This delightful period cottage boasts an abundance of Victorian features - from the original wooden floorboards, original internal doors, feature fireplaces and sash windows throughout almost every room. On entry, it is clear that this home has been lovingly looked after by the homeowners. Via the front door is the generous lounge with a working fireplace and fitted cupboards either side. Through here is the kitchen/diner with a country-style kitchen with feature original exposed brick wall and benefitting from feature fireplace, oak worktops, butler sink, integrated dishwasher, induction hob and extractor. There is an excellent use of space here with the worktops running underneath the stairs allowing for additional worktop and storage space. There is a rear stable door further adding to the character and charm.
Leading upstairs are two double bedrooms of equal size. The rear room is being used as the second bedroom and has access to the airing cupboard and overlooks views across the outbuilding and over to the garden. The front bedroom is being used as the master, with a feature fireplace and rural views across Lenham Heath. Centrally, there is a large landing and via a sliding oak door is the modern fully-tiled shower room with a full-height shower, WC and vanity unit.
Externally, there is a long front mature garden allowing for a picturesque walk up to the property. Beside the house is a brick alleyway which takes you right up to the very generous garden at the end. The garden is surrounded by shrubbery, mature and is laid to lawn. Behind the kitchen is a converted outhouse which is now an external office with W/C and a garden store. This room is multipurpose, modern and has potential to be an annexe space. It benefits from vaulted ceiling and velux window, plus another two windows which allow for lots of natural light. Local parking opportunities are on the heath outside the front of the property and some of the neighbours have created driveways/garage using either the front garden, or in the rear garden accessed via Mount Castle Lane.
Location:
Lenham Heath is a small and tranquil hamlet in the Maidstone district of Kent, located just on the southern edge of the North Downs. Nestled halfway between Maidstone and Ashford, it sits near the M20 motorway and the A20. Despite its modest size, Lenham Heath enjoys good connectivity: the Stour Valley Walk winds through the community, and nearby Lenham railway station (about 2.5 miles away) links the hamlet with broader rail networks. The immediate surroundings are characterized by rolling fields, hedgerows, and woodland, giving residents a peaceful rural ambiance with easy access to major routes and public transport. Nearby is The Wishful Thinker: Elite Pubs and Chilston Park Hotel and with more amenities at local villages, Lenham and Charing.
