A delightful Victorian property set in the beautiful village of Groombridge with its shops, school, public house, church and village green. This pretty painted brick cottage with sash windows was the original grocery shop until the 1980’s when it was converted to form a free flowing house with 4 bedrooms and a large kitchen/diner. This charming period home offers its new owners a great amount of space in a highly convenient village location.
A charming green door with storm porch leads into the long hallway and to the left is a spacious living room. This is a lovely bright and airy room, helped by its dual aspect with sash windows and fitted shutters to the front, and sliding doors at the rear to a small sunroom. An open plan kitchen / diner / family room provides a versatile space with the kitchen fitted with attractive cream gloss cabinetry, thick wooden worktops and tiled splashbacks. There is a Rangemaster oven plus quality integrated appliances which include a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer, plus an extractor hood. There is plenty of room for a table and chairs, plus the open access to the generous family room provides ample room for comfortable seating. This light and bright room has double doors leading out to the garden and there is a cloakroom which completes the downstairs accommodation.
The stairs in the hallway lead up to 4 good-sized bedrooms and a large family bathroom, fitted with bath, sink and WC. The master bedroom, with its lovely sash window, has an ensuite bathroom, with shower cubicle, a double sink vanity unit, WC and heated towel rail. All rooms have fitted carpets. There is cellar for storage and a very large loft space, which could be converted to provide more accommodation (subject to usual consents).
Attractive French doors lead out from the kitchen to the small bistro garden, which can also be accessed and enjoyed from the sunroom. A slabbed patio area provides the perfect spot for garden furniture with most of the enclosed garden laid to lawn. The present owners have added colour to the garden with an array of pots and plants and the brick outbuilding is a useful storage shed for garden tools. There is further storage in the form of the single garage, and the front garden has a delightful picket fence on a brick wall and a gate to the left of the property which leads into the garden.
