The Broadway, Lamberhurst, TN3 8DA

An extremely impressive four bedroom cottage in the picturesque village of Lamberhurst, enjoying beautiful gardens overlooking the River Teise and benefiting from a wealth of period features, excellent entertaining space and good ceiling heights.

This property is a good example of one that cannot be fully explained by the attached photographs and floorplans alone.

The current owners have taken considerable care to maintain this beautiful property and have retained a good number of period features throughout including areas of exposed woodwork to both wall and ceilings in most rooms, other areas of exposed brickwork and further areas of both quarry tiling and brick flooring.

Absolutely defining the property are the rear gardens - an especially large space given its central location with wonderful privacy in the form of mature shrub screenings and offering a large external entertaining space ideal for parties and alfresco dining with lawns beyond and then an extremely attractive BBQ area toward the rear, immediately adjacent and with views over the beautiful river Teise.

It's no exaggeration to say that one could truly feel on 'holiday' in this back garden, it really does have to be seen to be believed.

As currently arranged the property has a wide entrance hallway opening to a large lounge with feature fireplace, great entertaining space and good areas of exposed woodwork.

Beyond this an inner lobby opening to a cottage style kitchen with a number of wall and base units and beyond this a more 'open plan' lounge and dining area opening onto the aforementioned gardens.

There is also a ground floor cloakroom.

On the upper floors there are three double bedrooms to the first floor with a further family bathroom and an en-suite shower facility to one of the bedrooms, with the largest space on the second floor offering both an additional double bedroom and a loft or potentially dressing room area beyond.

To repeat, the photographs of the front elevation are no indication of what lies within.

This is a beautiful village home and we would really encourage anybody looking for somewhere special to make an early appointment to view.

OUTSIDE REAR: The rear garden is such an impressive part of this property it is a truly beautiful space and easily recreates the feeling of being on 'holiday'.

Only by visiting the property can anybody get a true feel for this lovely space this occupies and the sheer desirability of this space.

A well screened, large area of brickwork to the rear of the property with ample room for garden furniture and entertaining and numerous pot plants etc.

There is a wood storage area and a gate to the adjacent property (the gate to the next property gives rear access from the road by crossing the neighbour's gardens).

Three steps up and four steps down to the main garden area which is set principally to lawn with further screening, mature shrub and tree plantings with a feature pond to one side. Detached shed.

The garden then runs to the end where there is a further seating area and a brick base for a firepit/BBQ with a retaining fence.

The other side of the fence is the River Teise and beyond that farmland currently used as pasture.

To repeat this garden is one of the nicest gardens this agent has seen in 20 years of agency work - we cannot recommend visiting this property highly enough.
