Borough Green is steeped in history going back many centuries and there are a number of historic houses here. One such house, found in a pretty location within the heart of the village, is Knole Cottage. This grade II listed home holds much character and history of its own, dating back we understand to the 1600's.

The home is found a very short walk from the High Street. Borough Green is a popular village with a good selection of local shops and cafes. The home is within the catchment area of several good/outstanding Primary schools and leading Grammar schools. There is a Library and medical centre as well as a large recreation ground. There are good transport links with the M20, M26 Motorways just a short drive away.

The Lounge is a large L-shaped room allowing for a reading or study area and a cosy area in front of the fireplace. The Dining Room is a wonderful space for entertaining and formal Dining and has pretty views overlooking the rear garden. Access to the cellar is from the Dining Room and offers plenty of storage possibilities although could be utilised in the future to be another room. The Kitchen is bright, modern and leads out onto the garden. Beyond the Kitchen is a storage/boiler room and beyond that is the old W.C.

Upstairs the first floor has 2 double bedrooms and a generous single. The Bathroom has a white suite that has been chosen for its country cottage style. The second floor is accessed via a secret door and houses a beautiful double bedroom with vaulted ceiling although is currently used as a home office space.

Outside the gardens are truly amazing and has something for everyone.
