Full Description: A substantial four bedroom double-fronted cottage situated in the heart of the popular village of Chartham. This wonderful home has an abundance of period features, is deceptively spacious having been extended and now measures in excess of 1500 sq ft offering a vast amount of accommodation over both floors. Upon entry, there is instantly a warm and welcoming atmosphere; the cosy lounge benefits from a wood burning stove with exposed chimney breast and a second reception room - within part of the original building - is currently used as a snug with sash windows and views to the front. The present owners have replaced the staircase with both oak stairs and wrought iron spindles, a stunning feature and within keeping of the property. To the ground floor there is also a useful downstairs cloakroom. The real heart of the home is the beautiful open plan kitchen/dining room with copious amounts of light filling the entire space. There is an array of solid timber fitted cupboards with granite work surfaces, a built-in dresser with wine storage, Smeg appliances including a five ring dual burner hob and oven, built in microwave oven and dishwasher. A central island with additional cupboard space divides the kitchen and dining areas and lovely bi-fold doors stretch across the rear of the room providing an outlook towards the garden. Rising to the first floor, a generous landing with large Velux skylights and extensive cupboard space gives access to four good size bedrooms, the master bedroom has the advantage of a ensuite shower room. The family bathroom has a white fitted suite with both bath and overhead shower. Exposed floorboards flow throughout, all within keeping of this period cottage. Outside, the pretty garden is mainly laid to lawn and has a useful shed along with a variety of mature trees, plants and shrubs for all-year-round interest. A pathway leads to rear gated access with off-road parking for two cars. Chartham is a quiet residential location with several local shops and village pubs.
