Sutton Road, Langley, ME17

A serene retreat with charm, character and eco-friendly living.

Nestled in a tiny hamlet down a quiet private lane, 2 Stone Cottages is a home where time slows down. The bustle of daily life melts away as you’re welcomed by birdsong, the gentle cluck of neighbours’ chickens, and the soothing stillness of the countryside. Yet this peaceful hideaway is only minutes from local shops, schools, and the rolling fields and orchards of Kent.

Dating back to around 1850, the extended ragstone cottage beautifully blends old-world character with modern living. Beams, flagstone floors and traditional features sit comfortably alongside oak flooring, Philips Hue smart lighting, and Hive smart heating.

The ground floor offers versatile living with two bedrooms (one currently used as a home office), a stylish shower/utility room, and a cosy sitting room. Here, a log burner set within a traditional stone fireplace creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the perfect place to relax on winter evenings.

At the heart of the home is the kitchen, with stone flooring and modern units, opening seamlessly into the bright garden room. This versatile space works beautifully as a dining room, family hub or a quiet retreat to enjoy the view. French doors extend the living space straight into the garden, making it ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Upstairs are two further bedrooms, including the tranquil principal suite with its own dressing room, and a modern family bathroom serving this floor. Together they form a calm, restful retreat away from the main living areas.

The garden is a sanctuary in its own right. Designed for beauty, sustainability and ease, it features an eco-friendly clover lawn that stays green year-round, dotted with delicate white flowers in summer. It requires little watering, no fertiliser, and provides a rich habitat for wildlife, while being safe for children and pets. The rest of the garden has been thoughtfully designed with evergreens for year-round colour, creating a haven of tranquillity with minimal upkeep.

Practical upgrades include a new boiler and radiators (2022), new double-glazed windows and doors (2022), professionally weatherproofed exterior with transferable 25-year warranty, and a roof inspected and spot-repaired in July 2025. Recently redecorated throughout in soft, timeless tones, the home feels fresh, calm and move-in ready.

2 Stone Cottages is more than just a home – it’s a lifestyle. A rare balance of peace, beauty and modern convenience, tucked away yet perfectly connected.
