Property description & features

Tenure: Freehold
A charming Grade II Listed detached cottage
Origins from the 16th Century with many original features
Double garage and gated driveway
Detached unlisted barn with separate access and huge potential
0.5104 of an acre plot including the beautiful garden
Beautiful countryside views to the rear

This 16th century Grade II cottage was originally farmworkers' cottages but converted into a single dwelling in the 1970s. It retains exposed beams in virtually every room, fireplaces and casement windows. The property nestles in 0.5104 of an acre of grounds and backs onto fields in an AONB. The primary gated entrance leads to a gravel driveway, a double garage and the original yew tree while a large modern barn with huge potential has separate access via a secondary gated driveway.

The cottage has immediate external appeal with its chimneys, Kent peg tiled roof, mellow brickwork interspersed with oak wall beams and oak front door. This opens directly into the spacious sitting room and also into the large dining room.

There is a traditional cottage style kitchen with a partially vaulted beamed ceiling, stand-alone appliances, a stable door to the rear terrace and terracotta tiles that can also be found in the adjacent breakfast room with its brick wall and understairs cupboard. The dual aspect sitting room has an impressive inglenook fireplace incorporating an historical bread oven, vertical brick pillars, a door to the garden and a staircase to the first floor. Here you will find a family shower room and three double bedrooms with high vaulted and beamed ceilings including the first bedroom with fitted cupboards and an en suite bathroom.

The rear garden includes a terrace, a large lawn with shrub borders and mature trees surrounded by farmland and footpaths. There is also a well and a bar adjacent to a high hedge that screens a fishpond and the barn. The barn has a boarded attic and huge potential as accommodation, office space or more, subject to the appropriate planning permissions.

What the Owner says:
"We found this wonderful cottage with its stunning views and lovely garden after a long search and have loved our time here but now need to downsize. Although it is a rural environment, we are on a bus route and school buses take children to primary and secondary schools. We are close to Lower Hardres with its village hall, pub and restaurant and an excellent farm shop. Nearby Bossingham has a good primary school while Stelling Minnis includes a pub, village store and the famous Minnis for a good walk, while Bridge has a supermarket, surgery, dentist, pubs and restaurants as well as another good primary school."

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 31, 2024

Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 31, 2024

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
