5 bedroom cottage for sale

FOR IMPROVEMENT AND REFURBISHMENTThis unspoilt five bedroom cottage exudes warmth, character and history, and can only be described as a rare gem, the like of which hardly ever comes on to the open market. Owned by the same family since 1914, it was for the most part their business, the village general store, and family home. Although the interior remains largely unchanged, it is clear that with sympathetic modernisation, this spacious, flexible, three storey cottage could be a very special home indeed.With its charming exterior, pretty cottage garden and wonderful views over the village green and church, it has the feel of a slower paced by-gone era. But never fear, the village amenities are all within a short walk, and the historic towns of Cranbrook and Tenterden are only 3.5 and 5 miles away in different directions for those who need to still feel connected to the 21st Century. This property also benefits from a large workshop, outside WC, store room and two storey barn, the upper floor of which is truly remarkable and offers huge potential, subject of course to any necessary permissions. The cottage also comes within the much sought after Cranbrook School Catchment Area.Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate all that this fascinating period cottage has to offer.
