2 bed terraced house for sale

Grange Road, St. Michaels TN30

This deceptively spacious two double bedroom period property has a wonderfully homely feel and offers immaculately presented, welcoming accommodation throughout.

A great deal of thought has been given not only to creating a stylish blend of modern living and period charm, but also to the layout and spatial design, resulting in a home that is both beautiful and highly practical. The property also boasts a private, landscaped, and particularly interesting south-facing courtyard garden, where a versatile studio space could be used for a variety of purposes, subject to any necessary consents. At the front, a generous driveway provides off-street parking for up to three vehicles.

Just a few steps from the centre of the village and its amenities, and only a mile from the historic Cinque Port town of Tenterden, this home is ideal for anyone seeking a characterful cottage in the heart of a vibrant village, with everything on the doorstep, including good schools and transport links. Viewing is highly recommended.

Location

Situation: This property enjoys a convenient and popular setting in the centre of St Michael's, with its range of local amenities including local convenience store, hardware shop, garage, hairdressers, post office, take-aways, pub, farm shop, ancient Church, and well regarded primary and secondary schools. There are also many rural walks to be found in the nearby countryside and woodland. St Michael's is served by several bus routes to the surrounding towns and villages. Tenterden High Street is only a short distance away and offers a more comprehensive range of shopping, leisure and health facilities. Headcorn Station offers trains to London taking about an hour and Ashford International has the high-speed service to St Pancras.

Accommodation

On entering this lovely home, you are immediately struck by its character and warmth, enhanced by engineered oak flooring that runs throughout the ground floor, with underfloor heating in the main living spaces.

Just inside the front door is a useful area for hanging coats and storing shoes and bags. This leads into a charming, relaxing sitting room where a wood burner forms an inviting focal point. The bay window to the front has been transformed into a cosy reading nook, while wood panelling and exposed brickwork add a touch of heritage charm. Every inch of space has been cleverly considered, including open storage and a built-in cupboard beneath the bespoke staircase.

Accommodation Contd.

Beyond the sitting room lies the delightful kitchen/breakfast room, thoughtfully designed to create a rustic yet contemporary space for cooking and dining. Modern shaker-style units with woodblock worktops sit beautifully alongside character features that add texture and warmth. A second wood burner, flanked by period built-in cupboards, keeps this room snug in the colder months, and a handsome wall-hung pine dresser top provides additional storage. The kitchen is also well equipped with two built-in Bosch ovens, an induction hob, an inset one-and-a-half bowl sink and space for a dishwasher.

Accommodation Contd.

To the rear of the house, a practical utility room offers space for an upright fridge/freezer, washing machine, dryer and freestanding storage. French doors open onto the lovely courtyard garden beyond. An internal door leads to a versatile bonus room, currently arranged as a snug/guest bedroom, but equally suitable as a studio, home office, play or gaming room, or hobby space.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts a beautifully presented main bedroom with cleverly integrated over-stairs storage, a generous second bedroom, and a luxurious, traditionally styled bathroom featuring a separate shower and a freestanding bath.

Outside

The cottage sits in an elevated position, with a driveway to the front providing parking for up to three vehicles. To the rear, a beautiful enclosed garden offers a hidden sanctuary that perfectly complements the character of the house. Directly behind the property, a south-facing patio provides an ideal spot for summer relaxation. An archway then leads through to a second garden area, where the detached studio is located. This would make an excellent work from home space or a peaceful retreat for a budding artist or writer. An access gate is positioned at the back of the garden.
