3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Fir Tree Cottage, Courtenay Road, Denstroude CT2

A charming semi-detached three-bedroom rural residence occupying over two acres of beautiful grounds, with enviable views of rolling countryside.

Fir Tree was built in the early 1900s and was originally farmworkers’ cottages. It has since been owned by one family for almost 50 years. During this time, the property has been extended and improved, but it now presents an excellent opportunity to modernise and further enhance.

The façade is primarily exposed brick, complemented by pretty uPVC windows that replicate the original style.

The main entrance is located to the side of the property and opens into an entrance lobby with a cloakroom, which in turn leads directly into the kitchen.

The kitchen features an array of wall and floor units surrounding several integrated appliances. The main living area is completely open plan, with the staircase creating a natural division between two reception areas.

The stairs lead to the first floor, where you’ll find a well-appointed family bathroom and two double bedrooms—one with fitted wardrobes and the other with dual-aspect views.

On the second floor is the main bedroom, which enjoys far-reaching views over rolling countryside.

Outside:

Fir Tree Cottage occupies a generous plot of approximately 2.20 acres of beautiful grounds, complemented by several outbuildings that could be further developed, subject to individual requirements and the necessary planning consents.

The gated driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles, while the gardens on either side of the driveway are bordered by established hedging.

Beyond the gardens are fenced paddocks, ideal for keeping horses. Additional features include a double garage, workshops, stables, and further outbuildings exceeding 1,200 sq.ft. Offering excellent storage potential.
