Set on a very large plot in the Kent countryside, Ridgeview Cottage is a single‑storey home that prioritises views, light and practical living. The rear of the bungalow is laid out to take full advantage of uninterrupted Downs panoramas — full‑height dining windows, a bright lounge with a log burner and a solid‑roof conservatory for year‑round use. Two bedrooms have en suites, and a fourth room is used as a study, giving flexible space for family life or working from home.
Outdoor facilities are a clear strength: a wide patio for entertaining, secure electric gates, abundant parking and a double garage. A substantial outbuilding (29' x 10'11") provides an obvious home office, gym or kids’ den without altering the main house. The location is rural but connected — roughly nine minutes’ drive to Charing and Lenham stations for direct London services.
Practical considerations are straightforward and should be factored into any offer. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the EPC is rated E, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas‑heated homes. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which could affect home working unless upgraded. The property has double glazing installed before 2002 and is of timber‑frame construction (assumed), so prospective buyers may want professional surveys to confirm condition and insulation performance.
This bungalow suits buyers seeking a calm countryside lifestyle with easy access to transport links — families, downsizers or those wanting single‑level living with flexible ancillary space. The combination of large outdoor space, strong views and ready‑to‑use outbuilding presents clear lifestyle and workable live‑work advantages, balanced by the need to address energy efficiency and broadband if these are priorities.
