Mount Cottage is a detached Grade II listed two-bedroom cottage set in a generous private garden in the quiet hamlet of Rolvenden Layne. The house retains strong period character — exposed timbers, an inglenook with a wood-burning stove and vaulted attic room — offering immediate charm and character for those seeking an authentic country home.
The property requires modernization: the accommodation has been in the same ownership for around 30 years and needs renovation throughout, with an EPC rating of G and private drainage in place. Listed status will restrict alterations and can complicate works and consenting, so buyers should budget for specialist contractors and listed-building consents.
Outside there is a driveway, detached single garage and large cottage gardens with fruit trees and a small natural pond, providing excellent potential for gardeners and families who value privacy. Broadband infrastructure supports ultrafast speeds (not currently connected), but mobile phone coverage is limited locally.
This cottage suits a buyer looking for period character and scope to improve rather than a move-in-ready home — ideal for downsizers or purchasers seeking a sympathetic renovation project in an affluent rural setting close to Tenterden and transport links to Ashford.
