Four bedrooms, two bathrooms; approx 1,454 sq ft total

Tucked on the outskirts of Headcorn, this newly renovated semi‑detached cottage blends original Bethersden marble character with contemporary living. The heart of the home is a spacious shaker‑style open‑plan kitchen/diner with high‑spec integrated appliances, ideal for family meals and entertaining. The generous lounge, complete with a log burner, offers flexible space for relaxing or a home office.
Set within a gated quarter‑acre plot, the landscaped gardens are a standout feature. Multiple patios, an outdoor kitchen area and wide views over neighbouring fields create a strong outdoor lifestyle offer for families who love to entertain or let children roam. Practical extras include a large gated driveway providing copious off‑street parking and a substantial outbuilding for storage or a workshop.
Practical considerations are clear: the property relies on oil-fired heating (boiler and radiators) and has double glazing installed before 2002; the original sandstone walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs and prompt further insulation work. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average. Council tax is described as expensive and local recorded crime is above average.
Overall, this four‑bedroom, two‑bathroom cottage of about 1,454 sqft will suit families seeking a characterful country home with modern interiors and strong outdoor space. It offers immediate move‑in condition for many rooms, with further potential to improve energy efficiency and connectivity to match long‑term family needs.
