This Grade II listed two-bedroom terraced cottage combines Georgian charm with contemporary fittings in the medieval heart of Sandwich. The house offers two reception rooms, a modern kitchen/breakfast room and a private walled rear garden laid to lawn with a decked area — ideal for low-maintenance outdoor living.
Period features include exposed beams, fireplaces with log-burning stoves and original character throughout, while practical upgrades such as gas central heating and secondary glazing improve comfort and efficiency. The first floor has two double bedrooms with built-in cupboards and a four-piece family bathroom.
Buyers should note the listed status — any alterations will be subject to restrictions and may require consent, which could complicate renovation plans. The plot is small and interior rooms are generally compact with standard/low ceiling heights in places, so the layout will suit those seeking character rather than large, open-plan living.
Situated centrally, the house is close to shops, restaurants, schools (including Sir Roger Manwood’s) and the mainline station with high-speed links to London. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and the area is very affluent, though local crime levels are reported as high. Overall this property will appeal to buyers wanting a historic, well-presented cottage in a sought-after town centre, especially those looking to downsize or secure a low-upkeep town pied-à-terre.
