Set on the edge of Rolvenden, this former lodge occupies a peaceful semi-rural plot with direct views across adjoining farmland. The extended layout provides generous living space on two floors, including a triple-aspect open-plan kitchen/dining/living room with a wood-burning stove — ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. A ground-floor bedroom with ensuite and an adjoining conservatory add flexibility for multigenerational use or a home office.
Externally the plot is a strong asset: large lawns, mature planting, a paved entertaining terrace, wide gravel driveway for several cars and a substantial detached garage/workshop. The property dates from the early 20th century and retains period character such as exposed beams and an exposed brick fireplace while offering modern fitted kitchen appliances.
Practical points to note are the oil-fired boiler and oil fuel supply (not on a communal system), an EPC rating of D and Council Tax band E. Broadband speeds are very slow in this location and mobile signal is only average, which could affect remote working. An internal inspection is recommended to assess finish levels and any maintenance needs associated with an older, character property.
