Lords Cottages, Ashford Road, Sheldwich

4 Bedroom Terraced House for sale in

An enchanting Grade II Listed four-bedroom mid-terrace cottage, occupying a particularly generous and beautifully positioned plot in the sought-after village of Sheldwich.

Dating back to circa 1790, the property is rich in period character, with features including exposed brickwork, fully restored sash windows, stripped floorboards and intricate architraves throughout. The current owners have thoughtfully enhanced the home both aesthetically and practically, with the addition of two new bathrooms, a new boiler, and the installation of beautifully crafted replica sash windows and a charming stable door.

To the rear, the property enjoys an impressive west-facing garden extending to approximately 80 ft, with far-reaching views over open countryside. A shared driveway provides off-road parking for three vehicles and leads to a substantial double garage offering in excess of 1000 sq. ft. of space, benefitting from double length proportions and a first-floor mezzanine.

A pathway leads to the handsome front door which opens into a charming sitting room, featuring stripped floorboards and an exposed brick chimney breast with open fireplace. This flows through to the kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a range of wall and floor units housing all main appliances and enjoying delightful views over the rear garden through pretty casement windows. A rear lobby with recently installed stable door provides a practical divide between the kitchen and the utility/shower room, which has been updated to include a shower enclosure, basin, WC and space for laundry appliances.

To the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, both boasting attractive fireplaces and enviable views across rolling countryside. The second floor provides two further bedrooms and an elegant family bathroom, recently installed and featuring a bespoke vanity unit with built-in storage, basin, WC and bath with overhead shower.

OUTSIDE:

Number Two occupies a generous plot with a pretty front garden screened by mature hedging. The shared driveway provides parking for two to three vehicles and leads to the impressive double garage, measuring approximately 37 ft in depth and incorporating a first-floor office or studio space.

The rear garden is a particular highlight, extending to approximately 80 ft in length. A sunken patio is accessed directly from the house, whilst a pathway bordered by colourful planting leads to the main lawn, where the garden opens out to countryside views. Mature trees, established shrubs and additional seating areas create a private and idyllic outdoor setting.

SITUATION:

Lords Cottages are situated on Ashford Road, within the charming village of Sheldwich, whilst remaining conveniently positioned just outside the market town of Faversham.
