Secluded, charming village home of great character, set within superb, part-walled gardens with a barn, double garage & ample off road parking.
Little Ryarsh is a charming attached property of mixed ages, originally dating from the 18th century with later additions and set well back from the road. The property, which is offered with no onward chain, is centrally located within the picturesque village of Ryarsh and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The versatile and well-proportioned property has been owned by the current vendors for over 40 years, and offers an incoming purchaser the scope to update. The property offers character features including sash windows, thumb latch doors, exposed ceiling and wall timbers and flagstone flooring. Also of note are the superb part-walled gardens which have a glorious southerly aspect, established planting and a high degree of privacy. Also of note is the double garage with storage above, plentiful off-road parking and a large barn, which is arranged over two floors and offers a wonderful development opportunity. Little Ryarsh sits within a secluded position, benefitting from excellent road and rail links, being approx. 2.4 miles and 2.9 miles from West Malling town and station, respectively.
Arranged over the ground floor is a well-proportioned sitting room with ceiling timbers, a fireplace inset with a wood burner-style electric fire and doors to the garden, a dining room and a conservatory with access to and views over the garden. There is also a large study which has access to the boot room.
A kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of wall and base units, a Belling range oven, space for appliances and a larder.
Completing this floor is a double bedroom with an adjacent shower room, a utility room, cloakroom and a useful storeroom.
Arranged over the first floor is the bright, triple aspect principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a Juliet balcony and en suite wet room. There are three further bedrooms, one with fitted storage and a family bathroom.
The charming part-walled garden has a glorious southerly aspect, with varied and established planting creating a high degree of privacy. A level area of lawn is interspersed by well-stocked shaped beds, with a paved terrace spanning the width of the property and a seating area, covered by a pergola and ideal for al fresco dining. A second delightful part-walled garden features mature planting, a greenhouse and a kitchen herb garden.
The adjoining two storey barn features striking Queen Post trusses and provides a wonderful development opportunity, subject to the necessary building consents. A large gravelled area provides ample parking with an adjacent double garage that has power and light connected, and a useful workshop at the rear of the barn.
