House For Sale £315,000
Bridge

A charming Grade II Listed period cottage with parking and pretty enclosed garden, being well positioned within the desirable village of Bridge. No Chain.

Situation
This desirable property sits close to the heart of the village and is convenient for all the local shops and amenities; these include a mini market, health centre, pharmacy, dentist, hairdressers, tea rooms, village school and a selection of public house/restaurants, including the Michelin Star Bridge Arms and the highly rated Pig Hotel and Restaurant. The village of Bridge lies just to the southeast of the Cathedral City of Canterbury, which is within a few miles and offers a wider range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, together with the highspeed main line train services to London St Pancras. There are excellent road links to the A2/M2, the port of Dover, Folkestone Euro Tunnel terminal and the Eurostar at Ashford International Station.

The Property
This is a wonderful period cottage, well positioned on a corner plot in an attractive quadrant, set around central landscaped gardens. The quadrant itself is thought to date back to around 1836, and was originally the workhouse, it is now, quite rightly, Grade II Listed. From the outside the accommodation on offer is not immediately evident until you step inside, only then you can appreciate the high ceilings and many windows allowing a good degree of natural light to flood through, indeed most of the main rooms are double aspect! The layout of this property is rather well thought out, with a central hallway leading to a good size sitting/dining room to the left, while, to the right is a fitted kitchen with ample units, work surfaces and space for a variety of white goods. The staircase beckons to two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom. The master bedroom has a door that opens out onto the balcony with a wrought iron staircase leading to the gardens at the front.
