A rare Grade II Tudor cottage set in about 3.76 acres of gardens, orchard and paddock with a stable block and tack room. The house retains abundant period character – exposed oak timbers, a large inglenook fireplace and traditional Kent peg tiled roof – and sits in a quiet rural lane with direct access to countryside footpaths.
Practical assets include a driveway with garage/barn, separate vehicle access to stables and fields, a raised deck, orchard and space for horses or small-scale agricultural use. The property’s layout is compact and characterful: two bedrooms, a loft/galleried room and principal living rooms linked by oak beams and country-style kitchen.
Buyers should note the material constraints: Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate repair work. Broadband is very slow and heating relies on an oil/community scheme. There is a single main bathroom and council tax is described as quite expensive. Prospective purchasers must verify planning, services and listed consents before committing.
This home suits an equestrian or countryside family wanting immediate charm, privacy and land, and who accept the maintenance and regulatory responsibilities of an historic listed cottage. With sensitive updating and listed-approved investment, the property has strong lifestyle appeal and equestrian potential.
