Description
Grade II listed, this lovely property with parts dating back to circa 1750, has undergone an very sympathetic transformation by the current owner over a number of years, and is the epitome of a quintessential period cottage. It has masses of period charm and would suit a number of different buyers, even tall ones, as the ceilings are unusually high.
On the ground floor, there is a cosy sitting room with working Victorian fireplace, a spacious open plan kitchen / dining room with door onto the garden, and a good size traditional style bathroom, and to the first floor, two double bedrooms. Outside, there is a generous 50’ enclosed east-facing rear patio and garden.
Located in the centre of the village means that the well-used village store / post office are close-by, as are most of the other local amenities, which is what makes this cottage’s location so ideal.
In addition, this property benefits from being in the Cranbrook School Catchment Area and the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Rye, Camber Sands and Romney Marshes about a 30-minute drive away.
