A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE A SLICE OF HISTORY! James Millard Estate Agents are proud to offer to market this imposing chain-free home, understood to have once served as the town jail and forming an integral part of the historic street scene behind's Westerham's distinctive green.

Owned by the same family for more than a century and sensitively modernised over the years, this truly unique property boasts a host of original features to include exposed stonework and timbers, fireplaces, joinery and sash windows, as well as elevated ceiling heights which bestow a striking sense of grandeur. Thick exterior walls also ensure that the property remains warm during the colder months whilst being a cool haven over summer.

Neutrally presented throughout and orientated over three floors affording stunning far-reaching views to both north and south, the property offers well-balanced accommodation with excellent scope for an imaginative new owner to adapt to taste (subject to necessary permissions being obtained) and add their own stylistic stamp.

Externally, there is a pleasantly secluded and well-established part walled garden extending to circa seventy feet with an attractive aspect towards St Mary's Church.

Residents' parking via permit is located directly to the front and your viewing is encouraged to appreciate both the charm and practicality of this characterful home.

-Morning room with an attractive bay window providing a delightful outlook over The Green and exposed stone archway which is understood to have been the original entrance to the jail when the property was not linked to its current neighbour
