origins dating back to the 14th century, with later 17th and 18th century additions, the property has been thoughtfully restored to create a home of real warmth, character and versatility, combining the charm of a historic farmhouse with the comfort and practicality required for modern family life.

Set well back from the road behind mature woodland and approached via a gated driveway, the house immediately gives a wonderful sense of privacy. To the rear, the property adjoins open farmland, while the western boundary is bordered by the River Bewl, creating a peaceful and picturesque setting that feels wonderfully removed, yet remains highly convenient for Lamberhurst, Tunbridge Wells and the surrounding villages.

The main house is rich in period detail, with exposed timbers, flagstone and oak flooring, substantial fireplaces and a collection of character features that give each room its own identity. The sitting room offers a relaxed and comfortable space centred around a wood-burning stove, while the dining room is particularly atmospheric, with exposed beams, a dual aspect and an impressive inglenook fireplace providing a superb setting for entertaining.

The handmade kitchen/breakfast room forms the heart of the home and has been designed with both everyday living and hosting in mind. Fitted with bespoke cabinetry, quality appliances, an Aga, walk-in larder and space for informal dining, it enjoys direct access outside through stable-style doors, allowing the gardens and terraces to become a natural extension of the living space during the warmer months. A study, utility room and cloakroom add further practicality to the ground floor.

The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive. The principal suite enjoys views across the surrounding farmland and includes a luxurious bathroom and separate dressing room, while the remaining bedrooms offer flexible accommodation for family and guests. A guest suite provides further character and individuality, creating a layout that works exceptionally well for a larger family or those who regularly welcome visitors.

A major advantage of Little Bewl Bridge Farm is the detached self-contained two-bedroom annexe. With its own entrance, two bedrooms, shower room and a generous open-plan kitchen/living space with vaulted ceiling, it offers excellent flexibility for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, working from home or potential income, subject to any necessary consents.

Outside, the grounds are a true feature of the property. Expansive lawns, mature trees, established planting, vegetable gardens, a Victorian-style greenhouse, summer house/gym, garden stores and peaceful seating areas all combine to create a beautiful and highly usable outdoor setting. The south-facing terrace provides a wonderful space for outdoor dining, while the river frontage, decked seating area and surrounding countryside create a sense of tranquillity that is increasingly difficult to find.

The property also benefits from extensive driveway parking, an oak-framed triple open-bay barn, garaging and additional outbuildings, offering excellent storage and practicality.

Little Bewl Bridge Farm is more than simply a beautiful period house. It is a substantial and highly versatile country home with history, privacy, land, annexe accommodation and a truly special setting, all within reach of Lamberhurst village, well-regarded schools, mainline stations and the wider amenities of Tunbridge Wells.
