A charming Victorian mid-terraced cottage set in the hamlet of Wrotham Heath, offered freehold and presented in good order. The house provides two bedrooms, a spacious open-plan sitting/dining room and a fitted shaker-style kitchen, arranged over approximately 647 sq ft. A standout practical benefit is the private driveway at the rear with space for three cars — rare for a terrace. The southerly-facing rear garden of about 40ft and a paved patio deliver bright, outdoor space for relaxation or family use.
The property is well-served for commuters: Borough Green station (services to London from about 37 minutes) is approximately 1.8 miles away, and road links to the M26 and M20 are close. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators and the windows are double glazed, offering everyday comfort. Local amenities in Wrotham Heath include restaurants, a pub and leisure facilities, with larger shopping and services in nearby Borough Green and Sevenoaks.
Notable practical considerations: the house is of solid brick construction typical of pre-1900 build and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, which can mean higher heating costs and potential scope for upgrading. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow — important for home working or heavy internet users. Room sizes are modest and the plot is small, so buyers seeking large, modern living spaces may find the layout limiting. Buyers should satisfy themselves on services, insulation, and any works by survey.
This cottage will suit first-time buyers, couples or downsizers who prioritise character, outdoor space and parking over large rooms and ultra-fast broadband. It also offers straightforward scope for incremental improvements (insulation, heating efficiency, connectivity) to increase comfort and value.
