This beautifully preserved two bedroom terraced cottage sits within Victory Terrace in the heart of Sutton Valence, a historic village set along the Greensand Ridge. Believed to date back to the late 19th or early 20th century, the property is rich in period character and offers a rare opportunity to purchase a home that has been cherished by the same family for generations. The lifelong connection to both the home and the village is reflected in the warmth and care that radiates throughout.
Inside, the cottage retains an abundance of original features including exposed beams, traditional wood panelled doors, and the striking central fireplace that sits between the living room and dining area. This fireplace remains open and offers exciting potential for a log burner or similar feature, creating a natural focal point that anchors the ground floor. The kitchen and dining area, once two separate rooms, have been opened up to create a more sociable and practical layout while still respecting the heritage of the home.
Upstairs, both bedrooms are well proportioned and will comfortably accommodate double beds, which is a rarity for cottages of this era. Bedroom One benefits from its own dressing area with built in wardrobes, providing excellent storage and a more private, spacious feel. Bedroom Two is equally inviting and offers flexibility for guests, children, or a peaceful home office if preferred. A well kept bathroom with bath and shower over, basin W/C ans boiler cupboard with new boiler completes the first floor.

It offers a peaceful and private setting that complements the cottage beautifully. At the far end sits a versatile garden room with power, making it ideal for a range of uses.

Sutton Valence itself is one of Kent’s most distinctive and desirable villages, set proudly along the Greensand Ridge. This long sandstone formation is known for its elevated position, historic pathways, and far reaching walking routes. The village is steeped in history, with charming period buildings, traditional pubs, and a welcoming community atmosphere that has remained strong for generations. Its position on the ridge gives the village a unique character, with winding lanes, tiered cottages, and a landscape that feels both rural and timeless.
The village offers a range of everyday amenities including local shops, cafes, and well regarded pubs, and is also home to the renowned Sutton Valence School, one of Kent’s most respected independent schools. Sutton Valence Primary School is also close by, making the area particularly appealing for families. Despite its peaceful setting, the village is well connected, with nearby stations at Staplehurst and Headcorn providing direct routes into London, and Maidstone just a short drive away for wider shopping and leisure facilities.
The property is perfectly placed for those who enjoy the outdoors, with scenic countryside walks just moments away. The village pavilion and playing fields sit directly opposite, giving the setting a pleasant open feel and a strong sense of community. Resident permit parking is available, ensuring practicality alongside the charm.
A truly special home, rich in history and character, offering the chance to become part of a village community that has been loved by the same family for decades.
