Nestled in the serene village of Shorne, this charming double-fronted period cottage boasts a history spanning approximately 300 years. This spacious property, with around 1,768 sq ft (164.3 sq m) of living space, presents a blend of character and ample opportunities for investment and renovation. While the home has been tastefully updated to marry modern comforts with its traditional charm, there remains potential for further enhancements to personalize or modernize the space.
Upon entering, you are greeted by a welcoming porch that leads to a shaker-style kitchen outfitted with wooden worktops and integrated appliances. The layout seamlessly transitions into a dining area ideal for both daily life and entertaining guests. The separate living room is bright and inviting, featuring dual-aspect windows and a cozy log-burning stove that adds warmth and character. The convenience of a ground floor WC and utility room adjacent to the garage further enhances practicality.
The upper level houses three generously sized bedrooms, including two inviting doubles, alongside a family bathroom equipped with a contemporary walk-in shower.
Set on an expansive plot of approximately half an acre split across two titles, the substantial North-East facing garden presents excellent potential for development (subject to relevant permissions), including landscaping or even additional structures without compromising privacy. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the large patio area complemented by sprawling lawns and scenic views across local orchards.
With ample parking provided by a large driveway and garage space, this property facilitates easy access to local amenities while retaining its tranquil rural charm. Ideally located near transport links such as Ebbsfleet International Station for convenient travel into London and close proximity to Bluewater Shopping Centre for shopping and leisure options, this cottage represents not just a home but an opportunity for future enhancements in an enviable setting.
