This cottage enjoys a superb location and for me the layout is just right. -- Greg Wood, Director.

#TheGardenOfEngland

A most attractive period cottage, beautifully presented and thoughtfully extended, enjoying a delightful setting along a quiet country lane with a charming cottage garden.

Within a short stroll of the sought-after village of Boughton Lees and the picturesque church at Boughton Aluph. Wye mainline station is just a few minutes’ drive away, with the wider amenities of Ashford also within easy reach.


The cottage retains a wealth of period character, including exposed timbers and bricks. In recent years, the property has been the subject of a comprehensive programme of improvement, most notably the addition of a contemporary dining extension with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden. This creates a light-filled, open-plan arrangement with the kitchen, ideally suited to modern living and entertaining. A welcoming sitting room is centred around a log-burning stove and to the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, served by a well-appointed shower room and further bathroom on the ground floor, adjacent to a helpful study.
Outside, the property benefits from off-street parking to the front, while the principal garden lies to the side, thoughtfully landscaped and well stocked with flowering perennials to provide year-round interest. The garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and incorporates a number of seating areas, together with a garden shed.
The surrounding area offers an appealing balance of rural charm and convenience. Boughton Lees provides a traditional village green, cricket ground and public house, while Boughton Aluph is home to a historic church and hosts the well-regarded Stour Valley Music Festival during the summer months.

The property occupies a highly convenient semi-rural position between Wye and Ashford, with excellent access to the A28 linking Canterbury and beyond. Wye offers a good range of day-to-day amenities including a mainline railway station, local shops, public houses, 3 schools and nursery and a doctor’s surgery, while Ashford provides a more comprehensive selection of shopping and leisure facilities, together with high-speed rail services to London St Pancras in approximately 37 minutes and access to the M20 motorway.
The surrounding countryside is particularly attractive, with a network of footpaths weaving through orchards, farmland and open countryside. King's Wood lies a short distance away and is especially noted for its spectacular bluebell displays in spring.
