Harvel Street, Harvel, Meopham, DA13

A charming character cottage built circa 1900 located within the sought after hamlet of Harvel on the outskirts of Meopham. There are 2/3 bedrooms and 2 reception rooms, detached garage and off-road parking for 4 further vehicles. Offered to the market with no onward chain.

Description

Barn Cottage was formally a farm barn converted to residential use in the early 1900's and was originally a thatched cottage having later been re-roofed. The current owners use the side door to enter the property which gives access to a hallway , downstairs WC and good size utility room. The kitchen breakfast room is fitted with units, ample work tops, oven, hob and extractor. The main reception room has a large woodburning stove set in an exposed brick chimney breast and patio doors out on to the rear garden. A second reception room with an open fire completes the ground floor accommodation. The first floor landing is currently arranged as a large open living area with bedrooms at either end. In our opinion this room could be partitioned to create a third bedroom and separate access to the other two bedrooms. There is a bathroom with shower over the bath and fitted vanity cupboards.

Outside the property are typical cottage style gardens to both front and rear with areas of lawn and matures shrub and flower borders, there are also several mature trees. There are several sheds and wood stores to remain. A small area of the garden has been fence enclosed and contains the Calor gas tank and another shed. The property is entered via a five bar gate and has a central driveway with parking for two cars. There is also a driveway in front of the garage and in neighbouring Hart Lane. The detached single garage has been boarded on the inside but could be re-opened.
