About
This enchanting property encompasses everything you would hope to find in a semi rural character cottage -- Adam Howell #TheGardenOfEngland A compact and characterful Grade 2 listed detached house with 3 bedrooms (1 double and 2 singles), beautifully styled and set within delightful mature gardens and surrounded by farmland in a quiet country lane, with a double cart barn, log store room, and outside home office.
This exceptionally pretty detached home sits in a quintessential country lane and enjoys fine aspects over the garden and across the surrounding fields yet still offers easy access to Ashford International Station providing access to Central London in 37 minutes.
Approached via a five bar gate with plenty of space surrounding the house, the property is screened from the lane by mature hedgerows which offer an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion.
Features of note include a fabulous Inglenook fireplace, exposed beams, sash windows, and latch doors, the property has been lovingly improved and offers the perfect combination of comfortable and stylish presentation with impressive character rich accommodation throughout.
A downstairs room currently used as the playroom could easily become a further bedroom with adjoining ensuite facilities, and an outside studio building provides a great work from home space entirely separate from the house itself.
The semi rural position is outstanding, surrounded by glorious countryside with gardens wrapping around the cottage on three sides, and an Indian Sandstone patio seating area upon which to enjoy such a delightful environment.
