No Chain

A detached single-storey 3 bedroom timber framed woodland lodge requiring complete refurbishment and/or replacement, set in an idyllic established garden with mature trees, a double garage and off road parking.

In all about 0.5 acres with potential to purchase a further 3 acres of woodland for £30,000.




The property is located in a serene setting of woods and farmland offering a tranquil and peaceful retreat. Harbourne Lane is a quiet country lane between St Michaels and High Halden. Both villages offer great facilities including shops, schools and pubs, with wider facilities in the historic town of Tenterden, known for it’s picturesque high street and shopping facilities. Stations at Headcorn and Ashford International offer access to London with the fast train from Ashford International to St Pancras taking just 37 minutes.

West Warden
This is a unique opportunity to refurbish or redevelop the existing timber framed flat roofed bungalow with cedar cladding and metal framed crittal windows (replacement subject to the necessary planning permissions). The property measures 1082 sqft (100.5 sq m) and sits in it’s own south facing gardens of about 0.52 acres. Being timber framed and in its current condition, it is unlikely that a mortgage lender will provide lending for this property. We are informed by our seller that the property was built in the early 1960’s/1970’s by a builder who had worked for Colt (a renowned timber framed house building company from the local village of Bethersden).
Currently the accommodation consists of: entrance hall, cloakroom, utility room, kitchen, bathroom, sitting/dining room with ragstone fireplace and wood burning stove, 3 bedrooms (2 doubles and 1 single). The utility room has previously been used as a 4th bedroom as it has an interconnecting doorway from bedroom 3.

Outside
Gardens

The property is accessed via a shared driveway leading to a private unmade drive with plenty of parking for numerous cars in front of the detached timber framed double garage. There is potential to create a separate driveway (subject to the necessary permissions).
The established south facing gardens are a real feature and surround the property on all sides, extending to approximately 0.52 acres. The gardens are mostly laid to lawn and include a number of mature trees including oak trees and extends down to a small stream running west to east. To the rear, the garden adjoins and overlooks the neighbouring field with woodland beyond. This really is a wonderful quiet retreat, surrounded by nature.

Woodland – Approximately 3 acres
There is the potential to purchase a further 3 acres of woodland located next to the neighbouring property for £30,000. Plans are available from Hobbs Parker Tenterden office.
