Description
This four-bedroom detached cottage near Shoreham combines two former cottages with a later two-storey extension. Its accommodation includes a large sitting room with a separate snug, a study, conservatory and kitchen/dining room, as well as an en-suite bathroom and a family bathroom. Period details include exposed beams, brickwork and original inglenook fireplaces. The kitchen is described as requiring modernisation, and the wider property offers scope for improvement while retaining its existing character and flexible room arrangement.
Outside, the property has a mature wraparound garden with lawn, patio and established planting, along with gated driveway parking and three garages. The rural setting is close to Shoreham village, local amenities, countryside walks and rail connections, with Sevenoaks and neighbouring villages also within reach.

81out of 100
Grade AStrong opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £875,000, this characterful four-bedroom cottage is priced at about £285 per sq ft, well below the local average of £510 — a strong opportunity to acquire a substantial home at a notable discount to local £/sq-ft levels. Its generous reception spaces, exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces give it plenty of character, while the established wraparound garden, driveway and three garages add to its appeal.
The house appears maintained and usable, with a medium-scale programme to modernise the dated kitchen and bathrooms and refresh older carpets and finishes in several rooms. That gives buyers scope to bring the interiors up to date while retaining the period features; the available views show no obvious major structural or roof failure.
Key opportunities
- Modernise the dated kitchen and photographed bathrooms, then refresh older carpets and finishes across several rooms.
- Make the most of the large sitting room’s exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces as distinctive features in an updated interior.
- Enjoy the established wraparound garden, patio, gated driveway and three garages, with Shoreham village and countryside walks nearby.
