Manor Lane, Hollingbourne

Hollingbourne Manor is a fine manor house dating from the late 16th century. The property displays handsome red-brick elevations, striking tall chimney stacks and splendid decorative kneeler gables, while internally there is a refined elegance and sense of grandeur to the accommodation.

At the front of the house are two principal reception rooms: a beautifully appointed sitting room with an imposing fireplace, and an impressive formal dining room with rich panelled walls. Both rooms feature high, corniced and patterned ceilings, as well as large windows that welcome an abundance of natural light. To the rear, there is a study and a library, while the brick-vaulted crypt offers potential for use as an additional reception room or studio. The well-equipped kitchen is fitted with modern units, a granite-topped central island, a breakfast bar and a range cooker with French Windows overlooking the garden, while the pantry, utility room and cellar provide further space for storage and appliances.

On the first floor there are two immaculate double bedrooms, both en suite, including the luxurious principal bedroom with its dressing room and en suite bathroom. Stairs continue to the second floor, where there are two further double bedrooms, one of which benefits from a sitting area, kitchenette and en suite bathroom. Additional accommodation is provided by a self-contained flat with its own ground-floor entrance, with stairs rising to a first-floor living space comprising a well-appointed sitting area and kitchen, two double bedrooms and a shower room.
