** PARKING FOR 4+ VEHICLES ** Stud Croft is a beautifully presented 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom former stable for the nearby listed property, Bishops, a hall house in Avery Lane dating back to the late 15th century. The huge Kent peg tile roof originally covered a hay loft above the stables and the former entrance to the loft can be seen from the rear garden. The stable was originally converted in the 1930's and then was further improved to create upstairs accommodation in 1995. Stud Croft, adjacent to Buglehorn Cottages and Stud Cottage, all formed part of the Bishops Estate and were used to house estate workers. More recently, the current owners added a garden room and improved and increased the sizes of the upstairs bathroom and bedrooms.
The ground floor of the property comprises inviting entrance hall, large sitting room with log burner, a fabulous family room and dining area, a spacious kitchen/breakfast room, bedroom 2, shower room, and large linen cupboard. Upstairs, there is the double aspect main bedroom with access to a roof top terrace, bedroom 3 leading to a large loft room, and a family bathroom with bath and shower unit.
Externally, the garden was re-designed and levelled for easy maintenance with raised beds, brick paths and a sunny arbour seat. There are two terraces, one near the house for breakfast in the morning sun and the other at the top of the garden for evening drinks.
Additional benefits include double glazed windows throughout and an attractive new front door. The oil fired boiler was recently replaced with a Grant blue flame 95%+ efficient boiler with magnetic filtration and intelligent power pumping system. The oil tank was replaced at the same time with one that is double bunded. There is parking to the front for a minimum of two vehicles in front of the side gate, as well as a hardstanding area just down the road for residents only. Council Tax Band: F.
Location - The popular village of Otham is served by a parish church and is close to a comprehensive range of schools and shops. Fruit farming is a tradition in the area, with two of the largest Kentish fruit farmers, Chambers and Charltons, growing strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and apples. There are multiple country walks along quiet footpaths from the house. The adjoining picturesque village of Bearsted offers further amenities including a London line station. Maidstone, the county town of Kent, is approximately 4.5 miles distance. There is also an easy commute to the City of London from Staplehurst station.
