#TheGardenOfEngland

A beautifully presented 4 bedroom detached family house with wonderful open plan kitchen/dining/sun room, home study, generous sitting room, utility, 4 bedrooms, 2 bath/shower rooms and pretty garden with summer house. Plenty of off road parking and easy walking to the village amenities with some lovely countryside walks too.

Easy access to Appledore train station with link to Ashford International and fast train to London St Pancras.


Lilac Cottage is located in the main high street of Appledore village. Appledore village is a small and pretty village situated between Tenterden and New Romney with medieval houses and a 14th century church St Peter and St Paul. The village has a shop and Post Office, one pub, a tearoom, an antique shop (and one beside Appledore station). The railway station lies just over a mile away with connection to Ashford International station and fast train to London St Pancras taking only 37 minutes.

Lilac Cottage
Lilac Cottage was traditionally built by the current owners in 2007 to an exact design and high specification, then reconfigured in recent years to create a superb open plan kitchen/dining/sun room to accommodate their family needs. The property has plenty of natural light throughout and has been very well maintained with a country house theme including feature wallpapers and character oak beams. There’s plenty of storage space too with built in storage cupboards and wardrobes.
To the front there is an attractive oak framed porch. On the ground floor there is an entrance hall with stairs to the first floor, understairs storage cupboard, cloakroom, utility room, home study and spacious sitting room with bay window and feature fireplace with electric effect wood burning stove. Beyond here is the generous open plan kitchen/breakfast room with a range of fitted wall and base units with granite worksurfaces, breakfast island with built in plate rack, Rangemaster oven and integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer. This opens into the dining room and flows into the sun room making this a great entertaining space. Upstairs there are 4 bedrooms, 3 with built in wardrobes and the master bedroom with a luxury ensuite shower room. There is also a separate family bathroom with bath and shower over, w/c and wash basin.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all this property has to offer.
