Semi-detached house for sale in Maidstone ME14, 2 Bedroom

This period property retains much of its original charm with some exposed timber beams, fireplaces and wood panelling. Although it is presented in liveable condition, some areas could benefit from updating and there is plenty of potential for new owners to add their own stamp.

The hall leads into the sitting room with a good view, and a wood-burning stove. Adjacent is a light-filled dining room with painted wood-panelling. The kitchen, which was refitted in 2016 is l-shaped with a gas hob and electric oven. There is a gas fired boiler in the fireplace, and a door to the rear courtyard. Accessed from the kitchen is the utility room/ larder.

Accessed by stairs from the kitchen is the first floor. Bedroom one is of very generous proportions at nearly 18 feet long and features a decorative original wrought iron fireplace. Bedroom 2 is also of a good size. Both bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom with separate toilet. There is a large airing cupboard with hot water tank off the bathroom.

The property is ideally situated being both close to day-to-day amenities, yet adjoining beautiful countryside beneath the North Downs. Maidstone offers a wide range of shopping, dining and leisure options. Central London can be reached in just over an hour by train from the mainline station.

The cottage is reached by a gate in a picket fence, and path. The front garden is lawned and enhances the setting. To the side is a driveway for parking.

To the immediate rear of the house is a small enclosed courtyard. A footpath runs behind the cottages and on the other side is a large enclosed garden. This is mainly lawned and with established boundaries creating privacy. There is a timber shed.
