A home full of character and warmth
Beautifully maintained and sympathetically improved by the current owners, the cottage retains a wealth of original features including exposed beams, sash windows, latch doors and impressive fireplaces which together create a home of immense charm and character.
The welcoming entrance hall/snug provides a versatile reception space and immediately sets the tone for the accommodation beyond. The dining room is a wonderful room for entertaining family and friends, centred around a feature brick fireplace with inset wood-burning stove. Beyond, the cosy sitting room enjoys an impressive inglenook fireplace, creating the perfect setting for relaxing evenings throughout the year.
The kitchen/breakfast room is both practical and inviting, fitted with a range of attractive units and work surfaces together with integrated appliances and space for an Aga, which may be available by separate negotiation. A stable door leads directly to the covered porch and garden beyond.
Three double bedrooms with period charm
Arranged over two floors, the accommodation continues upstairs with three delightful double bedrooms, each enjoying their own individual character. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, whilst the family bathroom features a roll-top bath, pedestal wash basin and WC. Useful eaves storage is also available.
Enchanting gardens backing onto open fields
Outside, the property is equally appealing. To the front, colourful cottage flowers frame the approach to the house, while to the rear the beautifully established gardens provide a peaceful and private retreat.
Laid principally to lawn and interspersed with mature shrubs, flowering borders and seasonal planting, the small cottage garden is alive with colour and birdsong throughout the year. Backing directly onto open countryside, they enjoy delightful views across neighbouring fields where grazing livestock often provide an ever-changing rural backdrop.
Whether enjoying a morning coffee, summer entertaining or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings, the gardens offer a wonderful connection with the countryside.

One of the aspects most loved by the current owners has been the peaceful setting and strong sense of community. Wittersham offers the charm of traditional village life with excellent local amenities, highly regarded schools and beautiful countryside walks on the doorstep.
The location also provides easy access to nearby beaches, the historic centres of Rye and Tenterden, and excellent transport links including high-speed rail services from Ashford International to London St Pancras.
A wonderful period home offering character, community and countryside views in equal measure
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully maintained Grade II Listed cottage in one of the area's most desirable villages, enjoying glorious views over open fields, private parking and the timeless appeal of country living.
