Description

Bluebell Estates are delighted to offer this unique 18th Century detached property a short walk from the river Medway in the semi-rural village of West Farleigh in Kent. The character filled accommodation comprises entrance porch, beamed sitting room with log burning stove, spacious dining room with impressive Inglenook fireplace, a country style kitchen-breakfast room which opens to a light filled conservatory, utility room and bathroom with freestanding slipper bath all on ground floor. From the winding staircase there are 3 bedrooms off the first floor landing, one of which enjoys views to the other side of the Medway Valley. There is a small garden area to the front, side and rear of the property and a spacious courtyard garden to the other side. We feel that this interesting character property needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated and with the added bonus of a covered driveway for 1 car we are sure it will attract significant interest so would urge interested parties to view early to avoid disappointment.
