The kitchen can sell houses, and properties won’t be on the market for long. Homes & Living took a look.

This stunning 32ft kitchen/family room is just part of the adventure at this three-bedroom barn conversion in 3.5 acres.

If you can tear yourself away from the contemporary woodburner, pop outside to land wild trout in your very own stretch of the River Len.

There are paddocks to graze a pony or two, some quiet woodland and a mill pond. The property also has planning permission to convert existing log cabins to holiday lets – just perfect for visiting nearby Leeds Castle.

The house has three upstairs bedrooms, a sitting room, dining room and an exceptionally large utility room with shower.

The agent considers that the ground floor could be easily reconfigured to create a downstairs “granny” flat or annexe.
