"This character property has so much to offer. I was so impressed. Immaculately presented, a stunning Neptune fitted kitchen, generous sized plot and versatile accommodation". - Philip Jarvis, Director.
The Thatched Cottage is a Grade II listed detached property found in the rural Hamlet of Charing Heath.
Set back from the road the cottage has been extended on several occasions. The current owners in the ten years they have lived here have added a real feeling of quality having spent much time and effort to creating a most comfortable home. A new thatched roof was added shortly after they moved in.
As expected the cottage boasts a wealth of character features to include exposed beams and brickwork, vaulted ceilings, leaded windows and wood burning stoves.
There are four reception areas. A large living room, sitting room area, dual aspect dining room with vaulted ceilings and a study. The kitchen is a particular feature. A Neptune fitted kitchen with a seamless design and thoughtful detail to include quality cabinets, granite work surfaces, an Everhot range cooker, larder cupboard and dresser unit.
The master bedroom is accessed via one staircase with a bathroom and WC off the landing. The second bedroom is accessed from a staircase in the dining room and has an ensuite shower room . The two further bedrooms are accessed via a separate staircase. Finally a fourth staircase leads to the hobbies room.
The cottage would work for multi generational living and the second bedroom and double garage below, subject to the relevant consents, could make an excellent annexe.
The gardens are predominately to the front and to one side of the cottage. Well maintained and stocked with a balance of shrubs and trees. There are three patio areas to one side, ideal for entertaining.
The long driveway with lighting to either side leads to the large parking area and then the large double garage with double wooden doors to the front. The overall plot measures approximately 3/4 acre.
Charing Heath is a hamlet found between Lenham and Charing. The Parish Church, Red Lion Inn and local playing fields are within walking distance. There are a wider range of amenities in Charing and Lenham. They both have railway stations, primary schools and doctors surgeries. The county town of Maidstone is approximately ten miles away along with the M20 motorway providing access to London.
We would really recommend an early viewing to fully appreciate everything this most attractive and charming home has to offer.
