All Saints Hawkhurst
Having undertaken a thorough restoration of this iconic local landmark, Freelands Property are delighted to bring to the market this exclusive development of just four individually designed townhouse style apartments and one stunning Tower house, modelled from this lovingly restored and Grade II listed former Church in the historic village of Hawkhurst.
Attention has been paid to every detail to retain the heritage and character of the property, whilst creating flexible and versatile living spaces. Set in a premium location in the heart of the village and within easy reach of nearby amenities and attractions.
The Building
All Saints Church was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott and is Statutorily Listed Grade II as a Building of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. In addition, it is in our view a key building in townscape terms in the designated Hawkhurst Conservation Area. Its 115 feet tall spire is widely visible and forms a significant landmark from within the village and beyond.
The Apartments
Four wonderful apartments have been designed and constructed from what were the Church Aisles, each overlooking the central nave. Whilst all follow similar principles of design and layout, each unit has its own unique features, such as internal terraces, stained glass windows or decorative sculpted finishes.
Each of the apartments have three good sized bedrooms, a kitchen diner and a separate reception as standard, along with a generous walk-in shower room and guest bedroom or study on the ground floor.
Tower House
The word unique is perhaps used too often, but The Tower House at All Saints is really something quite special and rarely found.
Occupying the entire former Chancel and the adjoining tower, property offers three individually designed bedroom suites. At the top of the property, within the former belfry, the study area offers 360 degree views across the Kent and Sussex countryside.
Facilities & Services
The development enjoys a good sized plot in the heart of the village and the Listed Nature of the property ensures that the grounds will remain protected. Residents can enjoy the large lawn fronting Rye Road, whilst refuge and cycle storage has been incorporated to the rear.
