A Grade II listed hall house with impressive gardens, swimming pool and its very own giant chess board is for sale in Tonbridge, Kent, for 3.5 million.

Great Budds House, which is constructed of brick with a Georgian faade, is arranged over three sprawling floors. Set in the sleepy village of Shipbourne, it's perfect for anyone longing to escape to the country.

With charming period features including an Inglenook fireplace, exposed timbers and high ceilings, the house will take your breath away. Providing versatile accommodation throughout, some of the spacious rooms inside include the extensive living room, eight bedrooms, conservatory, lovely kitchen with stone walls, four bathrooms, and the welcoming dining room, too.

Some rooms are injected with cheer, while others are pared-back and more traditional (such as the floral-infused dcor in the bedrooms). What's lovely about Great Budds House is that every room is light, spacious and unique perfect for a new family to move right in.

The garden is a pocket of peace and quiet. As well as the rather impressive chess board (balmy summer nights just got an upgrade), new owners will also get to enjoy the beautiful summerhouse, swimming pool, tennis court, shrubs and flower beds, orchards, woodland walk, and a pretty Victorian style greenhouse (a well-considered shelter for rainy days).

Set in around 14 acres of gardens and grounds, it's the ideal place for all family members to recline. Whether children are exploring the expanse lawns or adults are dining alfresco, outside spaces don't get much better than this.

But that's not all: to the west of the main house is another self-contained property, known as the Oast House. Arranged over two floors and ideal for visitors, here there is a full-sized billiard room and table, swimming pool changing room facilities and shower, sauna and a round garden room.

Tempted? Great Budds House is currently on the market for 3,500,000 with Knight Frank.
