About
There’s something special about cottage living, and this beautiful home on Durlock captures it beautifully.
Set within the sought-after village of Minster, this charming two-bedroom home combines period character, cosy interiors and a surprisingly generous garden, creating a home that feels like a genuine escape from the pace of everyday life.
From the moment you step inside, the property has a warm and welcoming feel. The cosy lounge is packed with cottage charm, with a beautiful fireplace and stove forming the natural heart of the room.
It’s exactly the sort of space you can imagine settling into on a winter evening, fire glowing and the outside world forgotten.
To the rear, the kitchen/dining room continues the character of the home.
With its country-style cabinetry, timber dining furniture and access out towards the garden, it’s a wonderfully sociable room, equally suited to quiet morning coffees, family dinners or entertaining friends around the table.
Upstairs are two bedrooms, together with the family bathroom.
The principal bedroom is particularly inviting, with plenty of room for a double bed and additional furniture while retaining the traditional feel that runs throughout the cottage.
Outside is where this home offers something increasingly difficult to find.
The long, spacious rear garden provides several distinct areas to enjoy, from the patio immediately behind the house to established planting and further garden beyond.
There is ample opportunity for entertaining, gardening, relaxing in the sunshine or simply enjoying having genuine outdoor space. And then there’s the lifestyle.
Minster is one of Thanet’s largest villages, with its own independent shops, cafés, restaurants and traditional pubs, alongside historic landmarks including Minster Abbey and the Church of St Mary the Virgin.
It offers that increasingly desirable combination of a proper village atmosphere while remaining exceptionally well connected.
Minster railway station is only around 0.3 miles from Durlock, making the property particularly convenient for commuters and those wanting easy access towards Ramsgate and Canterbury.
Families are also well catered for, with Minster Church of England Primary School approximately 0.3 miles away.
Secondary schooling in the wider area includes King Ethelbert School, Ursuline College, The Royal Harbour Academy and Chatham & Clarendon Grammar School.
For everyday life, the village offers local shops and services as well as places to eat and drink, including The Bell Inn, The New Inn and The Minster Meze & Grill.
The wider Thanet coastline and towns are also within easy reach.
