Brought to the market by Open House Mid-Kent, a beautifully maintained and presented 3 bedroom tudor cottage in the sought after village of Boughton Monchelsea.
The property, which is grade II listed, was built in 1581 from reclaimed ship timbers. It is bursting with original features, including exposed beams in every room, and must be viewed to appreciate it's full character!
Downstairs is a cosy lounge with a wood burning stove and a beautiful dining room with exposed wooden flooring and an original inglenook fireplace, fitted with a wood burning stove. Leading off the dining room is a modern fitted kitchen with a gas hob and fitted electric oven.
The hallway leads to the downstairs modern bathroom which has a large walk-in shower. A hatch in the bathroom floor provides access to a large storage cellar below.
Upstairs are three generous double bedrooms all of which have feature fireplaces and original exposed beams.
Externally, to the front is a mature courtyard garden which is large enough for private outdoor entertaining. There is access to a storeroom which sits within the main building. The courtyard garden can alternatively be used as a driveway for two cars, but the current owners do not find this necessary as there is plenty of off road parking on the lane directly outside the property.
Boughton Monchelsea is a highly sought after village, on the rural outskirts of Maidstone. The property is situated on a quiet lane, but is only a short walk from the local pub. Boughton Monchelsea has plenty of local facilities, including a Post Office, pub, restaurant and a church. Although the village is semi-rural, the county town of Maidstone is only a short drive way, with two mainline railway stations and easy access to the M20 motorway.
