Watch our virtual tour..................Nestled within the heart of Chestfield village in a charming and picturesque countryside setting overlooking a large private Green, Lavender Cottage offers the best of both worlds; a peaceful location with a desirable and vibrant coastal lifestyle almost on the doorstep.
A generous array of amenities are situated within minutes, including favoured Tankerton beach with its promenade lined with colourful beach huts.
Lavender Cottage, a cherished home since 1987, has been sympathetically extended and enhanced by the current owners to create a delightful four bedroom home with exposed timbers and brickwork.
Well maintained throughout and benefitting from a new roof and new windows, both fitted in 2016, the attractive accommodation comprises lounge with bay window to the front, separate dining room, country style kitchen, inner vestibule with access to the cloakroom and a personal door to the integral garage. Upstairs are four good size bedrooms, the principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room and the fourth currently used as a home office, a modern white bathroom completes the interior.
The finishing touches to this appealing home are a pleasant rear garden with established planting, integral garage with the potential to increase the living accommodation if desired (subject to necessary consents) and a block paved driveway.
All in all a fabulous opportunity to acquire a home in a serene and scenic setting away from the hustle and bustle, yet with the convenience of amenities nearby.
