Character oast cottage on nearly an acre with paddock and stable, needing refurbishment.
Detached oast-style cottage with distinctive roundel rooms
A rare oast-style detached cottage set within just under an acre, Oast Cottage forms part of the historic Runhams Farm and sits within the North Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The house retains distinctive circular rooms, ragstone and weatherboard elevations and open countryside views over the adjoining paddock — ideal for buyers seeking character and outdoor space.
Internally the layout is compact: roundel sitting room, separate dining room, kitchen, two first-floor bedrooms (one in the roundel) and a family bathroom. The property is ready for updating and offers strong potential for a sympathetic refurbishment to enhance period features and improve living standards, subject to the building’s listed status.
Outside there is a substantial ragstone stable/outbuilding and a large paddock extending the plot to around an acre. The outbuilding offers storage or possible ancillary/equestrian use but any change of use or conversion will require the necessary consents because the property forms part of a listed farmstead. Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating, double glazing of unknown age, very slow broadband and average mobile signal.
This is a character property for buyers who value rural seclusion, generous grounds and historic fabric, and who are prepared to carry out renovation work within the constraints of a listed building. Good local amenities, a nearby railway station with London links and fast access to the M20 add practical convenience to the rural setting.
