Property description
Page & Co are pleased to present this enchanting Grade II listed cottage in the picturesque village of Petham and built in the early 1560`s
The front door opens into a beautifully proportioned sitting room, a wonderfully atmospheric space that perfectly captures the character of the cottage. Rich exposed beams stretch overhead, while an impressive brick fireplace with inset wood-burning stove creates a warm and inviting focal point. Exposed brickwork, bespoke shelving and period detailing add further charm and authenticity, making this a truly cosy room in which to relax and unwind. The generous proportions allow ample space for comfortable seating, ideal for evenings beside the fire or entertaining family and friends.
Beyond the sitting room lies a bright and welcoming kitchen/dining room, thoughtfully designed to complement the age and style of the property while offering modern practicality. Warm wooden flooring and soft neutral tones enhance the light-filled feel of the space, while the layout comfortably accommodates a dining table for everyday meals and relaxed gatherings. French doors open directly onto the patio and cottage garden beyond, allowing the outside in and creating a seamless connection between the home and its tranquil surroundings.
Stairs rise from the sitting room to the first floor where you will find a beautifully appointed bathroom and the main bedroom. The bathroom is a particularly charming space with exposed beams and timber detailing sitting alongside a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower. A sweet cottage-style window frames delightful views across the garden enhancing its calm and peaceful atmosphere.
The main bedroom is a generous and characterful double room, with exposed beams and original floorboards creating a warm and restful feel. There is plenty of space for wardrobes and a built-in cupboard provides some useful hanging space.
From the landing, a further staircase rises to a versatile loft room. Tucked beneath the eaves and framed by attractive exposed timbers, it`s a charming space which could serve equally well as a second double bedroom, guest room or a peaceful home office or studio.
Outside, the cottage enjoys a wonderfully secluded and enchanting rear garden, perfectly complementing the peaceful character of the home. Immediately adjoining the property is a paved terrace - creating a wonderful spot for outdoor dining and morning coffee.
Beyond the terrace, the garden unfolds into a beautifully natural cottage garden, rich with mature planting, flowering shrubs and established trees that provide colour, texture and privacy throughout the seasons. Meandering gravel pathways lead through the greenery to secluded seating areas, inviting quiet moments to relax and enjoy the surrounding birdsong and countryside atmosphere. At the far end of the garden, a useful timber shed provides additional storage.
Parking is available on the street just in front of the cottage.
