This cosy cottage is believed to have been built in the 19th Century. The current owner purchased the property when it was run down and hadn't been lived in for a couple of years. He set about giving the house a total renovation.
In his quest to update the property to his taste, and incorporating his interest in antiques, he set about improving the accommodation and there are many areas of interest and character throughout the property which have added flair, from the parquet flooring that was reclaimed from an old school, the stained glass window from Aberdeen, to the York Stone patio area from a demolished railway station in Derbyshire.
The property has three bedrooms, however one is currently a walk through library, but with an addition of a stud wall, it could be returned to a private third bedroom.
The first two bedrooms are double and the third area is single in size.
There is a light and spacious country style kitchen with stone flooring, ready for the benefit of an update. The living area has double aspect windows with an unusual fire place surround, there is plenty of space for a dining table and chairs.
The beautiful garden is approximately a 1/3rd of an acre and is completely private. There is a beautiful patio area which would make a lovely private and sheltered place for a barbeque and seating area. There is also a garden shed.
Set within the garden is the original lime kiln and there is evidence of the chalk material in the grounds. The garden has many mature trees which harbour many birds. There are also many shaded areas to follow the sun and it is waiting for a keen gardener to take it in hand!
The property can be found along a private driveway with no signage; it really is hard to find.
The railway is located just the other side of the boundary and is the local Canterbury to Ashford line.
Chartham Hatch is a lovely village about 4 miles west of Canterbury and the mainline station is walking distance away with a regular service to both Ashford and Canterbury. Ashford International station to St Pancras is only 39 minutes. The property is conveniently located for both Canterbury and Ashford and there are excellent road connections with the A2/M2 to London and the coast. Canterbury has a vast array of shops, restaurants and leisure activities.
