    About this property

    • Built circa 1870 with later additions, this attractive family home occupies a central yet discreet semi rural position just off Nellington Road, Rusthall.

      The property has been lovingly maintained by the same family since the early 2000s and offers flexible, well balanced accommodation. The heart of the home is an impressive Shaker style kitchen/breakfast room with direct access to the garden, complemented by a generous arrangement of living space throughout.

      The dual aspect sitting room is well proportioned and full of character, featuring a wood burning stove. This leads into two further reception rooms, currently used as a home office and children’s snug, though both have proved adaptable for a variety of uses over time.

      Upstairs, the house offers up to five bedrooms, served by two bathrooms/shower rooms. Notably, all rooms enjoy views over the garden, creating a strong connection between the house and its outdoor setting.

      The established gardens wrap around the property, offering a variety of seating areas ideal for enjoying sunny days. Expanses of lawn are interspersed with mature specimen trees and planting, providing ample space for both formal garden areas and recreational use.

    A hidden gem, tucked away yet just a short stroll from a bustling village high street, offering an increasingly strong choice of independent shops and eateries. The cottage enjoys a wonderful country feel, enhanced by its lovely gardens and level lawns, which create a fantastic theatre for heated sibling football matches.
