Yew Cottage on Hartley Green is arguably one of the oldest and most endearing homes in this sought after village of Hartley. This Grade II listed thatched detached Cottage is believed to date back to the 16th Century and is nestled in the midst of mature, established gardens approaching half an acre. The current owners have meticulously restored the property back to its former glory and offers a wealth of charm and character with a modern twist.
On entering the property from the reception hallway, it takes you to a bespoke kitchen/dining room. There are two further reception rooms, one giving access to a practical cellar with separate study and cloakroom/WC. Believed to have been originally two cottages you can enter the first floor via two staircases from the rear hallway. Here you will find three double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom.
The front garden which faces the village green is set behind manicured, secluded hedges and you are presented with delightful landscaped cottage gardens with vegetable plot and fruit trees. To the side of the plot is another garden area with a recently installed versatile garden building which could be a home office or a space to just enjoy one aspect of the garden. To the rear is a secluded and tranquil walled courtyard with ornamental pond along with practical workshops and storage. This then leads to a car barn and driveway for further off-street parking.
Steeped in history this beautifully presented period property has an abundance of authentic character including beamed ceilings. This home is now looking for a new custodian that will enjoy its charm of living in your own little floral oasis of Kent which offers an ‘escape to the country’ and a 'get away from it all' experience. Yet is still conveniently located for road and rail links into Central London being a 10 minute walk to Longfield Railway Station with direct access to London Victoria.
