Allen Street, Maidstone

A highly desirable two-bedroom end-of-terrace period cottage, benefiting from off-road parking and an attractive, landscaped rear garden.

Creatively renovated a few years ago and more recently aesthetically enhanced by the current owners, this charming home features a vaulted kitchen ceiling, a thoughtfully converted basement, artistic décor throughout, and a beautifully landscaped rear garden, creating a unique and stylish living environment.

Dating back to1880, the property boasts a pale painted rendered façade complemented by contemporary uPVC windows. The front door is set beneath a distinctive projecting pitched porch, leading into a delightful sitting room with a chimney breast. A small opening remains in place, offering the potential to install a wood-burning stove if desired.

The sitting room flows through to an equally generous dining room, which enjoys views over the rear garden. From here, stairs descend to the converted basement, which offers good head height and is currently suitable for use as a guest bedroom or an ideal cinema or entertainment room.

The kitchen is a particular highlight, featuring a vaulted ceiling with pendant lighting and a window to the side return. There is a comprehensive range of wall and floor units incorporating a sink with mixer tap, cooker, and induction hob, while still allowing ample space for freestanding appliances.

The shower room is well appointed with a quadrant shower cubicle, wash basin set over a vanity unit, and WC.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. Access to the loft is available via a cupboard in the front bedroom, with wooden steps leading to the space, which offers further potential for conversion, subject to the necessary planning consents.

The rear garden has been thoughtfully enhanced, with patio paving extending directly from the back door and leading to a lawned area and a raised decking space, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation. At the rear of the garden, a gated access leads directly to the off-road parking space, which is accessed from Heathhorn Street.
