Located within the heart of the village of Herongate and within close, proximity to local country parks and amenities is this beautiful 18th Century, Grade II listed, detached cottage. Within easy reach of Thorndon Country Park with excellent access to the A127 linking to the M25. The property also benefits from off street parking, at the side of the property for several vehicles.
You approach this stunning property through the pretty front garden with shrubbery marking the boundary for privacy. When entering the porch, you start to understand the character and elegance of this stunning historical cottage. To either side of the porch are two cosy sitting rooms, both with impressive red brick fireplace and feature beams. Leading from the living room is a dining room, which previously housed the shop for the old village bakery which still has the original shop window and entrance door with wooden flooring. Leading from these reception rooms is the impressive kitchen which has been renovated by the current owners to form part of a later extension. The Island provides a breakfast bar with storage, vaulted ceilings, and Velux windows, with an additional storage cupboard. The contrasting colour units offer many integrated appliances, ample storage, and a Range Master oven with gas hob. The cabinetry is enhanced by the stunning Iroko, wooden work surfaces and limestone floor tiles, throughout. Accessing both from the kitchen and the second reception is the large utility room with space for washing machine, dryer, additional cabinetry for storage and a door leading to the garden.
Remaining on the ground floor, accessed from the kitchen are two of the four bedrooms, a family, three-piece bathroom with a large double shower, all decorated to an excellent standard whilst keeping of the period charm. The large bedroom has built in wardrobes, to remain, whilst the smaller of the bedrooms has double doors leading onto the external garden.
On the first floor, accessed from a hallway from the kitchen are a further two bedrooms and another three-piece bathroom, to include bath. Both bedrooms benefit from charming views with the larger room having an impressive red brick fireplace.
Externally is an immaculate garden, paved to part lawn, an excellent space for entertaining with family and friends. The original grain loft above the kitchen is now used for storage with a separate grain store providing more storage which can be accessed from the garden. The existing oven from the original bakery is now in pride and place as a feature at the rear of the garden.
This property is a hidden gem in the heart of Herongate and has been restored and renovated by the current owners to the highest of standards.
