Summary - ROSE COTTAGE 1 FORGE LANE BOXLEY MAIDSTONE ME14 3DT
2 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Charming village cottage with large private garden and garage, ideal for families.
No forward chain, ready for immediate move or refurbishment
Rose Cottage is a charming period end-terrace with exposed beams, set in a quiet private lane in Boxley village. The house offers two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and two bedrooms across well-zoned multi-level accommodation, plus a generous, private garden and detached garage.
This elevated, rural-adjacent location sits close to the North Downs and is only a short drive from Maidstone and major motorway links, making it practical for commuting while retaining countryside character. The property is offered with no forward chain and presents immediate occupation or straightforward refurbishment potential to modernise kitchen and bathroom fittings.
There is scope to create a third bedroom on the upper level, subject to planning and building regulations (STPP). Buyers should note the cottage is of pre-1900 construction with solid brick walls and likely limited insulation — energy improvements may be needed. The local recorded crime level is higher than average for the area and should be considered alongside the otherwise peaceful setting.
Overall this is an attractive family-oriented cottage for those who value character, outdoor space and proximity to strong local schools, with clear potential to add value through sensible updating and thermal upgrades.
