Grade II-Listed Neo-Georgian Mansion Whites Up for Sale in Goudhurst, Kent

Whites, a stunning Grade II-listed neo-Georgian country house, is now on the market. Located on the edge of Goudhurst village in Kent, this magnificent property was built between 1901 and 1905 by local master builders Davis and Leavey for Sir Charles Jessel of Ladham House, Goudhurst.

The property spans approximately 6½ acres, offering commanding views across the valley towards Bedgebury Forest. The house boasts elegant accommodation on three floors, including a large entrance hall, two principal reception rooms, a study, a large kitchen/dining/sitting room, a master bedroom suite, seven further bedrooms, and four further bathrooms.

The current owners renovated Whites from top to toe in 2011/12, installing a sophisticated ground-source system for heating and hot water, smart house-control and alarm systems, ceiling speakers in major rooms, and 900MBps broadband throughout the house. The property also features a 350 sq m (3,767 sq ft) natural swimming pond by Gartenart and a stunning staircase likened to a nautilus shell, showcasing the quality craftsmanship that goes into every aspect of this magnificent home.

Goudhurst is a village with a rich history, being a center of the Wealden iron trade in the 15th century, a thriving weaving industry, and a hop-growing region. Today, the village is home to vineyards that produce excellent English wines. Goudhurst is 10 miles east of Royal Tunbridge Wells and 5 miles from Cranbrook.

Peter Whatmore of Edenfells Property is handling the sale of Whites, with a guide price of £5.5m. Interested parties can contact Peter Whatmore at 07971 226917 for more information. Whites has been owned by the same family for the past 40 years and is being sold off-market.

For those who appreciate history, architecture, and luxury living, Whites offers an unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of Kent's past and create a lifetime of memories in this stunning country house.
