Hampton Park Road, Hadlow, Tonbridge, Kent

This delightful four bedroom extended period cottage has all the attributes associated with a charming rural home nestling in an AONB, located near the village of Hadlow. It backs onto fields and the surrounding countryside and includes a variety of public footpaths. The property is approached along a driveway flanked by a lawn and high hedging and, with its high chimneystacks, patterned brick walls, barge boards and multi-pane casement windows, has great curb appeal and the charm continues as you cross the threshold.

There is a spacious dual aspect lounge with wood flooring, three bi-fold doors to the rear terrace and a real fire. Doors from the lounge and the hall lead to the contemporary dual aspect kitchen/dining room with units housing a variety of appliances. Plenty of space is available for a good sized table and chairs in the attractive dining area that includes a brick surround fireplace, fitted shelving and bi-fold doors to the terrace. There is also a cloakroom and a family room that could also make an excellent office.

Upstairs is a family bathroom and four bedrooms with rural views and partially vaulted ceilings. There is a single with a fireplace and a built in cupboard, a double with a fireplace and fitted cupboards, a dual aspect double and the master with an en suite shower and fitted bedroom furniture.

The rear garden has a superb sunken terrace with steps up to a large lawn and a substantial shed constructed on a solid concrete base with its own electrics supply that could always be updated to become an outdoor office/studio.

What the owners say: We moved here over seven years ago and have loved every minute of it. We were blown away by the views and will be sorry to leave but we are starting a new chapter in our lives. During our time here we have modernised the property, built the shed and installed a private fibre optic high speed internet system.

We are only a mile from the historic village of Hadlow. It is in a Conservation Area with many period buildings, a good primary school and the Hadlow College of Agriculture and Horticulture. There are also shops, pubs, hairdresser, restaurant, a church, library and a medical centre as well as cricket and bowls clubs and activities in the village hall.

What the Owner says:

We moved here with our young family over seven years ago and we have all loved every minute of it, particularly having the fields and countryside on our doorstep. We were blown away by the views as soon as we walked into the cottage and will be sorry to leave but we are starting a new chapter in our lives. During our time here we have modernised the property, built the shed and installed a private fibre optic high speed internet system.
We are only a mile from the historic village of Hadlow. It is in a Conservation Area with many of its attractive period buildings including the famous Hadlow Tower or ‘May's Folly'.
