An attractively presented Grade II listed detached cottage in the heart of Brenchley village, offered chain-free and set behind High Street properties for added privacy. The house offers three bedrooms (plus a ground-floor study/bedroom four), three reception rooms and a modern open-plan kitchen-dining area with exposed beams and patio doors to the garden. The main bedroom benefits from far-reaching Kent countryside views from a Juliet balcony; principal reception has a wood stove and character features throughout.
Outside there is courtyard parking to the rear, a detached garage and a south-facing, secluded garden with patio, lawn and mature planting — a rare private plot in the village. The overall footprint is generous at about 1,261 sq ft across multiple storeys, making this suitable for family living, home working, or buyers wanting a historic home with modernised living spaces.
Buyers should note the property’s Grade II listed status: external and many internal alterations will be restricted and may require listed-building consent, which can make extensions or major changes more difficult and costly. Energy performance is poor (EPC F) and council tax is band F, so running costs are likely above average. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and some buyers may wish to investigate connectivity options.
This house will suit purchasers who value period character and village living, and who are comfortable with the maintenance obligations and consent process that come with listed ownership. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, garden aspect and countryside views firsthand.
