Coes Cottages, Shottenden, Canterbury, CT4

A delightful cottage in the most idyllic setting, if you are looking for an escape to the country, this property is one to view.

A three bedroom property with stunning views, set in its own grounds on a substantial plot.

The property built in 1783 has been sympathetically extended by the current owners, but it is believed there is more scope to extend further. There is plenty of character with original features throughout such as the decorative fireplaces in the bedrooms, but the property has been modernised to provide comfortable accommodation.

The living area is cosy with a log burning stove and tiled hearth, storage heating and shelving. Leading to a dining area with feature brickwork and storage heater.

In the kitchen there are white wooden cupboards, an LPG gas hob with electric oven and grill, tiled flooring with underfloor electric heating and plenty of light flooding through the French doors and windows.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The main bedroom has fitted cupboards and there is a family bathroom.

Outside there is a large patio seating area, plenty of mature shrubs and a vegetable plot, in all just under a third of an acre. There is ample parking and a separate workshop

The property is situated on the outskirts of the picturesque hamlet of Shottenden, which is within the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village of Chilham is just over a mile away with its mainline station, well stocked farm shop, village post office, doctors surgery, primary school and pubs.

Ashford town is about 10 miles away, with the high speed rail to London St Pancras (39 minutes) and access to the M20 road network for London and the coastal areas. 8 miles away is the market town of Faversham and the City of Canterbury is just under 10 miles, but before that is easy access for the M2 motorway, high speed rail links to London and a range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities.
