About this property
Short walk to all the many local amenities on offer in the town
Deceptively spacious accommodation arranged over 2 floors
Wonderful attached 3 bedroom Grade II Listed Maisonette
In need of some tlc & improvement / Much character & potential
Enviable location in the heart of sought-after Tenterden
Mainline station at Headcorn & High Speed service from Ashford
Although now in need of some modernisation and updating, on entering you know immediately that you are in a special home with huge amounts of character and potential. Not only are you struck by the lovely period features, but by the generous proportions of the rooms, set over two floors, which gives you the feel of being in a house.
The front door opens from a small balcony area on the first floor into a very generous entrance hall where original wide floorboards make a lovely feature. The modern kitchen, which has views towards the church, is large enough to eat in, but there is also a separate dining room with panelled walls which makes the perfect setting for evening entertaining. Just off of this is the lovely beamed sitting room which has views over the park and an open fire. A useful cloakroom completes the accommodation on this floor. On the second floor are a shower room and three good size bedrooms, the largest of which is incredibly spacious with good amounts of built-in storage.
Whilst this property would suit a number of different purchasers, it would be an ideal base for anyone looking for a welcoming retreat in the heart of Tenterden or a property that they can lock up and leave.
