This well-presented one-bedroom cottage in East Farleigh offers compact, characterful living in a village setting with Maidstone close by. The open-plan ground floor combines kitchen and living space for modern convenience, plus a useful downstairs cloakroom and an en-suite shower to the bedroom. The property is chain-free and freehold, making it straightforward to buy.
Practical strengths include south-facing front aspects and pleasant views, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and double glazing already installed (pre-2002). The Energy Performance Certificate is currently C (76) with stated potential to reach A (98) after improvements, indicating scope to increase efficiency and value. Mobile signal is excellent and there is no flood risk.
Buyers should note the cottage is small (about 480 sq ft) with a very small plot and solid brick walls that are assumed to have no insulation. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and the double glazing was installed before 2002 so further upgrades may be needed to maximise thermal performance. Overall this is a compact, characterful home suited to a buyer seeking low-maintenance village living or an investor looking for a straightforward, chain-free purchase.
