Three bedroom grade II listed cottage in peaceful village location!

Miles & Barr are delighted to present this well-presented three bedroom Grade II listed cottage, situated in the picturesque village of Sarre. Ideally positioned for convenient access to both Canterbury and Thanet, the village is also home to one of Kent's oldest public houses, The Crown Inn, historically known as the Old Established Halfway House due
to its location midway between Canterbury and Margate, and also as the Cherry Brandy House because of its long association with the famous liqueur.

Originally built in 1739, the property retains an abundance of period charm and character throughout. The ground floor comprises a cosy lounge featuring an exposed brick fireplace, alongside a modern fitted kitchen designed sympathetically to the age of the property, complete with solid wood worktops and a central island. From the kitchen, there is access to a versatile cellar, benefiting from natural light via a window, as well as power and lighting, making it suitable for a variety of uses.

The first floor offers a spacious principal bedroom, a further double bedroom, and a well appointed family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath. The second and final floor provides the third bedroom, creating flexible accommodation for families, guests or those working from home.

Externally, the property enjoys a secluded rear garden with a variety of mature trees and established planting, offering an excellent degree of privacy. There is a paved patio area with a covered hot tub, together with a versatile summerhouse benefiting from power and lighting. The garden is enclosed by a combination of wall and fence boundaries and also benefits from both side and rear access.

In our opinion, this charming cottage would make an ideal home for buyers seeking a character property in a sought after village setting. Homes of this calibre rarely become available, and an early internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this delightful property has to offer.

Location Summary

A pretty village situated between Canterbury and Margate, Sarre is famous for The Crown Inn, a Grade 1-listed 15th Century building also known as The Cherry Brandy House. This is the only place in the country where it's possible to buy cherry brandy made from a secret Huguenot recipe. Sarre was one of the Thanet ports that once bordered the Wantsum Channel before it silted over. Now located inland, Sarre is an attractive village with some lovely old brick houses. Golf and riding are available nearby. The surrounding fields and woodlands offer delightful walks and cycle rides, Sarre Penn Valley and Stodmarsh are excellent locations for bird-watching. If you’re looking for rural village life that is still only a 10 minute drive to the beautiful Kentish beaches and 20 minutes to historic Canterbury, then this could be the ideal spot for you.
