Property Description: Guide Price £650,000 - £675,000. Discover the epitome of country living in this outstanding semi-detached period cottage, circa 1790, located in the peaceful and secluded village of Bilsington and just a short walk away from the 5 star rated White Horse country pub. Immaculately renovated in recent years, this stunning property has been taken back to brick and refurbished to a high spec finish, offering the perfect blend of timeless charm and modern comfort.

Step inside and be immediately captivated by the beautiful open-plan living space, featuring spotlight lighting, exposed oak beams, and exquisite oak flooring. The in-ceiling surround system adds a touch of luxury, allowing you to immerse yourself in your favourite music or movies. There is a central fireplace housing a double sided log burner. The dining room has bi-fold doors that open out onto the sandstone patio, just perfect for summer dining.

The heart of this exquisite home is the stunning bespoke Shaker kitchen, boasting granite surfaces, a spacious centre island, a charming butler sink, and underfloor heating. The separate utility room provides added convenience for your everyday needs and leads to the ground floor shower room. For even more convenience, there is a boot room with direct access to the grounds, meaning those beautiful country walks don't have to take a toll on the inside flooring.

Upstairs, you'll find four spacious double bedrooms all with vaulted ceilings. The principal bedroom boasts a walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious en-suite shower room, complete with modern fixtures and fittings and underfloor heating. There is an additional family bathroom on the upper floor with underfloor heating and both a freestanding bath and separate shower, ensuring convenience for the whole family.

No detail has been overlooked or expense spared in the creation of this remarkable cottage. In 2015, the current owners ensured an outstanding and very sympathetic refurbishment having stripped the property back to brick and creatively upgraded and extended it to an exceptional standard. A new Ariston boiler has been installed, there is double glazing throughout and the property has been re-wired and re-plumbed with new radiators.

All the luxury in a picture perfect traditional Kentish cottage offered with no onward chain.

Outside: Remote control gated access leads you to an oak-framed double garage, fitted with remote control roll top doors, ensuring both security and ease of use. There is a resin driveway with parking for up to three cars and an external CCTV and app enabled alarm system.

The beautifully landscaped and well-established rear garden awaits. Picture-perfect and private, it is the ideal space for outdoor entertaining, family gatherings, or simply indulging in some tranquil relaxation. With country walks on your doorstep and the local country pub just a few hundred feet away, you can enjoy the best of rural living.

For those needing to commute, easy access to Hamstreet train station, with direct links to London and the High Speed, makes this property a true gem for city professionals seeking a peaceful retreat after a busy day or families that like to venture out in their spare time.

Location: Bilsington is a village and civil parish in the Ashford district of Kent. The village is south of Ashford, on the B2067, Hamstreet to Hythe road just north of the Royal Military Canal. The village has a historic grade II* listed church, St Peter and St Paul that dates from around the second half of the 13th century when the Priory of St Augustine probably impropriated it. The Priory can be seen north east of the church, 3⁄4 of a mile away, but it was surrendered to the crown in 1535. The Aldington Gang are said to have used the Priory during some of their smuggling exploits of the 1820s. Today the Priory is a wedding and conference centre and also hosts the odd Ghost Hunt besides serving a lovely afternoon tea. Inside the church, the Nave has four windows which are 14th century in style and there are some original fragments of glass present. There is a blocked Norman window. Above the chancel arch hangs the Royal arms of George III, dated 1774. Above the door into the tower is a stone bearing a carving which may well be the oldest surviving work in the church dating from about the 12th century. The most striking feature in the village is the 58 feet high Cosway memorial obelisk dedicated to a local landowner who lost his life in a coaching accident. Bilsington Cricket Club has a long and proud history.

Bilsington is just under 7 miles away from the centre of Ashford and is also approximately 3 miles from Hamstreet train station that has direct links to London with the High Speed link from Ashford International Station. With nursery schools, primary and secondary schools all in close proximity of each other this is only a taster of what Ashford has to offer. There are lots of local shops, restaurants, take aways, beauticians, a doctors' surgery, churches and halls as well as the town centre and train station not being far away by foot, car or public transport. Junctions 9 and 10 of the M20 aren’t far away and the William Harvey Hospital has an Accident and Emergency department, various clinics and a labour ward. Ashford International Train Station proudly operates the High Speed Rail link which can take you to Ebbsfleet International, Stratford International and London St Pancras in just 38 minutes.
