From the outside, the only giveaway that there is even a pool at all is its glass-panelled roof, planted in the garden’s lawn, which allows a stream of natural light to beam in as you swim.

However, the house has managed to maintain much of its rich history.

With origins dating back to medieval times, this incredible Grade II listed site has been used in the past by Archbishops of Canterbury as a stopping point on their journey to and from Canterbury.

Some of the historical features remaining at the property include the windows, a number of which date back to the 16th century, the medieval oak floor boards, exposed timbers and oak latched doors.

The main house isn’t the only attraction at the grounds. A visit to the cottage, where you’ll find an inviting fireplace, fitted kitchen and two bedrooms, and the summer house, which has bathroom facilities and is a great spot for barbecues and summer evenings, is a must.

As you check out these additional outbuildings, you’ll stroll through six acres of picturesque grounds and paddocks, including vast lawns, blossoming fruit trees, colourful flowers and shrubs, a greenhouse and a grand driveway with a six-bay garage.

The home also includes multiple outbuildings, including a self-contained cottage and summer house. Picture: Hamptons
