Description

A Tasteful Cottage Among Gold Medal Gardens

Nestled within the grounds of a Grade I listed ancient monument, this beautifully finished cottage offers a refined countryside escape in the heart of the Weald of Kent.

Converted from 19th-century farm buildings, the residence sits within formal gardens designed by a Chelsea Flower Show Gold medal winner. The surrounding countryside view unfolds across rolling Kentish fields and historic estates, creating a serene backdrop that changes beautifully with each season.

The interior reveals a tasteful open plan living space where a woodburning stove anchors the sitting area. The kitchen is well-appointed with an oven, hob, fridge, dishwasher, and washing machine. Two ground-floor bedrooms include a double sleigh bed room and a bunk bed room, served by a walk-in shower room. Every modern convenience has been considered, from central heating to excellent WiFi capable of streaming and conferencing.

Beyond the cottage, the estate offers secure driveway parking accessed through electric gates, enclosed lawn areas, and a small terrace for enjoying the countryside view. The Swan on the Green, a thriving community-owned pub, lies a short walk away.

With the Greensand Way passing directly behind, ramblers and cyclists can explore miles of ancient routes and country lanes. Tennis courts are available for daytime use just metres from the door.

This is a place of refined comfort and historic character, ideally positioned for discovering Kent (only a 25min train ride to London) and Sussex, or a swift train journey into London.
