Accommodation

This Victorian semi-detached cottage is set in a popular residential road within a short walk of the local shops and eateries of Southborough and just around the corner from Pennington Recreation Ground, featuring play areas, outdoor gym equipment, and sports facilities. Enjoy beautiful country walks through The Common, farmland, and woodland, whilst only being 1.5 miles from the nearest mainline station and the A21.

Since 2015, the cottage has seen significant updates, including re-wiring, a new boiler installation, and modernised kitchen and bathroom. The home opens directly into a triple aspect kitchen/dining/sitting room with attractive timber flooring, creating a sociable and flexible living space. The sitting area features a woodburner, and there is ample room for a dining table and chairs. The cream shaker-style kitchen has oak work surfaces with a breakfast bar and includes an electric oven and gas hob with space for other freestanding appliances. Useful shelving and under-stairs storage enhance practicality and a stable door opens into the rear garden.

Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms with the rear bedroom having Velux rooflights as well as a view over the rear garden. The bathroom is generously proportioned and features a shower over the bath and there are two loft spaces providing handy storage.

Outside, there is a pretty walled courtyard garden to the front with side access to the south-west facing rear garden. An attached brick outbuilding houses the boiler and offers garden storage. The patio area leads to a good size, level-lawned garden that enjoys sunshine throughout the day and evening, a perfect space for relaxing and entertaining with the potential for keen gardeners to fill with their favourite plants.

This cottage combines modern updates with classic charm, making it an ideal first home or rental investment and is for sale with no onward chain.
