The Street, Mereworth, Maidstone, ME18

Looking for a combined home and business with potential for a detached self-contained annexe? This remarkable property presents an extraordinary opportunity, boasting a charming four-bedroom detached cottage alongside versatile business premises. The cottage itself exudes character and warmth, featuring a spacious living and dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room, study area and a convenient utility room complemented by a downstairs shower room. Upstairs, there are four inviting bedrooms and a family bathroom, offering ample space for the whole family. The whole property is filled with character but now in need of modernisation.

Step outside into the enchanting enclosed gardens, with lawns, planted borders, mature trees, and a pond with trickling water feature. Additionally, a private courtyard garden is found at the rear in two sections.

But that's not all this property also includes a detached garage with a workshop and a loft room with great potential for conversion to a self-contained annexe (subject to the usual consents), as well as a driveway for three cars. Moreover, the adjoining business premises feature a large workshop and shop with retail and B1 engineering permissions. Whilst the building does need some work, the footprint offers great potential for a variety of uses in addition to the existing (stp) such as a hair or beauty salon, village store or office to name a few. There is of course potential to demolish the existing structure and extend the home also subject to the usual consents.

Don't miss your chance to make this unique property your own we look forward to showing you around in person to explore the potential together.
