KEY FEATURES
SUMMARY
A wonderful Victorian end of terrace cottage with large mature gardens, along a quiet country lane in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, but still within easy reach of local villages, the M20 and the high-speed rail link at Ashford. To the rear is a useful brick outbuilding, timber potting shed/store and large mature garden which certainly offers further potential, subject of course to the necessary permissions.
