St. James Square, Wadhurst, TN5 6BL

A beautifully presented Grade II listed character cottage located in the centre of this popular market town, with three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, 2 reception rooms, a garage and an unexpectedly generous garden.

EPC: E Coming to the market for the first time in over thirty years, this much loved character cottage likely dates back to the 1700s and has been revived by the present owners, having fallen into disrepair under previous ownership.

The cottage is full of character including an abundance of exposed beams and timbers, two fireplaces housing woodburning stoves, multi-pane casement windows, exposed stone and brick work, and drop-latch internal doors.

The ceiling heights are good and the house is unexpectedly quiet given its central location.

The property comes with a single garage and there is on street parking usually available to the side of the cottage.

Iron gates open to a courtyard garden to the rear of the cottage, where there is a rear door into the house and pedestrian access to the garage.

A path off the courtyard leads to the main garden, which measures approximately 15m x 20m (49’4’’ x 65’10’’).

This delightful, part-walled oasis provides planted beds, paved patios, a stretch of lawn, summerhouse and garden shed. It is a wonderful space to relax or entertain in.

Inside, the front door opens into the kitchen/dining room, with terracotta tiled floor throughout. The kitchen features pale cream base units with wood-block worktops.

There is a stainless steel Rangemaster range cooker with gas hobs and space for a tall fridge freezer.

Two cupboards located off the kitchen provide larder storage and space/plumbing for a washing machine.

There is a skylight in the part-vaulted ceiling to the rear and a casement window overlooking the rear courtyard area.

The dining area has a window out to the front and brick fireplace housing a woodburner, plus stairs rising to the first floor.

Accessed off the rear hall is a useful understairs storage cupboard and hatch to the cellar. The cosy, double aspect sitting room has wide Oak floorboards and windows to the front and side.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and en suite shower room. The family bathroom has a standalone roll-top bath, whilst the en suite has a shower.

This is a property that has to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
