Country life<br />
Maggie Alderson picks houses on the market to dream about<br />
Mason’s Farm<br />
The dream: A charming and spacious<br />
farmhouse, which has been renovated<br />
beautifully for modern life, while<br />
making the most of its character.<br />
There is a splendid timber hand-built<br />
kitchen, with a very jolly bright red<br />
island. The almost galleried tripleaspect<br />
drawing room has dreamy<br />
beams and posts, an impressive<br />
inglenook and doors to the courtyard.<br />
The side entrance opens directly into<br />
a generous boot room. There are more<br />
beams in the master bedroom.<br />
Where: The village of Grafty Green,<br />
four miles from Headcorn.<br />
Setting: In the village, with wonderful<br />
countryside views.<br />
Beds: 6 Baths: 4, three en suite.<br />
Special features: You would live in the<br />
glorious orangery.<br />
Pleasing details: A splendid<br />
swimming pool and gym annexe.<br />
Outside: The gardens are beautifully<br />
laid out, divided into interesting areas,<br />
including box topiary and a rose<br />
garden. There is a stable block with<br />
three loose boxes, tack room and feed<br />
store and a manège.<br />
Time to town: From Headcorn station<br />
it’s an hour and 15 to Cannon Street<br />
and Charing Cross, just over an hour<br />
to St Pancras via Ashford.<br />
Price: £1,450,000.<br />
