Selling Road, Selling, Faversham

A charming semi-detached three-bedroom cottage, ideally situated in a highly desirable location with far-reaching countryside views, nestled between a charming village and the market town of Faversham.

Built in the late 1800s, the property has undergone significant enhancements in recent years by the current owner, who has thoughtfully and creatively improved the home with many aesthetic enhancements. Additions include a self-contained studio, bringing the total accommodation to over 1,800 sq ft.

The dark weatherboard façade beautifully complements the timber-framed windows and contemporary front door, which opens into a spacious entrance hall complete with a coat cupboard and staircase rising to the first floor.

The ground floor offers an impressive open-plan living space with clearly defined areas for relaxing, dining, and cooking. The sitting room centres around a wood-burning stove, set beneath an oak bressummer beam and framed by an exposed brick chimney breast. A galleried landing overlooks the cellar below, currently used as a home office and flooded with natural light from a large window.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well-appointed with a range of cabinetry incorporating integrated appliances, including a double oven, microwave, gas hob, wine cooler, dishwasher, and washing machine. A breakfast bar is illuminated by pendant lighting and enhanced by natural light from bi-fold doors, while a walk-in larder and convenient cloakroom add further practicality.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a well-presented family bathroom, complete with a separate shower, bathtub, vanity unit with basin, and WC. The principal bedroom is dual aspect, enjoying stunning views over unspoilt countryside and benefiting from a generous walk-in wardrobe.
