Tiffenden Cottage is a spacious four-bedroom Victorian detached home set on a very large plot in semi-rural High Halden. The property combines character features with a flexible layout — a free-flowing lounge/diner, separate studio, and an extensive garden room — ideal for family living, home-working or hobbies. The established gardens step gently into attached private woodland (additional woodland available to purchase separately).
Bedroom 1 benefits from an en-suite shower room and there is a family bathroom plus a separate cloakroom, giving practical accommodation for children or guests. The plot includes a garage and off-road parking, and the house sits in a peaceful hamlet setting with excellent mobile signal and no flood risk. Local primary and secondary schools have Good Ofsted ratings, supporting family life.
Buyers should note several important practical points: the house is an older solid brick build (pre-1900) and is assumed to have no wall insulation; heating is by an oil-fired boiler and the property is on a private fuel supply. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, and council tax is described as expensive. These factors may mean investment in insulation, heating update or broadband solutions will be required.
Overall this is a character-filled family home on a substantial plot with scope for sensitive updating and improvement. It suits buyers seeking countryside living with period charm, and those prepared to budget for modernisation to improve efficiency and connectivity.
