Charming village cottage with scope to modernise and excellent school links.
Three bedrooms across multiple floors with countryside-view third bedroom
Set in the peaceful village of Chelsfield, this weatherboard cottage combines period charm with everyday practicality. The living room features exposed brick, a wood burner and wood floors, creating a cosy hub for family life. The fitted kitchen leads to a low-maintenance courtyard garden and a small outbuilding for storage or a workshop.
The house offers three bedrooms over multiple floors—two doubles on the first floor and a third bedroom tucked into the eaves with a Velux window and countryside views. There is one main bathroom with an original-style claw-foot bath and an additional en suite shower to one bedroom, giving flexibility for morning routines. Nearby stations and easy access to the M25 make commuting to London straightforward, and several well-regarded schools are within short reach.
Buyers should note the property’s older construction: timber-frame walls are understood to have no fitted insulation, and double glazing dates from before 2002, so modernising for energy efficiency will be beneficial. Broadband speeds are very slow in the area. The garden and cottage exterior will reward sympathetic maintenance and present clear scope for refurbishment and improvement to increase comfort and value.
Offered with a guide price of £400,000–£425,000 and council tax band D, this cottage will suit families seeking village life near good transport links, or buyers looking for a character property with renovation potential.
