Fine & Country presents Mount Castle Cottage, a beautifully composed period home with attached two-bedroom annexe, two outbuildings and the adjacent Mount Castle Barn, which benefits from having Prior Approval Granted and designs for a four-bedroom, single storey attached dwelling. Together they form a charming rural setting within mature formal gardens, paddock, and land option, quietly nestled within a tranquil hamlet at the end of Mount Castle Lane, surrounded by open countryside at the foot of the Kentish North Downs.

The double fronted cottage radiates character and warmth, its 18th century origins enriched by elegantly modernised interiors. Two reception rooms, each with a feature fireplace, create inviting spaces for family life and entertaining, while the kitchen and utility enjoy peaceful garden views. Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms and a refined family bathroom with a freestanding roll-top bath complete the home’s graceful, balanced layout.

The attached annexe offers independent yet connected living, perfect for guests, relatives or those seeking multigenerational flexibility. With its own entrance, garden and services, it presents a rare opportunity for adaptable family living or a self-contained letting option.

The formal gardens are beautifully tended, framed by mature trees, flowering borders and wide lawns that flow naturally into the surrounding land. A log cabin home office and timber workshop provide useful additional space for work or hobbies, and the overall setting is both practical and deeply tranquil.

Perfectly placed between Maidstone and Ashford, the property enjoys easy access to the nearby villages of Lenham and Charing, both of which offer shops, schools and mainline stations. Ashford International lies just over ten miles away, providing high speed rail links to London.

Please note, Mount Castle Cottage, to include the annexe, and grounds of approximately one acre, and Mount Castle Barn, to include grounds in-excess of two acres, are being marketed with the option to purchase independently. Please contact Fine & Country for further details and pricing.
