The front door opens into a reception hall with herringbone wooden flooring which continues to the centre of the house. From here, a staircase rises to the first floor and French doors open to the south-facing rear terrace; there is also a shower/cloakroom.
The reception rooms stretch across the front of the house. An elegant drawing room is arranged around a fireplace and a bay window seat has a lovely outlook over the garden. A dining room with a fireplace and a spacious study are set either side of the entrance hall.
To the rear of the house are the kitchen and family room with an interconnecting hatch. Herringbone parquet flooring is found in many of the reception rooms. A downstairs bathroom and utility sit adjacent to a good-sized sitting/hobby room which can be accessed via a rear porch to provide a self-contained annexe. Equally the rooms can be used within the main house.
The double aspect principal bedroom occupies the east end of the house, and three further well-proportioned, light-filled bedrooms enjoy pretty views of the garden and village green. There is a family bathroom.
Tanthorn Cottage sits in pretty, mature gardens mainly bordered by wonderful brick and flint walls. Established flower beds and clipped shrubs provide structure to the garden which provides a charming backdrop to the house. Sheltered terraces and other points throughout the garden provide lovely places in which to sit and enjoy.
There is a large brick building to the west end of the plot which currently provides storage and garaging. The oldest part of this pretty building is thought to have been the village schoolhouse. It offers great potential subject to planning.
The property is situated in a desirable location opposite the village green in the historic village of Chartham on the Great Stour River, with its range of amenities including shops, a primary school, doctor’s surgery and public house. The railway station, with frequent services to London and Ashford International, is close by making this an ideal location for the commuter.
Canterbury, Ashford and Faversham all offer a range of widely regarded shops, leisure and recreational facilities, and the immediate area offers a good selection of schooling in both state and private sectors. The M2/A2 is accessed to the north. The area has good access to the Continent.
