House For Sale £850,000
Coming to the market for the first time in 35 years, a charming Grade II listed cottage set in a rural location.
Description
Having been loved by the current owners for over 35 years, Barge Cottage is a charming Grade II listed house, originally an Inn, understood to date back to the 18th century. Approaching half an acre and situated within a lovely, rural location this property offers huge potential.
Internal accommodation includes: Three attractive and well proportioned reception rooms all of which enjoy delightful views to the front. A bespoke kitchen/breakfast room with solid wood worktops, bosch washing machine, Miele oven with 4 ring De Dietrich induction hob and Bosch fridge/freezer. To the rear is a hall with a WC. On the ground floor is a spacious bedroom with en suite bathroom, ideal for co-generational living.
Arranged over the first floor are three bedrooms, two of which benefit from bespoke built in wardrobes and wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. A family bathroom with corner bath finishes the first floor accommodation.
The level lawned gardens are most delightful with terraces and a BBQ area. With beautiful willow, apple and olive trees and mature, herbaceous borders this garden is most peaceful and elegant. Alongside the rear of the garden lies a water way which flows to the River Rother which the family have most enjoyed, frequented by ducks and all the nature that this beautiful garden enjoys.
The house is approached via a gate with parking for at least three cars. The double garage sits within the plot and offers great potential, subject to any planning requirements.
Location
Barge Cottage lies about 2.4 miles away from the village of Rolvenden where there is a village shop, post office and public houses. More extensive shopping and leisure facilities can be found in the lovely historic towns of Tenterden (5.5 miles), Rye (8.5 miles) and Ashford (17.2 miles).
Trains run to London Charing Cross and London Bridge from Staplehurst (12.4 miles) and Headcorn (13.6 miles). A high speed train service runs from London St Pancras to Ashford in about 37 minutes.
Educational opportunities exist within the area in both the private and state sector, at all levels.
