Renovated two-bed cottage with large garden and peaceful countryside views.
Vaulted entrance hall and charming reception space
A charming period farm cottage that has been fully renovated and thoughtfully extended, offering traditional character with contemporary convenience. The vaulted entrance hall and sitting room with open fire create an immediate sense of welcome, while the kitchen/diner with underfloor heating opens directly to a sheltered rear garden — ideal for relaxed, all-season living.
The house provides two double bedrooms and a large bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and walk-in shower (the bathroom was formerly a third bedroom). Much of the original character remains intact: exposed brickwork, timber doors and traditional ironmongery have been retained and celebrated throughout the refurbishment.
Outside, the large plot includes a long driveway with ample off-street parking, colourful cottage-style planting and a secluded rear garden with a covered alfresco area — perfect for summer evenings and entertaining. The setting is peaceful and rural, with countryside footpaths, woodland walks and views over equestrian fields, yet Ashford is only about a 10-minute drive away with a 37-minute high-speed rail link to London.
Practical points to note for buyers: heating is electric, broadband speeds are very slow and there is no mobile signal at the property. Drainage is believed to be a private cesspit. Overall this is a well-presented, characterful cottage suitable for those seeking low-maintenance period living in a tranquil countryside location.
