House For Sale £695,000
A Victorian four bedroom detached cottage found in Lenham Heath. Originally two smaller cottages they have been now combined to create one larger property.
Although requiring some updating and modernisation this timber framed cottage offers a great opportunity for a purchaser to put their own mark on the property.
Arranged over three floors there are three reception rooms plus the reception hall and kitchen/breakfast room downstairs. There is also a utility and shower room. On the first floor there are three of the bedrooms plus the bathroom with the fourth bedroom which is currently used as a studio on the second floor.
The cottage sits on a plot of 0.8 of an acre with both a large side and rear garden. Accessed from the driveway to one side of the cottage is the double garage and workshop.
Seldom does a property with so much to offer become available, so an early viewing comes most recommended.
Lenham Heath is a small village found between the larger villages of Lenham and Charing. Both of these villages have a wide range of amenities to include both schools and railway stations. There is also good access to the M20 approximately six miles away.
