1 & 2 Old Cottages is a Grade 2 listed flint stone and red brick detached cottage that dates back to 17th Century. It has been lovingly restored and maintained by the current owners and retains many of its original features. It is set in a beautifully landscaped garden.
This is a rare opportunity to own this delightful four bedroom family home as the current owners have lived here for 50 years. The previous owners also resided here for over 50 years.
Retaining all of its original charm and character, the property has been sympathetically extended on one side, furthering the first and ground floor accommodation.
The property comprises of four bedrooms on the first floor with a snug/study area and en suite to the master bedroom.
The ground floor boasts two principle reception rooms with a wealth of beams, inglenook fireplace and log burning stoves. The living room retains the original baking ovens to the side.
The 18' kitchen/breakfast room has benefited from a superb 18' x 15' orangery to side sympathetically added, enhancing the already well-proportioned living space. The orangery enjoys spectacular views of the garden. The kitchen includes a traditional walk-in pantry and good sized utility room.
This house is surrounded by a wonderful, mature garden, just under an acre with a gated front. The garden was landscaped by the Chelsea Gold Award Winner, Whitelegg. It is beautifully laid out with various vistas and focal points to catch the eye. The top lawn hosts an herbaceous border sweeping down the west side of the garden, along with rose gardens and one of two feature ponds. There are a number of specimen trees: Persian Ironwoods, Golden Indian Bean tree, Tulip Tree, Mulberry tree to name a few. These form a series of copse separating the top and bottom lawns which transform in colour throughout the year with seasonal under planting. The bottom lawn features a Cobnut avenue and another more natural, wetlands pond with steppingstones. The house is surrounded by brick herringbone and York flagstones forming various seating, eating and entertaining areas.
The property is discreetly tucked away behind its detached garage with further parking,
Positioned in this popular semi-rural location on the edge of Leaves Green just outside Keston there is good access to both Bromley and the M25.
Local facilities can be found nearby at Biggin Hill as well as many country walks in the nearby green belt countryside.
