Estate Agents for Canterbury, Whitstable, Wye

One of a pair of period cottages situated down a country track and believed to be the former workers cottages to the estate. The property is on the periphery of Hothfield village and is set amongst wooded areas and open fields with farm buildings and a converted cottage behind. It is understood that the property, until recently, was tenanted for nearly 50 years and consequently now needs improvement/renovation. Accordingly, it is likely to attract a particular type of purchaser. We understand the next door cottage was extended a number of years ago and it is our opinion that this home would benefit likewise, subject to the usual planning consents.

From Ashford take the A20 Maidstone Road, continue along this road until Hothfield is signposted, left into Station Road. Follow this road into Hothfield, crossing onto School Road, continue bearing to your right onto West Street. Approximately ½ mile from the village having passed the Farm Developments you will see the cottages and farm buildings in the distance on your left, take the unmade track and number 2 is the second cottage.

Outside Undoubtedly a key feature of the property is its rural setting and the gardens to both front and rear enjoy this to the full. The rear garden measures approximately 96' x 33' and backs onto open countryside. There is an attractive brick built store shed which is in need of some attention but could make a nice addition to the overall property. To the side of the property is a concreted area which we understand from the vendor affords parking for the two cottages. (n.b. there is a shared septic tank and there is no gas to the cottage, next door does currently have gas supplied)
