House For Sale £375,000
Description
Situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty (aonb) in a central village location with a thriving village community is this beautiful and well presented Grade II listed Arts and Crafts family home. The property was built circa 1890, in the manor of Voysey, it retains many of its original features, with stripped doors, tall ceilings, and casement windows.
The property is not overlooked, from the front or rear, even from next door neighbours. [Only window from next door neighbours is the bathroom window!] Quite a good privacy feature! There are bespoke windows and doors in the kitchen and breakfast room/study. There is a newly fitted kitchen with breakfast room and bathroom, all with underfloor heating.
The landscape garden has a large shed and summerhouse which is used as an art studio and extra entertaining space.
Another interesting fact is that Orchard Cottages has its own Wikipedia page as a subject of architectural interest.
This fabulous home also has an added benefit of having its own mainline station (less than two minutes' walk from the cottage) with direct links to London Bridge (within 58 minutes).
There are also a number of renowned scenic walks from the doorstep to some of the best pubs in Kent and East Sussex [people travel from far and wide to do the walks round here!] .
The attractive park and pavilion behind the property is co-operatively owned by the village and for exclusive use of villagers to enjoy, it hosts a number of social events including coffee mornings, picnics, village fetes and parties.
But do not just take my word for it this is what the owners have said. "There's stunning scenery all around us and there are amazing walks to some of the best pubs in Kent and East Sussex. There's also a local 9 hole golf course. Summer evening walks provide a great opportunity to watch wildlife from barn owls and kingfishers to badgers and egrets all at the same as being less than an hour with a regular train service to London Bridge. There are regular village events all year round from a fireworks display to a raft race. Winters are cosy in front of the log burning stove and there are carols by candlelight in the 12th century church. It's very special owning a slice of Arts and Crafts history which we have recently refurbished to include a beautiful bathroom and modern kitchen with underfloor heating. There is also a sympathetically designed Arts and Crafts garden full of scented flowers and topiary to enjoy."
This really is a home not to be missed and its only due to work commitments my clients are now moving so if you would like to come and see for yourself how beautiful the property is and the surroundings, get in touch and I would be delighted to show you around.
